ABSTRACT In this study, we explored the population genetic structure and its relation to environmental adaptations of the dolphinfish (Coryphaena hippurus) in the western Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. Although previously two populations within the Mediterranean Sea were identified, recent evidence suggests more complex structuring.

ABSTRACT Facilitative interspecific interactions (FIIs) confer benefits to at least one participant without detriment to others. Although often less emphasised than antagonistic interactions in ecological studies, this review highlights the significant ecological role of FIIs across biological scales – from individual behaviours to population ...

Using a standardized eDNA metabarcoding workflow across 12 countries, ANEMONE Global reveals large‐scale patterns in coastal fish biodiversity shaped by habitat complexity, ocean basin, and diel variation. The study demonstrates the feasibility of globally coordinated, high‐resolution marine biodiversity monitoring using eDNA.

Spatial variability in branchial basket meristics and morphology of southern African sardine Sardinops sagax [PDF]
We examined spatial variability in meristic and morphological characteristics of the branchial basket of sardine Sardinops sagax collected from four geographical regions around the southern African coast, namely Namibia and the South African west, south ...

Proposed equations for the model of the revised South African sardine stock structure hypothesis [PDF]
This document proposes equations to model the revised South African sardine stock structure hypothesis. The model allows for either two components and two areas (with cold temperate sardine spawning off the west coast and warm temperate sardine spawning ...

A Two Discrete Stock Hypothesis for South African Sardine Resource [PDF]
The two discrete stock hypothesis for South African sardine has been extended. An improved fit to the data has been obtained. These results show that the hypothesis of two discrete stocks of sardine in South African waters can fit the observed data well.

This study compared the ability of active and passive eDNA filtration methods to capture environmental DNA in a marine environment with highly variable eDNA signals. Active sampling detected a greater proportion of fish biodiversity, whereas passive sampling detected a larger proportion of metazoa, with a trend of significant accumulation of numbers of

Alternative hypotheses of two mixing stocks of South African sardine: Initial testing
A new assessment of sardine based on data from 1984 to 2014 is planned to commence in a few months’ time. This assessment will eventually form the operating model which will be used to project the sardine population forward in time under alternative future catch scenarios – i.e.

Initial testing of revised stock structure hypotheses for South African sardine
A set of revised stock structure hypotheses for South African sardine are now available. This document explores the ability of a range of alternative model assumptions, which correspond to this revised hypothesis, to fit the data and provides some initial feedback in terms of further testing required, and the ability to run future testing for a smaller

Base case assessment of the South African sardine resource [PDF]
The assessment of the South African sardine resource is in the process of being updated. This document outlines the base case assessment which has been updated from the last assessment (Cunningham and Butterworth 2004) to take account of new ...
