Maintenance of genetic diversity in marine fishes targeted by commercial fishing is a grand
challenge for the future. Most of these species are abundant and therefore important for …

Simple Summary In recent decades, societies, states and local authorities have become
increasingly aware that for effective long-term management and protection of aquatic …

We developed and validated a mixed-stock analysis (MSA) method with 59 single-
nucleotide polymorphisms selected from genome-wide data to assign individuals to …

Long time series of reliable individual growth estimates are crucial for understanding the
status of a fish stock and deciding upon appropriate management. Tagging data provide …

Evolutionary and ecological processes affecting the interactions between hosts and
parasites in the aquatic environment are at display in the Baltic Sea, a young and …

Accurate age data are essential for reliable fish stock assessment. Yet many stocks suffer
from inconsistencies in age interpretation. A new approach to obtain age makes use of the …

Abstract In the Baltic Sea, salinity and its large variability, both horizontal and vertical, are
key physical factors in determining the overall stratification conditions. In addition to that …

Abstract The western Baltic Sea cod (WBC) stock is at historically low levels, mainly
attributed to high fishing pressure and low recruitment. Stable stock assessment metrics …

Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) is a transatlantic marine fish displaying large population
sizes and a high potential for dispersal and gene-flow. These features are expected to result …

Many marine fish species are widely distributed over large areas. Failing to acknowledge
that such species may be composed of distinct populations may result in overestimation of …
