A Validated Methodology for Genetic Identification of Tuna Species (Genus Thunnus)
BACKGROUND Tuna species of the genus Thunnus, such as the bluefin tunas, are some of the most important and yet most endangered trade fish in the world. Identification of these species in traded forms, however, may be difficult depending on the presentation of the products, which may hamper conservation efforts on trade control. In this paper, we validated a genetic methodology that can fully d...
متن کاملA validated description of age and growth of western Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus)
Current stock assessments of western Atlantic bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) use age-structured population analyses, but the age assignment in the population model is made using an age–length relationship derived from mark and recapture studies largely completed during the 1970s. In our study, the deposition of bomb radiocarbon was used as a dated mark to validate age inferences of bluefin tuna...
متن کاملResults of health surveys of two species of farmed tuna: southern bluefin tuna (Thunnus maccoyii) in Australia and northern bluefin tuna (Thunnus thynnus) in the Mediterranean
Health of two farmed species of tuna was evaluated in farm surveys in Australia, Croatia and Spain. The results were discussed at tuna health workshop during EAFP 12th International Conference. While a wide range of parasites was found, few problems occurred during the surveys. The information obtained will be useful for future monitoring and research on health of farmed tuna. Introduction Fish...
متن کاملA draft genome assembly of southern bluefin tuna Thunnus maccoyii
Tuna are large pelagic fish whose populations are close to panmixia. In addition, they are threatened species, so it is important for the maintenance and monitoring of genetic diversity that genetic information at a genome level be obtained. Here we report the draft assembly of the southern bluefin tuna genome and the collection of genome-wide sequence data for five other tuna species. We sampl...
متن کاملA Novel Methodology for Structural Matrix Identification using Wavelet Transform Optimized by Genetic Algorithm
With the development of the technology and increase of human dependency on structures, healthy structures play an important role in people lives and communications. Hence, structural health monitoring has been attracted strongly in recent decades. Improvement of measuring instruments made signal processing as a powerful tool in structural heath monitoring. Wavelet transform invention causes a g...
