Nutritional Quality of the Edible Tissues of European Lobster Homarus gammarus and American Lobster Homarus americanus

open access: yesJournal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2009
The clawed lobsters Homarus gammarus and Homarus americanus are high-priced and appreciated food items in southern Europe. From a nutritional point of view there is still limited information on the chemical composition of edible tissues (muscle, hepatopancreas, and gonads) of both species.

Methods for Improving Settlement and Metamorphosis of Shelled Marine Mollusks in Aquaculture: A Review

open access: yesAquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 2, April 2026.
Settlement and metamorphosis are key developmental hurdles in marine mollusk aquaculture. Environmental signals (such as biofilms, algae, and signals from conspecifics) and biochemical pathways (including nitric oxide, thyroid hormones, catecholamines, and GABA) regulate the transition of larvae into benthic juveniles. Combining ecological observations

Limited Contribution of Small Marine Protected Areas to Regional Biodiversity: The Example of a Small Canadian No-Take MPA

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2017
Over 5,000 marine protected areas (MPAs) exist around the world. Most are small (median size of ~2 km2) and designed primarily for the conservation of a single flagship species. Internationally, there is an increasing focus on ecologically representative

Marine trophic architecture and hidden ecological connections in the Strait of Magellan: keystone species and ecosystem resilience

open access: yesOikos, Volume 2026, Issue 4, April 2026.
Understanding the ecological implications of species coexistence is central to biodiversity studies and to identify environmental and anthropogenic drivers of ecosystem dynamics, where ecological network analysis offers valuable insights. This study examines the complexity, structure, and potential responses to disturbances of the Strait of Magellan's ...

A synthetic crustacean bait to stem forage fish depletion

open access: yesGlobal Ecology and Conservation, 2016
Crustaceans, such as crab and lobster, comprise an important global food commodity. They are captured in traps using primarily forage fish (e.g. anchovies, herring, and menhaden), as bait.

Size at Maturity of Female American Lobsters from an Estuarine and Coastal Population [PDF]

open access: yes, 1988
The size at which female lobsters reach sexual maturity was determined for two populations that inhabit waters along the coast of New Hampshire. One group was captured in the Great Bay estuary, where water temperatures in the summer typically average ...

Neurotoxic non-protein amino acids in commercially harvested Lobsters (Homarus americanus H. Milne-Edwards)

open access: yesScientific Reports
Cyanobacteria produce neurotoxic non-protein amino acids (NPAAs) that accumulate in ecosystems and food webs. American lobsters (Homarus americanus H. Milne-Edwards) are one of the most valuable seafood industries in Canada with exports valued at > $2 ...

Economic Benefits of American Lobster Fishery Management Regulations [PDF]

open access: yes
A simulation model is used to compare measures for future management identified in the American lobster fishery management plan; specifically, increases in the minimum legal size and a modest reduction in aggregate fishing mortality are evaluated.

Polycentrism and Flux in Spatialized Management: Evidence from Maine\u27s Lobster (Homarus americanus) Fishery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Spatial approaches to fisheries management hold great promise but require continued conceptual and policy development. Polycentrism and flux emerge as useful concepts, drawing lessons from more customary, informal resourceuse patterns to produce more ...
