Anthropogenic activities contribute to nearly half of current Hg emissions to the atmosphere.
In the marine habitat, oceanic predator fishes bioaccumulate Hg throughout their lives …

An essential prerequisite of a sustainable fisheries management is the matching of
biologically relevant processes and management action. In fisheries management and …

The distribution of circumtropical marine species is limited by continental boundaries, cold
temperate conditions, and oceanic expanses, but some of these barriers are permeable over …

Comparative phylogeography has revealed remarkable patterns of concordance in the
maternal phylogenies of many species. The phylogeography and historical demography of …

Regional fisheries management organizations (RFMO) are often criticized for ineffectual
management of high-seas fisheries resources. However, in the case of the two Atlantic …

Many marine fishes are cosmopolitan, occurring in continuous (eg, circumtropical) or
discontinuous (eg, antitropical) distributions. Little is known of the genetic basis of …

Although many coastal shark species have widespread distributions, the genetic
relatedness of worldwide populations has been examined for few species. The blacktip …

Background Yellowfin and skipjack tuna are globally distributed in the world's tropical and
sub-tropical oceans. Since little, if any, migration of these fishes occurs between the Atlantic …

Different classes of molecular markers occasionally yield discordant views of population
structure within a species. Here, we examine the distribution of molecular variance from 14 …

Une analyse des microsatellites chez le mako à nageoires courtes (Isurus oxyrinchus)
montre peu d'indications d'une structure de population. Quatre locus microsatellites ont été …
