Sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) spawning and larval environment in a Florida Current frontal eddy

Progress in Oceanography, 2009
Abstract Fronts and eddies are widely hypothesized to be critical spawning habitat for large pelagic fishes, due to increased larval and/or adult feeding opportunities at these features. We examined sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) spawning around a cyclonic, submesoscale (∼13 × 7 km) Florida Current frontal eddy.

Diet composition of sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus) from the southern Gulf of California, Mexico

Fisheries Research, 2002
Diet composition of the sailfish Istiophorus platypterus from the southern Gulf of California was determined using stomach contents of 576 fish. They were sampled from 1989 to 1991 from the sport fishing fleet at six tourist ports of the Mexican Pacific (La Paz, Cabo San Lucas, Mazatlan, Puerto Vallarta, Barra de Navidad, and Manzanillo). A total of 78

Seasonal reproduction of sailfishIstiophorus platypterusfrom the southeast Mexican Pacific

Marine Biology Research, 2013
Abstract Quantitative histology was used to analyse the seasonal reproductive characteristics of the Istiophorus platypterus sailfish obtained from bycatch and recreational catches in the southeast Mexican Pacific. The analysis revealed five stages of ovarian development, eight kinds of oocytes, and one postovulation structure.

Age and growth of sailfish Istiophorus platypterus (Shaw in Shaw and Nodder, 1792) from Mazatlan, Sinaloa, Mexico

Environmental Biology of Fishes, 2011
Age and growth of the sailfish Istiophorus platypterus were determined for the area off Mazatlan coast, Sinaloa, in the Gulf of California, between September 2002 and August 2003. The lower jaw-fork length and total weight of 572 specimens were measured, and the fourth dorsal spine was collected to determine age.

Genetic diversity and population structure of Indo-Pacific sailfish Istiophorus platypterus in the eastern Pacific

Fisheries Science, 2015
Population genetics provides information for the management and conservation of species, because it supports the delimitation of population units. A mitochondrial DNA marker was used to determine the genetic structure of the sailfish Istiophorus platypterus at four locations in Mexico (Mazatlan, Colima, Acapulco, Oaxaca) and one location in Ecuador. We

Isolation and characterization of acid and pepsin-solubilized collagen from the skin of sailfish (Istiophorus platypterus)

Food Research International, 2013
Abstract Acid-solubilized collagen (ASC) and pepsin-solubilized collagen (PSC) were extracted from the skin of sail fish (Istiophorus platypterus) with yields of 5.76% and 2.11% respectively, on the basis of wet weight. According to the electrophoretic pattern, ASC and PSC consisted of two different α chains (α1 and α2) and were characterized as Type

Seasonal variation of proximate composition of Istiophorus platypterus from Visakhapatnam fishing harbor, East Coast of India.

open access: yesInternational Journal of Bioassays, 2017
Seasonal variation of proximate composition (moisture, protein, fat and ash) of Istiophorus platypterus was analysed for one year (January 2016 to December 2016) from Visakhapatnam fishing harbor, east coast of India. The results indicated that the proximate composition of the fish depends on season.

Trophic size‐structure of sailfish Istiophorus platypterus in eastern Taiwan estimated by stable isotope analysis

Journal of Fish Biology, 2014
To examine trophic dynamics over different size classes, an isotopic study of sailfish Istiophorus platypterus life‐history stages was carried out. Samples were collected from eastern Taiwan and the South China Sea during April 2009 and February 2012. A total of 263 samples (111–245 cm, lower jaw fork length, LLJFL) were examined for changes in trophic

Intraspecific phylogeographic isolation of Arabian Gulf sailfish Istiophorus platypterus inferred from mitochondrial DNA

Marine Biology, 2004
The genetic structure of seven sailfish Istiophorus platypterus populations sampled from three locations inside and four locations outside the Arabian Gulf was determined by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis of mitochondrial DNA of 147 individuals using eight restriction endonucleases.
