When subsistence fishing meets conservation issues: Survey of a small fishery in a neotropical river with high biodivers...
The inland fisheries sector is central for subsistence in many regions worldwide. The exploitation of fish resources is expected to increase along with the growing human population, with underlying conservation issues in regions with high biodiversity value. The small fishery of the Maroni River, French Guiana, is a hotspot of biodiversity and ende...
Establishing a governance threshold in small-scale fisheries to achieve sustainability
...
Published in Ambio
The lack of effective governance is a major concern in small-scale fisheries. The implementation of governance that encompasses the three pillars of sustainability (social, economic, and ecological) is still a worldwide challenge. We examined nine stalked barnacle fisheries ( Pollicipes pollicipes ) across Southwest Europe to better understand the ...
The role of energy reserves in common carp performance inferred from phenotypic and genetic parameters
...
In temperate zones, energy reserves of fish are closely related to survival during the first winter of their life. In this study, the genetic and phenotypic background of the accumulation, mobilization and utilization of energy reserves was investigated in Amur mirror carp. To achieve this, the role of traits related to energy reserves on fish perf...
Patógenos bacterianos y su resistencia a los antimicrobianos en los cultivos de tilapia en Guatemala
Este estudio muestra el trabajo realizado durante el año 2018-2019, donde se identificaron los principales patógenos bacterianos que afectan los cultivos de la tilapia en Guatemala, al mismo tiempo se evaluó la resistencia a los antibióticos de mayor uso en la industria acuícola de esta zona. Se recolectaron peces con peso de 50 a 1 000 g, en diver...
Optimization of Genomic Selection to Improve Disease Resistance in Two Marine Fishes, the European Sea Bass (Dicentrarch...
...
Published in Frontiers in Genetics
Disease outbreaks are a major threat to the aquaculture industry, and can be controlled by selective breeding. With the development of high-throughput genotyping technologies, genomic selection may become accessible even in minor species. Training population size and marker density are among the main drivers of the prediction accuracy, which both h...

An investigation of links between metabolic rate and feed efficiency in European sea bass Dicentrarchus labrax.
Published in Journal of animal science
Feed efficiency (FE) is the amount of body weight gain for a given feed intake. Improving FE through selective breeding is key for sustainable finfish aquaculture but its evaluation at individual level is technically challenging. We therefore investigated whether individual routine metabolic rate (RMR) was a predictor of individual FE in the Europe...
Sex dimorphism in European sea bass ( Dicentrarchus labrax L.): New insights into sex-related growth patterns during ver...
Published in PLoS ONE
The European sea bass ( Dicentrarchus labrax ) exhibits female-biased sexual size dimorphism (SSD) early in development. New tagging techniques provide the opportunity to monitor individual sex-related growth during the post-larval and juvenile stages. We produced an experimental population through artificial fertilization and followed a rearing-te...
