Shark Declines in the Mediterranean Sea [PDF]
Summarizes a study of population and biomass trends of large sharks in the Mediterranean, and highlights the risk of some species becoming extinct as a result of unintended capture in fishing gear, targeted shark fishing, and human population ...

ABSTRACT Kudoa thyrsites is a myxosporean endoparasite that infects fish, frequently resulting in myoliquefaction, impacting the texture and eating quality of fish muscle. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of K. thyrsites infection on the proximate composition and texture parameters of raw fillets from two South African economically ...

Beyond fishing: loggerhead turtle impalement by swordfish
Sea turtles are susceptible to a wide range of impacts. In Brazil, the loggerhead turtle Caretta caretta (Linnaeus, 1758) is the main sea turtle species caught incidentally by longline fishing fleets that target the blue shark Prionace glauca (Linnaeus,

Associations of Commercial Fisheries and Cold‐Water Corals and Sponges
Three metrics for determining whether the marine life that are landed by commercial fisheries are associated with cold‐water corals and sponges: (a) Adjacent; (b) General Proximity; and (c) Habitat. The relationship between these structure forming invertebrates (SFI) and fisheries is robust across analytical approaches.

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.

Multi-genetic marker approach and spatio-temporal analysis suggest there is a single panmictic population of swordfish Xiphias gladius in the Indian Ocean. [PDF]
Genetic population structure of swordfish Xiphias gladius was examined based on 2231 individual samples, collected mainly between 2009 and 2010, among three major sampling areas within the Indian Ocean (IO; twelve distinct sites), Atlantic (two sites ...

Surface mucous as a source of genomic DNA from Atlantic billfishes (Istiophoridae) and swordfish (Xiphiidae) [PDF]
Procedures for sampling genomic DNA from live billfishes involve manual restraint and tissue excision that can be difficult to carry out and may produce stresses that affect fish survival.

Evaluando los niveles tróficos de dos tiburones oceánicos del Océano Pacífico suroriental [PDF]
Indexación: Web of ScienceStable isotope analyses for shortfin mako (Isurus oxyrinchus) and blue sharks (Prionace glauca) were conducted to assess their trophic position in two periods of time (before 1980 and after 2000) in the Southeastern Pacific ...

Downscaling Regional Fishery Management Organization reported longline effort data using fine‐scale Global Fishing Watch effort estimates facilitates estimates of non‐US effort within a transboundary management area. These effort estimates are then used to predict interaction with the Hawai‘i pelagic false killer whale in non‐US fleets, reducing ...
