Abstract Background Patagonian toothfish ( Dissostichus eleginoides ) is an economically and ecologically important fish species in the family Nototheniidae. Juveniles occupy progressively deeper waters as they mature grow, adults have been caught deep 2500 m, living on or just above southern shelves slopes around sub-Antarctic islands of Southern Ocean. As apex predators, are a key part food web, feeding variety prey, including krill, squid, other fish. Despite its importance, genomic...
The South Sandwich Islands (SSI) are a volcanic archipelago in the Atlantic sector of Southern Ocean; they biologically rich area, home to range benthic habitats such as hydrothermal vents and seamounts. A commercial longline fishery for two congeneric species deep-sea fish, Patagonian (Dissostichus eleginoides) Antarctic (D. mawsoni) toothfish has been operation annually at SSI since 2005 throughout its history employed scientific observers collect detailed information on caught during...
The exploitation of marine resources the South Sandwich Islands (SSI) began with hunting fur seals for their pelts in early decades 19th Century. Pelagic whaling region started a century later catches recorded until mid-1970s. Blue and fin whales dominated accounting 80% total. Trawl fisheries demersal finfish krill (Euphausia superba) were established around many sub-Antarctic islands late 1960s through 1970s, but they did not become at despite research expeditions from several nations...
Marine mammal sightings were recorded during research cruises to three remote, mid-ocean British Overseas Territories in the South Atlantic and Southern Ocean. In March April 2018 2019, Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZs) of tropical St Helena temperate Tristan da Cunha surveyed. The sub-polar waters Georgia Sandwich Islands (SGSSI) surveyed February 2019. At 2018, five species 11 sightings, four species, with one additional unidentified seven sightings. Most these dolphin which are known be...
Abstract Patagonian toothfish ( Dissostichus eleginoides ) is an economically and ecologically important fish species in the family Nototheniidae, found at depths between 70 2,500 meters on southern shelves slopes around sub-Antarctic islands of Southern Ocean. Genomic sequence data for this limited. Here, we report a high-quality assembly annotation D. genome, generated using combination Illumina, PacBio Omni-C sequencing technologies. To aid genome annotation, transcriptome derived from...
