Black seabream, spondyliosoma cantharus : stock structure in the eastern atlantic and characterisation of the biology and fishery in the portuguese coast
Tese de doutoramento, Ciências do Mar, Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Ciências, 2018 In this thesis the stock structure of the black seabream, Spondyliosoma cantharus, along the Eastern Atlantic is explored using 4 different methodologies, body morphometry, otolith shape and stable isotopes ra...

A clear structuration is present between regions: North east Atlantic, Mediterranean Sea, Cape Verde and Angola, not being detected any population structuring within each region; however high levels of private haplotypes for all populations were observed, which can indicate that not enough dispersal/gene flow exists to homogenize more recent mutations at the ecological timescale.
