Impact of dragraking on the reproductive capacity of southern Gulf of St. Lawrence Irish moss (Chondrus crispus) / T. Chopin, J.D. Pringle, and R.E. Semple.: Fs70-8/87-90E-PDF

"A non-harvested bed of Chondrus crispus (Rustico) showed, year round, a greater carposporangial reproductive capactity than a dragraked bed (Miminegash). The former had a lower frond density but larger plants which were the major sources of reproduction. Although carposporangial sori had a greater area and were more often full in Miminegash, their reproductive capacity was higher in Rustico due to their higher number per frond and sample unit"--Abstract, page 2.
