A Molecular Analysis of Atlantic Menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus) Stock Structure
Atlantic menhaden is an ecologically and economically important species along the U.S. east coast. As a filter-feeder and key prey fish, it provides a critical link between primary production, phytoplankton, and larger piscivorous predators, such as ...

Growth of Age-0 Atlantic menhaden (BREVOORTIA TYRANNUS) in Two Tidal Freshwater Tributaries of Chesapeake Bay [PDF]
Few studies have described growth rates of age-0 Atlantic menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus). Growth rates from tidal freshwater habitats of the Mattaponi and James Rivers, Virginia in 2009 were described and compared using otolith microstructural analyses.

ABSTRACT Plant‐based proteins, such as soybean meal (SBM), have shown promising results in cultured species but also present challenges due to their nutrient composition and inherent antinutritional factors. This study investigated how the replacement of solvent‐extracted SBM with low oligosaccharide soybean meal (LSBM) or enzyme‐treated soybean meal ...

Shellfish aquaculture can provide ecosystem services including habitat support for fish and crustaceans. This function has been well studied on oyster farms, but less is known about clam farms. To assess habitat usage on a commercial hard clam Mercenaria

Evaluating the effects of Atlantic menhaden management and environmental change on the northwest Atlantic Ocean ecosystem [PDF]
Atlantic Menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus) is an abundant forage fish species whose management has recently shifted from using single species reference points to ecological reference points.

Abstract This study evaluated the effects of dietary supplementation with ALLPRO, a source of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA—C22:6n‐3, 126 g kg−1 dry weight) and nucleotides (5 g kg−1 dry weight), on Nile tilapia farmed in southern Brazil during autumn, winter, and spring.

Environmental DNA metabarcoding detected consistent patterns in microhabitat use of fish species within lakes and tidal creeks. Although richness was similar among microhabitats, multivariate analyses revealed fine‐scale community differentiation aligned with known habitat preferences, demonstrating eDNA reveals habitat use at spatial scales of tens‐of‐

An RNA:DNA-based index of growth in juvenile Atlantic menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus): laboratory calibration and field assessment [PDF]
Atlantic menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus) is an ecologically and economically important species in the mid-Atlantic coastal ecosystem. Its population dynamics are influenced by growth and survival during juvenile occupancy in estuarine nursery habitats ...

Using DNA Metabarcoding of Cloacal Swabs to Elucidate the Diets of Four Coastal Shark Species
The Atlantic sharpnose (Rhizoprionodon terraenovae), blacknose (Carcharhinus acronotus), blacktip (Carcharhinus limbatus), and bonnethead (Sphyrna tiburo) sharks are commonly encountered large mobile consumers found in the estuaries along the western ...

Metabolism of dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) by juvenile Atlantic menhaden Brevoortia tyrannus [PDF]
Dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) synthesized by marine phytoplankton is the princi- pal source of dimethylsulfide (DMS), an important climate-affecting gas. Prior research has demon- strated that grazing by invertebrate phytoplanktivores often affects the dynamics of DMS production from algal DMSP, but the effects of grazing by phytoplanktivorous fish
