Species Development state Trait Primary Data Secondary Data
Perca flavescens Egg Temperature for incubation 15°C [Recommended temperature of 15°C] 15.0 °C
Perca flavescens Egg Degree-days for incubation 80-110 [At a temperature of 15°C] 95.0 °C * day
Perca flavescens Larvae Reaction to light Yellow perch are strongly attracted to light before they reach 50 mm Photopositive
Perca flavescens Female Oocyte development Group-synchronous Group-synchronous
Perca flavescens Female Onset of oogenesis Rapid increase of oocyte diameter from late July to November-December ['July', 'August', 'September', 'October', 'November', 'December']
Perca flavescens Female Intensifying oogenesis activity The increase of temperature in March induces the completion of vitellogenesis, resulting in a sharp increase of GSI before spawning ['March']
Perca flavescens Spawning conditions Spawning season Spawning period extends from March to late June ['March', 'June']
Perca flavescens Spawning conditions Spawning temperature Ranging from 7 to 20°C [Usually 10-13°C] 11.5 °C

Sander lucioperca Female Oocyte development Group-synchronous Group-synchronous
Sander lucioperca Female Oogenesis duration The gonald recrusdescence starts much later in pikeperch then in walleye and vitellogenesis is also completed later on No data
Sander lucioperca Spawning conditions Spawning season From April to mid-summer ['April', 'July', 'August', 'September']
Sander lucioperca Spawning conditions Spawning temperature 8-10 [Nothern part], to 10-14 [Southern part] 9.0 °C
Sander vitreus Egg Temperature for incubation 15°C [Recommended temperature of 15°C] 15.0 °C
Sander vitreus Egg Degree-days for incubation 80-110 [At a temperature of 15°C] 95.0 °C * day
Sander vitreus Larvae Initial larval size 4.8-9.5 [Extreme values] 7.15 mm
Sander vitreus Larvae Reaction to light Walleye are strongly attracted to light before they reach 32 mm Photopositive
Sander vitreus Larvae Temperature during larval development 17-20°C 18.5 °C
Sander vitreus Larvae Sibling intracohort cannibalism Walleye may turn cannibalistic at two stages during their early life stages. The first stage occurs within a week after hatching if zooplnakton is scarce in ponds, and the second stage develops about midsummer, when the young walleye are ready to feed on fish Present
