Population Structure of Atlantic Mackerel (Scomber scombrus)
Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus) occurs on both sides of the north Atlantic and has traditionally been grouped into 5 spawning components, some of which were thought to be isolated natal homing stocks. Previous studies have provided no evidence for cross Atlantic migration and no or weak support for isolated spawning components within either side of the North Atlantic. We question the de-fa...
متن کاملDifferential population structuring of two closely related fish species, the mackerel (Scomber scombrus) and the chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus), in the Mediterranean Sea.
Population genetic structures of the mackerel (Scomber scombrus) and chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus) were studied in the Mediterranean Sea. Fragments of 272 bp (S. scomber) and 387 bp (S. japonicus) of the 5'-end of the mitochondrial control region were sequenced from spawning individuals collected off the coasts of Greece, Italy, Spain, and Portugal. High levels of mitochondrial control regi...
متن کاملDiets and selective feeding by larvae of Atlantic mackerel Scomber scombrus on zooplankton *
This paper describes the diets of 201 larvae of Atlantic mackerel Scomber scombrus L. collected from Long Island Sound, New York (USA) during May-June 1982 and 1983. First-feeding larvae (3.5 mm in length) were phytophagous. The diets of larvae 4.5 mm were composed of the nauplii of Acartia hudsonica, Temora longicornis and Pseudocalanus sp. Larvae > 5 mm ate some copepodites of A. hudsonica an...
متن کاملMigration and Fisheries of North East Atlantic Mackerel (Scomber scombrus) in Autumn and Winter
It has been suggested that observed spatial variation in mackerel fisheries, extending over several hundreds of kilometers, is reflective of climate-driven changes in mackerel migration patterns. Previous studies have been unable to clearly demonstrate this link. In this paper we demonstrate correlation between temperature and mackerel migration/distribution as proxied by mackerel catch data fr...
متن کاملMolecular and morphologic approaches to discrimination of variability patterns in chub mackerel, Scomber japonicus.
The systematic status and the evolutionary biology of chub mackerel (Scomber japonicus) in the South West Atlantic Ocean is confusing with an unknown degree of genetic differentiation and reproductive isolation between units. Simultaneous genetic and morphologic analyses were made on 227 fish collected from two areas of the South West Atlantic Ocean and one from the Mediterranean Sea. The genet...
