A proteome‐scale analysis of vertebrate protein amino acid occurrence: Thermoadaptation shows a correlation with protein solvation but less so with dynamics

Proteins: Structure, Function, and Bioinformatics, Volume 91, Issue 1, Page 3-15, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Despite differences in behaviors and living conditions, vertebrate organisms share the great majority of proteins, often with subtle differences in amino acid sequence. Here, we present a simple way to analyze the difference in amino acid occurrence by comparing highly homologous proteins on a subproteome level between several vertebrate model

Time-Dynamic Food Web Modeling to Explore Environmental Drivers of Ecosystem Change on the Kerguelen Plateau

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2020
Understanding the impacts of climate and fishing on marine systems is important for ecosystem-based management in the Southern Ocean, but can be difficult to evaluate due to patchy data in space and time.

Guiding marine protected area network design with comparative phylogeography and population genomics: An exemplary case from the Southern Ocean

Diversity and Distributions, Volume 28, Issue 9, Page 1891-1907, September 2022., 2022
Abstract Aim Networks of connected marine protected areas (MPAn) are recognized as the key area‐based management tool to preserve biodiversity, moderate exploitation of marine resources and increase ecological resilience to climate change. Although population genetic studies could greatly benefit connectivity assessments between MPAs, genetic data are ...

Incentivising change to beneficial ownership and open registers—Holding flag states responsible for their fleets and costs of illegal fishing

Fish and Fisheries, Volume 23, Issue 5, Page 1240-1248, September 2022., 2022
Abstract While efforts to reduce illegal fishing have been underway for some time, market data suggest the volume of illegal fish in the markets is not decreasing significantly. One issue that may be driving this is the difficulty in imposing meaningful sanctions. We discuss an alternative approach aimed at reducing illegal fishing.

Economically Optimal Management Strategies for the South Georgia Patagonian Toothfish Fishery [PDF]

Marine Resource Economics, 2010
Abstract The fishery for Patagonian toothfish around the island of South Georgia in the Southern Ocean is a profitable operation targeting a high-value, slow-growing species. We substituted the complex Bayesian age-structured model currently used for assessments with a Schaefer production model, which performs equally well as an operating model for ...

Fisheries bycatch mitigation measures as an efficient tool for the conservation of seabird populations

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 59, Issue 7, Page 1674-1685, July 2022., 2022
We provide a holistic approach to assess the effects of management measures by analysing datasets from sampling methods commonly employed in seabird studies. Our conclusions should encourage the eradication of invasive predatory species in seabird breeding areas and the strengthening of bycatch mitigation measures for the vulnerable seabird species ...

De novo Assembly and Characterization of Patagonian Toothfish Transcriptome and Develop of EST-SSR Markers for Population Genetics

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Patagonian toothfish (Dissostichus eleginoides) is a hefty notothenioid fish and a key species within the marine ecosystem with a high migratory capacity across sub-Antarctic and south American Pacific oceans. Transcriptome characterization and molecular

The foraging ecology of greyheaded mollymawks at Marion Island: in relation to known longline fishing activity [PDF]

, 2000
Incidental mortality due to longline fishing has been implicated as the main cause for the global population decline in grey-headed mollymawks (Thalassarche chrysostoma).

Developing Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms for Identification of Cod Products by RAD-Seq

Animals, 2020
The increase in the rate of seafood fraud, particularly in the expensive fishes, forces us to verify the identity of marine products. Meanwhile, the definition of cod lacks consistency at the international level, as few standards and effective ...

Feeding ecology, isotopic niche, and ingestion of fishery-related items of the wandering albatross Diomedea exulans at Kerguelen and Crozet Islands [PDF]

, 2017
Feeding ecology and isotopic niche of the wandering albatross Diomedea exulans were investigated in the poorly studied population on the Kerguelen Islands and compared to that on the Crozet Islands. Fish (48% by mass) and cephalopods (46%) were similarly
