The concept of a sustainable yield (SY, Gulland, 1983; Lannan et aL, 1989) has dominated
fisheries management for almost 50 years. The central idea is that each stock has a …

Tropical reef fishes, along with many benthic invertebrates, have a life cycle that includes a
sedentary, bottom‐dwelling reproductive phase and a planktonic stage that occurs early in …

The application of genetic techniques to invertebrate fisheries is in many ways essentially
similar to that in vertebrate (ie finfish) fisheries, for which there is already an extensive body …

Different categories of molecular markers have been used so far to study the population
structure of sponges. However, these markers often did not have the resolution power to …

Genetic studies of population or 'stock'structure in exploited marine fishes typically are
designed to determine whether geographic boundaries useful for conservation and …

The demosponge Oscarella lobularis (Schmidt, 1862) has been reported from various
localities throughout the world and is abundant in many areas. It is considered to be …

Mytilus edulis L. and M. galloprovincialis Lmk. are 2 forms of mussels that live on the
European coasts, and where they coexist, hybridize in varying proportions. While the Atlantic …

Many sponge species are considered to be cosmopolitan. However, the systematics of
marine sponges are very difficult because of the paucity of taxonomically useful characters …

Allozymic variation of 13 gene loci was investigated in 2 samples of Corallium rubrum (L.)
collected in the Tyrrhenian Sea (Tuscany, Italy), at the coastal Calafuria cliff (south of …

Horizontal starch gel electrophoresis was employed to investigate levels of genetic
differentiation between 13 samples of the neritic squid species Loligo forbesi Steenstrup …
