Illegal, Unreported and Unregulated fishing has had a major role in the overexploitation of global fish populations. In response, international regulations have been imposed many fisheries 'eco-certified' by consumer organizations, but methods for independent control catch certificates eco-labels are urgently needed. Here we show that, using gene-associated single nucleotide polymorphisms, individual marine can be assigned back to population origin with unprecedented high levels precision....
To ensure food security and nutritional quality for a growing world population in the face of climate change, stagnant capture fisheries production, increasing aquaculture production competition natural resources, countries must be accountable what they consume rather than produce. investigate sustainability seafood consumption, we propose methodology to examine impact supply chains across national boundaries: consumption footprint. The footprint is expressed as biomass domestic imported...
Blue shark ( Prionace glauca ) is amongst the most abundant species in international trade, however this highly migratory has little effective management and need for spatio-temporal strategies increases, possibly involving vulnerable stage or sex classes. We combined 265,595 blue observations (capture satellite tag) with environmental data to present first global-scale analysis of species’ habitat preferences five size classes (small juveniles, large juvenile males females, adult females)....
Tuna Regional Fishery Management Organizations (tRFMOs) are increasingly interested in spatiotemporal management as a tool to reduce interaction rates with vulnerable species.We use blue shark (Prionace glauca) case study demonstrate the critical first steps implementation process, highlighting how predictions of global habitat for life stages can be transformed into publicly-accessible spatial bycatch mitigation tool.By providing examples possible goals and an associated threshold identify...
Abstract Motivation: The field of toxicogenomics (the application ‘-omics’ technologies to risk assessment compound toxicities) has expanded in the last decade, partly driven by new legislation, aimed at reducing animal testing chemical but mainly as a result paradigm change toxicology towards use and integration genome wide data. Many research groups worldwide have generated large amounts such However, there is no centralized repository for archiving making these data associated tools their...
The blue shark (Prionace glauca, Linnaeus 1758) is one of the most abundant epipelagic inhabiting all oceans except poles, including Mediterranean Sea, but its genetic structure has not been confirmed at basin and interoceanic distances. Past tagging programs in Atlantic Ocean failed to find evidence migration sharks between adjacent Atlantic, despite extreme vagility species. Although high rate by-catch basin, date no study on was carried out, which constitutes a significant knowledge gap,...
Abstract This study evaluates the relationship between both commercial and scientific spatial fisheries data a new satellite‐based estimate of potential fish production (Ocean Productivity available to Fish, OPFish) in European Seas. To construct OPFish, we used productivity frontal features derived from chlorophyll‐ horizontal gradients, which characterize 10%–20% global phytoplankton that effectively fuels higher trophic levels. OPFish is relatively consistent with distribution pelagic...

We present a graph-based object model that may be used as uniform framework for direct manipulation of multimedia information. After an introduction motivating the need abstraction and structuring mechanisms in hypermedia systems, we introduce data notion perspective, form acts user interface to system, providing control over visibility objects their properties. A perspective is defined include intension extension. The terms pattern, subgraph schema graph, extension set pattern-matching...
FishTrace is a genetic catalogue for species identification associated to reference collections of taxonomically identified vouchers from more than 200 commercial marine fish species. The main purpose the enable reliable research purposes as well in support traceability schemes under remit food and feed laws. A major asset that all data are linked biological vouchers, specimen have been genetically have, at same time, by taxonomists stored curated natural history museums. This opens...
Information and Communication Technologies have great potential, in the context of natural resources utilization, to improve efficiency by making homes, offices, industries transportation systems more 'intelligent': information use can be traded off with less energy use. The paper presents a system monitor interactively control water gas allowing consumers better informed about their consumption behaviour challenging them utilization along saving costs. In system, smart meters are used order...
Abstract Understanding population connectivity within a species as well potential interactions with its close relatives is crucial to define management units and derive efficient actions. However, although genetics can reveal mismatches between biological other relevant but hidden information such misidentification or hybridization, the uptake of genetic methods by fisheries process far from having been consolidated. Here, we have assessed power better understand white ( Lophius piscatorius...

Populations of marine top predators have been sharply declining during the past decades, and one-third chondrichthyans are currently threatened with extinction. Sustainable management measures conservation plans large pelagic sharks require knowledge on population genetic differentiation demographic connectivity. Here, we present case Mediterranean blue shark (
