Population structure of blackfin tuna (Thunnus atlanticus) in the western Atlantic Ocean inferred from microsatellite loci [PDF]
The blackfin tuna, Thunnus atlanticus, is a small tropical tuna exploited by recreational and commercial fisheries in various parts of its range. Information on stock structure is needed to develop management plans for this species but is currently ...

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]
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 ...

Weak range-wide population structure in the blackfin tuna (Thunnus atlanticus) revealed by analysis of genome-wide SNPs [PDF]
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.

Methodology and application of PCR-RFLP for species identification in tuna sashimi. [PDF]
Find out the restriction fragment length polymorphism in the Cyt b gene of most common kinds of tuna for sashimi preparation. Established a simply and accurate method for most common kinds of tuna identification. This method provides the technology needed to support the rapid identification of raw tuna species for quality inspections and scientific ...

Abstract Aquaculture (freshwater and marine) has largely supplemented fisheries, but in theory could help reduce fishing pressure on wild stocks. Although not the sole factors, some potential benefits depend on aquaculture pressures on fished species, including collection of wild ‘seed’ material—earlier to later life stages—for rearing in captivity and
