Abstract Skipjack (Katsuwonus pelamis), yellowfin (Thunnus albacares) and bigeye
(Thunnus obesus) tuna are the target species of tropical tuna fisheries in the Indian Ocean …

Fish parasitological research associated with fisheries and aquaculture has expanded
remarkably over the past century. The application of parasites as biological tags has been …

In principle, the spatial extent of fishery stock assessment should reflect the biological
population, and major fishing patterns or population heterogeneity within the area should be …

In marine species experiencing intense fishing pressures, knowledge of genetic structure
and local adaptation represent a critical information to assist sustainable management. In …

Otolith shape analysis is an efficient fish stock identification tool. However, most applications
used left and right otoliths or only one of them arbitrarily chosen without testing for biases …

Understanding how ocean currents affect larval transport is crucial for understanding
population connectivity in sessile marine invertebrates whose primary dispersal opportunity …

A better understanding of the stock structure of yellowfin tuna (Thunnus albacares) in the
Indian Ocean is needed to ensure the sustainable management of the fishery. In this study …

Processes regulating population connectivity are complex, ranging from extrinsic
environmental factors to intrinsic individual based features, and are a major force shaping …

Information about population connectivity, including the rates and routes of larval transport
as well as source-sink dynamics, is important for the sustainable management of harvested …

Sagittal otolith shape analysis is one of the most widespread techniques worldwide to
discriminate fish stock units, as this proxy integrates both environmental and genetic factors …
