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 کاملEffects of temperature on sustained swimming performance and swimming kinematics of the chub mackerel Scomber japonicus.
The effects of a 6 degrees C difference in water temperature on maximum sustained swimming speed, swimming energetics and swimming kinematics were measured in the chub mackerel Scomber japonicus (Teleostei: Scombridae), a primarily coastal, pelagic predator that inhabits subtropical and temperate transition waters of the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans. New data for chub mackerel acclimated...
متن کاملLocomotion in scombrid fishes: morphology and kinematics of the finlets of the chub mackerel Scomber japonicus.
Finlets are small non-retractable fins located on the dorsal and ventral margins of the body between the second dorsal and anal fins and the tail of scombrid fishes. The morphology of the finlets, and finlet kinematics during swimming in a flow tank at speeds of 0.8-3. 0 fork lengths s(-1), were examined in the chub mackerel Scomber japonicus. Functionally, S. japonicus has five dorsal and anal...
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...
