The catch of the day: The shortcomings of promoting sustainable seafood consumption in Peru
This study investigates the meaning and application of “catch of the day” in Peru by analyzing 233 news articles and genetically testing 43 fish samples from restaurants. Results show that media frequently use the term as a vague marketing phrase, while genetic testing reveals a 60% mislabeling rate. These findings suggest that “catch of the day” lacks

Petroleum hydrocarbons are one of the primary organic chemicals found in water bodies, and the water-soluble fraction of petroleum (WSFP) may be responsible for much of the toxic effects. In the present study, genotoxicity assays and histopathological analysis of the gills were analyzed for two experimental protocols: 1) Juvenile Centropomus parallelus

The scarcity of functional females in wild Centropomus undecimalis populations limits broodstock development for aquaculture. This study evaluated feminization of this protandrous hermaphroditic teleost under different salinity conditions using 17β‐estradiol (E2), administered orally to juveniles and via intramuscular implants to adults.

The Interplay of Biotic and Abiotic Factors in Shaping Genetic Variation at 6Pgdh in the Bulb Mite
We used experimental evolution to track changes in 6Pgdh allele frequencies in bulb mites over 13 generations under different temperatures and sexual selection intensities. Our results show that the F allele increases in frequency only at low temperatures under strong sexual selection, indicating that the maintenance of genetic variation in this system
