Influence of Salting Technology on the Diffusion of NaCl in Swordfish (Xiphias gladius) Fillets
Foods, 2022 Swordfish is the most widespread billfish in the aquatic environment. The industrial processing of swordfish fillets involves salting, drying, and smoking steps. Salting techniques, dry or wet, are the most common method of fish preservation.

A Standardized Abundance Index from Fishery Independent Data: A Case Study of Swordfish (Xiphias Gladius) from Indonesian Tuna Longline Fishery [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2020 Most varieties of the billfish caught in the Indian Ocean are either swordfish or Indo-Pacific sailfish. Swordfish is mostly considered as by-catch from tuna longline fisheries, except for South African, Spanish and Portuguese fleets.

The shark-tuna dichotomy: why tuna lay tiny eggs but sharks produce large offspring [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 Teleosts such as tunas and billfish lay millions of tiny eggs weighing on the order of 0.001 g, whereas chondrichthyes such as sharks and rays produce a few eggs or live offspring weighing about 2% of adult body mass, as much as 10 000 g in some species.

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The ray‐finned fishes include one out of every two species of living vertebrates on Earth and have an abundant fossil record stretching 380 million years into the past. The division of systematic knowledge of ray‐finned fishes between paleontologists working on extinct animals and neontologists studying extant species has obscured the ...
