Beaked redfish (Sebastes mentella) is one of the few commercially important fish species producing living offspring. Like many other deep-water fishes, it is slow growing, late maturing and long-lived, getting as old as ...

Genome editing using the CRISPR/Cas system offers the potential to enhance current breeding programs and introduce desirable genetic traits, including disease resistance, in salmon aquaculture. Several nucleases are available ...

Crustaceans live on large colonial invertebrates for a variety of reasons, but in all cases must overcome the defenses of the host animal. We surveyed the crustaceans living on deep-sea octocorals collected during expeditions ...

Previous studies on robustness have argued that there is a tradeoff between accuracy and adversarial accuracy. The tradeoff can be inevitable even when we neglect generalization. We argue that the tradeoff is inherent to ...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have frequently been suspected of governing crude oil toxicity because of similar morphological defects in fish. However, PAH concentrations are often not high enough to explain the ...

The ocean carbonate system is critical to monitor because it plays a major role in regulating Earth's climate and marine ecosystems. It is monitored using a variety of measurements, and it is commonly understood that all ...

Anguillid eels were once considered to be the classic example of catadromy. However, alternative life cycles have been reported, including skipping the freshwater phase and habitat shifting between fresh, brackish, and ...

The fish community of the Scotia Sea is diverse and plays key roles in Antarctic food webs and biogeochemical cycling. However, knowledge of the spatial and community structure of their early life stages is limited, ...

Pacific herring (Clupea pallasii), a cornerstone of marine food webs, generally spawn on marine macroalgae in shallow nearshore areas that are disproportionately at risk from oil spills. Herring embryos are also highly ...

The extensive use of plant ingredients in novel aquafeeds have introduced mycotoxins to the farming of seafood. The emerging enniatin B (ENNB) and beauvericin (BEA) mycotoxins have been found in the novel aquafeeds and ...
