TL;DR: The present study investigated the age, growth, mortality and morphometry of the sand smelt, Atherina boyeri, in the Mala Neretva River estuary (mid-eastern Adriatic Sea) and showed that the population is up to 4 years of age.

TL;DR: Although the chances of successfully farming Trachinotus ovatus on a commercial scale are limited by the low food conversion rates, this species deserves further applied studies on the basis of their quick adaptation to confinement and their tolerance of captivity conditions.

TL;DR: It is shown that the intensity of the carotenoid Raman signal is indeed a good indicator of fruit freshness and a Raman coefficient of freshness (CFresh), whose time course is linearly decreasing, with different slope for different citrus groups is introduced.

TL;DR: The threat posed by invasive non-native species worldwide requires a global approach to identify which introduced species are likely to pose an elevated risk of impact to native species and ecosystems.

TL;DR: Results imply that farmed escapees are involved in genetic pollution of adjacent wild populations showing lower differentiation among themselves, which strongly encourages strengthening of routine aquaculture practice in the Adriatic through development of genetic-based management for broodstock, fingerlings and farmed fish, as well as better zootechnological protocol related to maintenance of nets and cages.
