Effect of visual and electrosensory deterrents on captive elasmobranchs
Abstract Commercial gillnet fisheries interact with a wide range of elasmobranch species, many of which are incidentally captured as bycatch. Deterrent technologies have emerged as a potential approach for reducing interactions with threatened elasmobranchs.

ABSTRACT Kudoa thyrsites is a myxosporean parasite that infects the skeletal muscle of various teleost fish species globally. Severe infections lead to ‘soft flesh’ in fish fillets, resulting in food spoilage and subsequent discard. While K. thyrsites has previously been identified in migratory Atlantic mackerel in the northern Northeast Atlantic Ocean,

ABSTRACT Pradofloxacin is approved orally for dogs and cats and parenterally for cattle and pigs in the U.S. The objective was to determine the pharmacokinetics of pradofloxacin in loggerhead turtles (Caretta caretta) and whether the plasma concentration is sufficient to treat susceptible bacteria.

The cost of aquafeed continues to constrain aquaculture production amidst the availability of locally available ingredients for feed formulation and technological opportunities. Information dissemination and innovative rethinking on the utilization of local opportunities and youthful labor may spur the growth of the sector, thus improving fish protein.

ABSTRACT Sublethal effects of bycatch in elasmobranchs are typically assessed using short‐term survival metrics, yet post‐release pathology remains poorly documented. We report in situ observations of a flapper skate (Dipturus intermedius) in the northeast Atlantic exhibiting skeletal and soft‐tissue abnormalities—vertebral deformation, truncation of ...

Gender‐Based Violence in Pacific Fisheries
Coastal and offshore fisheries play a vital role in the Pacific Island economies, food security and cultural heritage. While the past two decades has seen increased recognition of gender dimensions of fisheries, managers, practitioners and industry partners have not yet tackled the problem of gender‐based violence (GBV) in the sector.

Scientiometric analysis of the capture of elasmobranchs as bycatch off the Amazon coast
Fisheries impact aquatic resources, with many species taken as bycatch, and thus represent a global threat to many species, in prticular, the elasmobranchs.
