Quality analysis of genomic DNA and authentication of fisheries products based on distinct methods of DNA extraction [PDF]
Molecular genetic techniques are an effective monitoring tool, but high-quality DNA samples are usually required. In this study, we compared three different protocols of DNA extraction: NaCl (saline); phenol-chloroform and commercial kit (Promega)—from ...

Complete mitochondrial genome and assembled DNA barcoding analysis of Lutjanus fulgens (Valenciennes, 1830) and its comparison with other Lutjanus species. [PDF]
The complete mitochondrial DNA of Lutjanus fulgens consists of 16,500 bp of nucleotide which entails 13 protein‐coding genes, two ribosomal RNAs, and 22 transfer RNAs. The phylogeny study indicates that L. fulgens is closest related to Lutjanus buccenella.

NEW OBSERVATION OF Rocinela signata SCHIOEDTE & MEINERT, 1879 (ISOPODA: AEGIDAE) AS ECTO- AND GILL PARASITE OF RED SNAPPER FISH Lutjanus purpureus (POEY, 1866), COLLECTED FROM THE GREAT AMAZON REEF SYSTEM (GARS) [PDF]
The isopod Rocinela signata Schioedte & Meinert, 1879 (Aegidae) is largely recorded in literature as ectoparasites of marine fishes; however, the full list of hosts is still far from complete. We report the occurrence of R. signata as ectoparasite from a

Re-evaluation of certain aspects of the EFSA Scientific Opinion of April 2010 on risk assessment of parasites in fishery products, based on new scientific data. Part 2. [PDF]
Abstract The objective of this opinion was to determine if any wild caught fish species, originating from specific fishing grounds and consumed in the EU/EFTA could be considered free of zoonotic parasites. In this Opinion the term ‘fishery products’ only refers to fresh finfish.

Caribbean red snapper fishing performance indicators in Brazilian amazon shelf: Is it the beginning of the end of a fishing system? [PDF]
Red snapper fishing (Lutjanus purpureus) is an important fishing activity for the Brazilian economy due to its export. The scarcity of up-to-date information on this system's ecology, economy, and social characteristics contributes to inefficient ...

Temporal dynamics of reproduction in Hemiramphus brasiliensis (Osteichthyes: Hemiramphidae). [PDF]
The reproductive aspects of Hemiramphus brasiliensis were analyzed with a view to verify the temporal dynamics of reproduction. This paper presents data on sex ratio, length at first sexual maturity, macroscopic and histological aspects of gonad development, gonadosomatic index (GSI), reproductive period, and fecundity of H. brasiliensis.

Chemometric identification and nutritional evaluation of three species of Lutjanidae (Perciformes) from the Amazonian Atlantic Coast based on fatty acid profiles [PDF]
The fatty acid (FA) profiles of fish species with a similar genetic or geographic origin are important quality parameters that attract bioecological interest because they are influenced by the nutritional habits of the species.
