Here we report Illumina-based whole genome sequencing of three rockfish species of Sebastes in northwest Pacific. The whole genomic DNA was used to prepare 350-bp pair-end libraries and the high-throughput sequencing yielded 128.5, 137.5, and 124.8 million mapped reads corresponding to 38.54, 41.26, and 37.43 Gb sequence data for S. schlegelii, S. koreanus, and S. nudus, respectively. The k-mer analyses revealed genome sizes were 846.4, 832.5, and 813.1 Mb and the sequencing coverages were 45×, 49×, and 46× for three rockfish, respectively. Comparative genomic analyses identified 46,624 genome-wide single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Phylogenetic analysis revealed closer relationships of the three species, compared to other six rockfish species. Demographic analysis identified contrasting changes between S. schlegelii and other two species, suggesting drastically different response to climate changes. The reported genome data in this study are valuable for further studies on comparative genomics and evolutionary biology of rockfish species.

Microplastics (MPs) and other anthropogenic particles (APs) are pervasive environmental contaminants found throughout marine and aquatic environments. We quantified APs in the edible tissue of black rockfish, lingcod, Chinook salmon, Pacific herring, Pacific lamprey, and pink shrimp, comparing AP burdens across trophic levels and between vessel-retrieved and retail-purchased individuals. Edible tissue was digested and analyzed under a microscope, and a subset of suspected APs was identified using spectroscopy (μFTIR).

Lysozymes are crucial enzymes involved in the innate immune response against bacterial pathogens. In this study, we identified and characterized a goose-type lysozyme gene (SsLyG) from the black rockfish Sebastes schlegelii, an economically important aquaculture species. The deduced amino acid sequence of SsLyG contains 495 residues, which inculded a signal peptide, an immunoglobulin domain, and a goose egg-white lysozyme (GEWL) domain.

Valorization of azorean demersal fish species must focus quality. This study aims to assess the nutritional value, sodium content and fat quality index of seven commercially relevant demersal fish species from the Azores Region: blackspot seabream (), blackbelly rosefish (), splendid alfonsino (), alfonsino (), forkbeard (), offshore rockfish () and common mora (). Moisture, ash, crude protein, total sugars, total fat, fatty acid profile, sodium and salt content were assessed.

The hull in-water cleaning (IWC) process creates chemical contaminants, including antifouling paint particle mixtures that are directly discharged into the coastal environment. Recent attention has also been paid to the international regulation of ship hull cleaning discharges in environmental media. However, few studies have investigated the adverse effects or toxic pathways on resident marine species.
