Age and growth of three coastal-pelagic tunas (Actinopterygii: Perciformes: Scombridae) in the Florida Straits, USA: blackfin tuna, Thunnus atlanticus, little tunny, Euthynnus alletteratus, and skipjack tuna, Katsuwonus pelamis [PDF]
Acta Ichthyologica Et Piscatoria, 2014 Background. Understanding the life history of a species is essential for fully understanding its role within an ecosystem.  However, many of the fish species of high ecological value have not been studied due to their less prominent roles in ...

Blackfin tuna (Thunnus atlanticus) fishing around FADs in Martinique (French West Indies) [PDF]
Aquatic Living Resources, 2000 Abstract This paper examines the fishing of blackfin tuna (Thunnus atlanticus) around Fish Aggregating Devices (FADs) in Martinique (French West Indies). It is based on the compared analysis of catches from monthly experimental fishing surveys and sampling of commercial landings.

Development and characterization of microsatellite markers for blackfin tuna (Thunnus atlanticus) with the use of Illumina paired-end sequencing [PDF]
Fishery Bulletin, 2014 Twenty homologous microsatellite markers, or simple sequence repeats (SSRs), were developed for blackfin tuna (Thunnus atlanticus) through the use of a direct Seq-to-SSR approach. The number of alleles per locus ranged between 5 and 26, and the expected heterozygosity ranged between 0.640 and 0.969. Three loci displayed significant departure from Hardy-

Weak range-wide population structure in the blackfin tuna (Thunnus atlanticus) revealed by analysis of genome-wide SNPs [PDF]
ICES Journal of Marine Science, 2023 AbstractBlackfin tuna (Thunnus atlanticus) is a small tuna distributed in the western Atlantic Ocean where it is exploited by growing recreational and commercial regional fisheries. In this work, genome-wide genetic variation was analysed to investigate the occurrence of stock subdivision.
