New Fish and Fisheries review on hybridisation in marine fish

6 Oct 2023

A new review, coordinated by Carmelo, on the topic of hybridisation in marine fish is just out “early view” in Fish and Fisheries.

The review is published open access and focuses on pelagic and deep water fish. We argue that hybridisation in these fish may be under-detected compared to coastal and shallow-water fish. We discuss why this may be problematic (as pelagic and deep water fish are often of interest for commercial fisheries) and how the situation may be ameliorated, including with the involvement of researchers working on fisheries.
