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.

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.

The effect of temperature on postprandial metabolism of yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2016
Specific dynamic action (SDA), the increase in metabolic expenditure associated with consumption of a meal, represents a substantial portion of fish energy budgets and is highly influenced by ambient temperature. The effect of temperature on SDA has not been studied in yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares, Bonnaterre 1788), an active pelagic predator that

Mercury Concentrations in Tuna (Thunnus albacares and Thunnus obesus) from the Brazilian Equatorial Atlantic Ocean

Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2016
Average total Hg concentrations measured in muscle of two species of tuna (Thunnus obesus and T. albacares) captured in the Brazilian Equatorial Atlantic Ocean varied from 95 to 1748 ng.g-1 wet weight in T. obesus and 48 to 500 ng.g-1 wet weight in T. albacares. Higher concentrations in T.

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 ...
