Project
Project code: vTI-FOE-08-29
Contract period: 01.01.2006
- 31.08.2009
Purpose of research: Basic research
The aim of this project is a reconstruction of the lifehistory of the European eel (Anguilla anguilla) in order to identify the effect of the abiotic environment to the sexdifferentation an parasitism.
