EST-Microsatellite Types and Structural Scenarios in European Hake Fisheries [PDF]
A fishery’s structure and connectivity are priors to its effective management. A successful description of such processes depends on both the sampling design and the choice of adequate genetic markers.

A metabarcoding approach for the feeding habits of European hake in the Adriatic Sea [PDF]
AbstractEuropean hake (Merluccius merluccius) is one of the most economically important fish for the Mediterranean Sea. It is an important predator of deep upper shelf slope communities currently characterized by growth overexploitation: the understanding of hake's diet might support next generation management tools.

Local host fish-Anisakis spp. parasite lipid interplay: A lipidomic characterization of Anisakis larvae and parasitized tissue of its host fish, the European hake (Merluccius merluccius) [PDF]
Anisakid nematodes are widespread marine parasites with zoonotic potential and possible impact on fish nutritional quality. In this study, we investigated the lipid composition of L3 Anisakis larvae, the host fish tissue adjacent to the presence of ...
