A molecular genetic investigation of the population structure of Atlantic menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus) [PDF]
Atlantic menhaden (Brevoortia tyrannus), through landings,support one of the largest commercial fisheries in the United States. Recent consolidation of the once coast-widereduction fishery to waters within and around Chesapeake Bay has raised concerns ...

On Assessment of the Atlantic Menhaden Population
The Atlantic menhaden population is assessed using Statistical Catch-at-Age/Length (SCAA/L) methodology. Two dominant issues have important impacts on the assessment results. The first is selectivity doming, which is clearly preferred by the data, and leads to higher estimates of spawning biomass in absolute terms.

ABSTRACT This study evaluated the long‐term effects of a dietary humic substance and butyrate blend (HSB) alone or with yeast cell wall (Beta‐MOS) in channel catfish. Around 1440 fish (31.31 ± 0.24 g) were distributed among 12 outdoor tanks in a pond‐supplied flow‐through design. Four dietary treatments were evaluated in triplicate: Diets containing no

Size of chloroplasts in Arabidopsis mesophyll cells affects jasmonate biosynthesis
The relationship between chloroplast structure and hormone biosynthesis capacity is poorly understood. This study shows that mutants harbouring giant chloroplasts produce more jasmonic acid upon mechanical stress than wild‐type plants, suggesting that organellar architecture is a previously unrecognized factor associated with plant hormone biosynthesis

Quantifying the Trophic Importance of Gulf Menhaden within the Northern Gulf of Mexico Ecosystem [PDF]
The Gulf Menhaden Brevoortia patronus is frequently cited as playing a predominant role in the trophic structure and function of the northern Gulf of Mexico (GOM) marine ecosystem, yet much work remains in quantifying its ecological importance.

Advancing Ecological Understanding and Sustainable Management of Small Pelagic Fish
ABSTRACT Small pelagic fish (SPF) are critical to the trophodynamic structure and function of marine systems and support some of the most valuable and socially important fisheries worldwide. Their “boom and bust” population dynamics, shifts in distribution, and importance as forage resources for other fish stocks place unique challenges to assessing ...

Lipid composition of body fat can be a key indicator of nutritional status and a number of human disorders. In vivo 13C NMR provides for repeated, noninvasive analysis of fatty acyl chain composition on individuals, which circumvents classical problems ...

ABSTRACT The consequences of mis‐managing vulnerable stocks (i.e., those with low productivity and high susceptibility to depletion) are high and potentially permanent. To support sustainable fisheries management, stock assessments can be improved by increasing the quantity and quality of fishery‐independent survey (i.e., survey) data.
