There is a knowledge gap concerning the genetic diversity distribution across marine invertebrates, and whether the latitudinal genetic diversity gradient results from congruent intraspecific trends. Our results indicate higher genetic diversity in lower latitudes is correlated to productivity and oxygen levels, but does not represent the accumulation ...

The commercial aspects of spiny lobster farming [PDF]
The Florida spiny lobster, Panulirus argus, is an important item in Florida fisheries, rating high among fishery products. The fishery is centered in south Florida and the Florida Keys but the commercial range may extend into other areas as more ...

ABSTRACT Cannibalism in high‐value crustacean species, such as mud crab, clawed lobster, and spiny lobster, is a major impediment to commercial aquaculture due to its significant impact on survival and, hence, production. Knowledge of the nutrition acquired from consuming conspecifics may inform whether nutrient limitation is a primary reason for ...

First record of the Sculptured Mitten Lobster Parribacus antarcticus (Crustacea, Decapoda, Scyllaridae) from the Cabo Verde Islands (eastern Atlantic) [PDF]
The lobster genus Parribacuscontains six living and one fossil species (Holthuis 1991; Chan 2010; Nyborg & Garassino 2017). In the Atlantic Ocean, only one living species is known, Parribacus antarcticus(Lund, 1793); it has been recorded in the western ...

ABSTRACT Complete mitochondrial genomes have become markers of choice to explore phylogenetic relationships at multiple taxonomic levels and they are often assembled using whole genome short‐read sequencing. Herein, using three species of sea chubs as an example, we explored the accuracy of mitochondrial chromosomes assembled using Oxford Nanopore ...

The moulting arthropod: a complete genetic toolkit review
ABSTRACT Exoskeletons are a defining character of all arthropods that provide physical support for their segmented bodies and appendages as well as protection from the environment and predation. This ubiquitous yet evolutionarily variable feature has been instrumental in facilitating the adoption of a variety of lifestyles and the exploitation of ...

Larval connectivity and the international management of fisheries. [PDF]
Predicting the oceanic dispersal of planktonic larvae that connect scattered marine animal populations is difficult, yet crucial for management of species whose movements transcend international boundaries.

The die‐off of the long‐spined sea urchin Diadema antillarum in the 1980s highlighted its crucial role as a primary grazer in tropical western Atlantic coral reefs. However, natural recovery has been slow, exacerbated by a new die‐off in 2022. Interest in actively restoring D.

Abstract Worldwide, lobsters are considered key predators that control urchin populations. It has been widely reported that lobster size plays a significant role in the size of urchins they feed on, as does the size of the urchin. Generally, it is thought that small palinurid “spiny” lobsters measuring less than 120 mm carapace length (CL) are ...
