Thermoregulation in Yellowfin Tuna, Thunnus albacares

Physiological Zoology, 1979
To determine their capacity for thermoregulation, yellowfin tuna, Thunnus albacares, were subjected to a series of 12-h periods at $T_{a}'s$ of 20, 25, and 30 C. Muscle temperature, measured with an ultrasonic transmitter attached to the fish, and swim speed were simultaneously monitored.

Genomic resources for the Yellowfin tuna Thunnus albacares

Molecular Biology Reports
The Yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) is a large tuna exploited by major fisheries in tropical and subtropical waters of all oceans except the Mediterranean Sea. Genomic studies of population structure, adaptive variation or of the genetic basis of phenotypic traits are needed to inform fisheries management but are currently limited by the lack of a ...

Bioenergetics of captive yellowfin tuna ( Thunnus albacares )

Aquaculture, 2017
We utilized a unique opportunity to study the growth and bioenergetics of a highly migratory and commercially valuable marine fish under controlled environmental conditions. We maintained yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) in holding tanks throughout a twenty-year period, routinely collecting data on mass and length of individual fish over time.

Characterization of Yellowfin Tuna (Thunnus albacares, Scombroidei) Tryptophan Hydroxylase

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part B: Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 1997
Tryptophan hydroxylase (EC 1.14, 16.4) was purified from yellowfin tuna liver and properties of this enzyme were compared with those of tryptophan hydroxylase from some other species (mouse mastocytoma and rat brain-stem). The molecular weight of the yellowfin tuna enzyme was estimated to be about 280,000 Da.

Polymorphic microsatellite markers for the Yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares)

Conservation Genetics Resources, 2014
The yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares )i s a warm water tuna of conservation concern related to recent declines in abundance reported in various parts of its range. In this work, 24 new microsatellites markers were devel- oped for this species using Illumina paired-end sequencing and a direct 'Seq-to-SSR' approach.
