A first estimate of white shark, Carcharodon carcharias, abundance off Central California. [PDF]
The decline of sharks in the global oceans underscores the need for careful assessment and monitoring of remaining populations. The northeastern Pacific is the home range for a genetically distinct clade of white sharks ( Carcharodon carcharias ). Little is known about the conservation status of this demographically

Mitochondrial genome of an Atlantic white shark (Carcharodon carcharias). [PDF]
Here we report the first full mitochondrial genome sequence for a white shark caught in the Atlantic Ocean. The mitochondrial genome is 16,745 bp in length and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNA genes, 2 rRNA genes, and a non-coding control region. The base composition of this mtDNA lineage is A: 30.7%, C: 26.9%, G: 13.8%, and T: 28.6%.
