Genetic diversity and historical demography of Atlantic bigeye tuna (Thunnus obesus) [PDF]
Bigeye (Thunnus obesus) is a large, pelagic, and migratory species of tuna that inhabits tropical and temperate marine waters worldwide. Previous studies based on mitochondrial RFLP data have shown that bigeye tunas from the Atlantic Ocean are the most interesting from a genetic point of view.

Development of Single-Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP)-Based Species-Specific Real-Time PCR Assays for Authenticating Five Highly Priced Tuna [PDF]
Tuna are economically important as food resources in food markets. However, because tuna is often processed into steaks or fillets, the meat can be difficult to identify through morphological features.

Cameras or Divers? How Baited Remote Underwater Videos and ‘Long Swims’ Underwater Visual Census Complement Each Other on Coral Reefs [PDF]
This study compares baited remote underwater videos (BRUV) and a rapid timed long swim (LS) UVC method to evaluate their ability in assessing relative abundance and diversity of large predatory reef fish from nine selected families. BRUVs were more effective in detecting mobile and bait‐attracted taxa such as Carangidae and recorded up to 28 unique ...

Genetic structuring and migration patterns of Atlantic bigeye tuna, Thunnus obesus (Lowe, 1839). [PDF]
Large pelagic fishes are generally thought to have little population genetic structuring based on their cosmopolitan distribution, large population sizes and high dispersal capacities. However, gene flow can be influenced by ecological (e.g. homing behaviour) and physical (e.g.

Length-frequency compositions and weight–length relations for bigeye tuna, yellowfin tuna, and albacore (Perciformes: Scombrinae) in the Atlantic, Indian, and eastern Pacific oceans [PDF]
Background. Bigeye tuna, Thunnus obesus (Lowe, 1839); yellowfin tuna, Thunnus albacares (Bonnaterre, 1788); and albacore, Thunnus alalunga (Bonnaterre, 1788), are very important species for world fisheries.
