Atlantic mackerel population structure does not support genetically distinct spawning components.

Background: The Atlantic mackerel, (Linnaeus, 1758) is a commercially valuable migratory pelagic fish inhabiting the northern Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea. Given its highly migratory behaviour for feeding and spawning, several studies have been conducted to assess differentiation among spawning components to better define management units, as well as to investigate possible adaptations to comprehend and predict recent range expansion northwards.

Methods: Here, a high-quality genome of was sequenced and annotated, as an increasing number of population genetic studies have proven the relevance of reference genomes to investigate genomic markers/regions potentially linked to differences at finer scale.

Genetic Stock Identification Reveals Mismatches Between Management Areas and Population Genetic Structure in a Migratory Pelagic Fish.

Sustainable fisheries management is important for the continued harvest of the world's marine resources, especially as they are increasingly challenged by a range of climatic and anthropogenic factors. One of the pillars of sustainable fisheries management is the accurate identification of the biological units, i.e.

Leveraging the genetic diversity of trout in the rivers of the British Isles and northern France to understand the movements of sea trout ( L.) around the English Channel.

Populations of anadromous brown trout, also known as sea trout, have suffered recent marked declines in abundance due to multiple factors, including climate change and human activities. While much is known about their freshwater phase, less is known about the species' marine feeding migrations. This situation is hindering the effective management and conservation of anadromous trout in the marine environment.

Introgression affects juvenile life-history traits generations after stocking with non-native strains.

Introgression of non-native conspecifics changes the genetic composition of wild populations, potentially leading to loss of local adaptations and fitness declines. However, long-term data from wild populations are still relatively few. Here, we studied the effects of introgression in a Danish brown trout (, L.
