TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that under the current fishing regime, stock productivity and fleet profitability are generally impaired by a combination of high fishing mortality and inadequate selectivity patterns, and that a simple reduction in the current mortality towards an MSY reference value, without any change in the fishing selectivity, will allow neither stock biomass nor fisheries yield and revenue to be maximized.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the current state-of-the-art in discards research, with particular emphasis on the needs and challenges associated with the implementation of the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries Management (EAFM) in European waters.

TL;DR: The relationship between cephalopod stock dynamics and environmental conditions is of two main types: those concerning the geographic distribution of abundance, for which the mechanism is often unknown, and those relating to biological processes such as egg survival, growth, recruitment and migration, where mechanisms are sometimes known and in a very few cases demonstrated by experimental evidence as discussed by the authors.

TL;DR: An inter-national synthesis of discard data collected on board commercial, towed-gear equipped vessels operating under six different national flags spanning from the Baltic to the Mediterranean Seas mainly between 2003 and 2008 reveals that in the Mediterranean Sea minimum size-regulated species such as hake are generally discarded in much lower numbers than elsewhere.

TL;DR: It is concluded that there is a potential for allergic reactions to latex in patients with allergy to fruit, and patients with fruit allergy should be screened for individual risk of latex allergy.
