Abstract

Patterns in the amount of RNA and DNA in six species of larval fish in Conception Bay Newfoundland are studied As the amount of DNA increases the distribution of the ratio of RNA to DNA contracts towards its highest values This is interpreted to mean that RNA/DNA is an indication of survival probability and that survival probability is a quantity that tends to persist through a larvas life Comparisons among species indicate that the greatest degree of contraction the strongest selection pressure is associated with the highest mortality rates There is evidence that variability in RNA/DNA is introduced around the time of yolksac absorption
