The potential use of derivatives to manage the price risk of seafood markets: the case of sole and cuttlefish in France [PDF]
Taking into consideration the changes in the rules for the price support for agricultural and sea products, it seems appropriate to find out what other means could be used to cover the price risk in order to protect the commercial margin of these sectors

Transposon Ecology and the Octopus Genome
Transposable elements (TEs) are mobile strands of DNA prevalent in octopus genomes. TE activity in the octopus brain might reflect an organism‐beneficial role in cognition; or could be a deleterious byproduct of TE parasitism. Viewing TEs from a genome‐ecology perspective generates novel predictions about differential expression levels across “genomic ...

Continuous Inking Affects the Biological and Biochemical Responses of Cuttlefish Sepia pharaonis
Several marine mollusks, including cephalopods (cuttlefish, squid, and octopus) and gastropods (e.g., sea hares), can release a colored ink secretion when chased by predators or stimulated.

Offshore exposure experiments on cuttlefish indicate received sound pressure and particle motion levels associated with acoustic trauma [PDF]
Recent findings on cephalopods in laboratory conditions showed that exposure to artificial noise had a direct consequence on the statocyst, sensory organs, which are responsible for their equilibrium and movements in the water column.

Identification of 180 million years old, probably unchanged melanine [PDF]
The comparison of the infrared spectra of recent sepia melanine and of the content of the ink sac of fossilized cuttlefish indicates that the 180 million years old substance is unchanged melanine. Both substances behave identically on heating.

The use of Depletion methods to assess Mediterranean cephalopod stocks under the current EU Data Collection Framework [PDF]
Fuelled by the increasing importance of cephalopod fisheries in Europe, scientists and stakeholders have demanded their assessment and management. However, little has been done to improve the data collection under the EU Data Collection Framework (DCF ...

Socioeconomic assessment of marine fisheries of Thailand [PDF]
Thailand is currently one of the ten largest fishing nations in the world. In 1996, fish production reached 3.7 million t with 90% of the production coming from the marine fisheries sector and 10% from inland fisheries.
