ANT Bait Common Carp Control Data

This is a dataset accompanying the 2017 publication “Assessing the efficacy of corn-based bait containing antimycin-a to control common carp populations using laboratory and pond experiments.” Data are included for the four experiments conducted described in this paper. First, data for a gavage experiment including mortality of carp per tank, fish metrics (lengths and weights), and water quality data (pH, dissolved oxygen, temperature). Second, data are included for the leaching trial including mortality of bluegill and carp, concentrations of antimycin in the tanks, fish metrics, and water quality metrics. Third, data are included for the species-specificity indoor trial. Included in this are mortality and sample...

Thiram Toxicity Data

This data is toxicity data for fish exposed to thiram. The number of trials and species used are: 8 trials on Bighead carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis), 8 trials on Bluegill Sunfish (Lepomis macrochirus), 4 trials on Fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas), 5 trials on Rainbow Trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), and 7 trials on Silver Carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix). The drc package from the R software was used to create an on-line web application. The combination of the web application and the toxicity data collected was used to suggest thiram, a fungicide, would be a selective toxiciant for bighead carp.
