Short-term size-specific distribution and movement patterns of juvenile flatfish in a Pacific estuary derived through length-frequency and mark-recapture data

open access: yesCiencias Marinas, 2009
Evaluating small-scale distribution and movement patterns of juvenile fishes within estuarine systems is necessary for identifying favorable nursery habitats and adequately interpreting local instantaneous growth and mortality estimates. Finescale, size-

Size selectivity of flatfish in trawl codends

open access: yesAquaculture and Fisheries
Flatfish constitute a substantial proportion of the catch in several demersal trawl fisheries across the globe. Therefore, knowledge on how to discriminate between the individuals that are to be captured or released, by size, is important for the ...

The origins of intensive marine fishing in medieval Europe: the English evidence [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
The catastrophic impact of fishing pressure on species such as cod and herring is well documented. However, the antiquity of their intensive exploitation has not been established. Systematic catch statistics are only available for ca.

Whole-genome sequence of a flatfish provides insights into ZW sex chromosome evolution and adaptation to a benthic lifestyle

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2014
Genetic sex determination by W and Z chromosomes has developed independently in different groups of organisms. To better understand the evolution of sex chromosomes and the plasticity of sex-determination mechanisms, we sequenced the whole genomes of a ...

Extinction of Flatfish [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1883
I HAVE been advised by Mr. Murray of the Challenger expedition to inquire, through your columns, whether the experience of any of your correspondents coincides with mine as to the gradual failure—in some places almost the extinction—of flatfish where whelk-gathering is prosecuted.

Characteristics of Trypsin Isolated From Intestines Different of Fish and Correlation Toward Trypsin Activity

open access: yesSqualen
Trypsin is a protease that breaks protein peptide bonds. Fish intestines can be used as an alternative raw material for trypsin. Trypsin enzymes from the intestines of different fish species have different characteristics.

A thyroid hormone regulated asymmetric responsive centre is correlated with eye migration during flatfish metamorphosis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2018
Flatfish metamorphosis is a unique post-embryonic developmental event in which thyroid hormones (THs) drive the development of symmetric pelagic larva into asymmetric benthic juveniles.

Metazoan parasite fauna of the bigeye flounder, Hippoglossina macrops, from Northern Chile. Influence of host age and sex

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2001
The metazoan parasite fauna of Hippoglossina macrops (n = 123) from northern Chile (30°S) is quantitatively described for the first time, and the role of host age and sex was evaluated. Twelve parasite species were recovered, including 5 ectoparasites (2

Changes in occurrence and abundance of northern / southern flatfishes over a 20-year period in a coastal nursery area (Bay of Vilaine) and on the eastern continental shelf of the Bay of Biscay

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2006
Several works have demonstrated trends in the distribution of fish species relative to global warming. This study investigated whether similar trends have occurred for selected flatfish species on the continental shelf of the Bay of Biscay. These species

Prediction of delayed mortality using vitality scores and reflexes, as well as catch, processing, and post‐release conditions: evidence from discarded flatfish in the Western Baltic trawl fishery

open access: yesICES Journal of Marine Science, 2018
&NA; The EU discard ban and its high‐survival exemption exposed our lack of scientific evidence on discard survival in the fisheries. Discard survival is known to be highly variable and influenced by numerous factors, including conditions during the ...
