Reproductive biology of carpenter seabream (Argyrozona argyrozona) (Pisces: Sparidae) in a marine protected area [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The carpenter seabream (Argyrozona argyrozona) is an endemic South African sparid that comprises an important part of the handline fishery. A three-year study (1998−2000) into its reproductive biology within the Tsitsikamma National Park revealed that ...

An ecological framework for the development of a national MPA network [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Isolated marine protected areas (MPAs) may not be enough to sustain viable populations of marine species, particularly the many small coastal MPAs which resulted due to social, economic and political constraints.

Refining a molecular tool kit to capture tropicalization in Mediterranean marine protected areas

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, EarlyView.
We assess complementarity and trade‐offs between visual census and eDNA metabarcoding for monitoring fish community changes in MPAs. Abstract Tropicalization, the process by which tropical species expand their ranges poleward due to global ocean warming, is a prominent threat to Mediterranean marine ecosystems, challenging their effective management ...

New data on the occurrence and status of some sparid species (Actinopterygii: Sparidae) in the coastal Bulgarian Black Sea waters

open access: yesHistoria Naturalis Bulgarica
Fish species diversity in the Black Sea is affected by a phenomenon called mediterranisation. This is related to the advance of thermophilic fish from the Mediterranean Sea into the Black Sea.

De-novo genome assembly and annotation of sobaity seabream Sparidentex hasta

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2022
Sparidentexhasta (Valenciennes, 1830) of the Sparidae family, is an economically important fish species. However, the genomic studies on S. hasta are limited due to the absence of its complete genome.

The effect of a 24-hour photoperiod on the survival, growth and swim bladder inflation of pre-flexion yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) larvae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
The effects of two different continuous photoperiod regimes on survival, growth and swim bladder inflation of pre-flexion yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) larvae were investigated. Each photoperiod regime was tested twice with a different larval cohort

First Draft Genome for Red Sea Bream of Family Sparidae [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2018
Reference genomes for all organisms on earth are now attainable owing to advances in genome sequencing technologies (Goodwin et al., 2016). Generally, species that contribute considerably to the economy or human welfare are sequenced and are considered more important than others.

Enhancing fish community monitoring at a cabled observatory by combining environmental DNA and imaging analysis

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cabled multiparametric observatories are sustaining ecological monitoring by collecting long‐term real‐time biological and environmental data. Here, we investigated fish communities by sampling environmental DNA (eDNA) over 4 days near the multiparametric cabled video‐observatory OBSEA (Northwestern Mediterranean Sea).

Distribution and sighting frequency of reef fishes in the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
This study analyzed species richness, distribution, and sighting frequency of selected reef fishes to describe species assemblage composition, abundance, and spatial distribution patterns among sites and regions (Upper Keys, Middle Keys, Lower Keys, and ...
