Otolith phenotypic variability of the blue jack mackerel, Trachurus picturatus, from the Canary Islands (NE Atlantic): Implications in its population dynamic [PDF]
Studies have described the presence of different population units of blue jack mackerel, Trachurus picturatus, in the NE Atlantic region. However, the hypothesis of several populations has been subtly questioned due to the high similarity in the otolith shape among some regions.

The use of parasites as biological tags for discriminating stocks of blue jack mackerel, Trachurus picturatus (Osteichthyes, Carangidae), in the northeast Atlantic Ocean is assessed herein. In this study the following parasites have been selected as possible biological tags: Anisakis spp. (Nematoda: Anisakidae), Rhadinorhynchus sp.

Phenotypic variation in fish can indicate exposure to different environmental conditions, affecting species growth and maturation rates and/or be a consequence of genetic factors that allow fish adaptation to different environments. Understanding population structure and dynamics is extremely important for the establishment of sustainable fisheries ...

Use of Citizen Science to Determine Prey Partitioning Between Two Coastal Raptors. [PDF]
In Australia, Eastern Osprey (Pandion haliaetus cristatus) and White‐bellied Sea‐Eagle (Haliaeetus leucogaster) occupy the same ecological niche and are suspected of partitioning prey resources. This study investigated this through evaluating the breadth, overlap and partitioning of diets recorded from social media posts.

Assessment of a Social Media-Based Method for Determining Raptor Diet. [PDF]
This study mined social media as a citizen science method to reduce the time burden and biases associated with recording accurate diet information for predators. In total, 1985 prey observations were recorded of two Australian coastal raptors and were used to produce diet profiles that were compared by region, social media platform, and against other ...

Negative impact on the reproductive potential of blue jack mackerel Trachurus picturatus by Kudoa infection of the ovary [PDF]
Reproduction of Trachurus picturatus off the western Portuguese coast was studied over 1 yr. During histological analyses, the presence of Kudoa sp. was detected in advanced vitellogenic oocytes. Kudoa infections are known to cause economic loss through the induction of post-mortem liquefaction of fish muscles, but ovarian infection as reported in this

We compared acidified and lactic acid fermented silage approaches for the preservation of blue-jack mackerel. Silages acidified with formic and propionic acids had stable pH (3.8) and low (19 mg/g N) levels of volatile nitrogen compounds (total volatile basic nitrogen, TVBN), but relatively high (82 g/100 g) final non-protein-nitrogen (NPN) values. The

The populations of marine pelagic fishes, in particular the migratory ones as the Trachurus picturatus (Bowdich 1825), may be erroneously considered an homogenous population unit because they show broad geographic distributions, large population sizes ...

Stock assessment of the blue jack mackerel, Trachurus picturatus, in the North‐eastern Atlantic
AbstractA total of 49,151 blue jack mackerel, Trachurus picturatus, (Bowdich) was collected in Madeira Island (North‐eastern Atlantic) between 2002 and 2016 to evaluate possible influence of fishing on landings and reproductive parameters. A decreasing trend in the length composition was observed over the study period and length at first maturity ...
