“…The average standard lengths of South Pacific Bonito specimens between December 2013 and June 2014 were 41.2, 36.4 and 45.4 cm in the areas of Pozo de Lisas, La Capilla and Chanavayita, respectively. These measures could correspond to young specimens, since there exist reports of maximum length sizes of at least 79 cm in Bonitos from the southern hemisphere [ 25 ]. These small sizes during the reproductive period could coincide with a decrease in average size (length and weight) as a result of the decline in South Pacific Bonito populations due to overfishing.…”

“…Its characteristics include: fusiform body, dark blue in color with a metallic sheen, five to nine dark dorsal to ventral obliquely oriented stripes, weight up to 5.5 kg, and a length up to 1 m. It is notable for its huge mouth and conical teeth, as well for its large, round eyes [ 23 ]; their diet includes other fish such as anchoveta ( Engraulis ringens ), Spanish sardine ( Sardinops sagax ), chub mackerel ( Scomber japonicus ), Chilean jack mackerel ( Trachurus murphyi ) and Atlantic saury ( Scomberesox saurus ) [ 24 ]. This is one example of why it is important to gather knowledge of the biology of S. chiliensis chiliensis , not only for species of economic value, as reported by Pepe-Victoriano et al [ 25 , 26 ], but also for all those species with which they are ecologically related, since an alteration in their dynamics could directly or indirectly affect the survival of any species.…”

The trophic relationships of pelagic fishes with migratory traits such as the South Pacific Bonito, Sarda chiliensis chiliensis (Cuvier, 1832), have not been studied in depth in the past. The objective of the present research was to analyze the feeding habits of South Pacific Bonito by sex and to analyze a comparison between summer and autumn months in three different areas of the eastern South Pacific by applying different techniques used in trophic biology. Between December 2013 and June 2014, specimens were captured in the areas of Pozo de Lisas (Ilo, Peru), La Capilla (Arica, Chile) and Chanavayita (Iquique, Chile). The feeding dynamics and trophic composition of the diet were analyzed, as well as the feeding strategy and trophic relationships. A total of 1404 specimens were analyzed, of which 654 had stomach contents. Seven prey items were identified: (a) fish remains; (b) squid jaw remains; (c) squid gladius remains; (d) caudal fin remains; (e) Engraulis rigens; (f) Pleuroncodes monodon and (g) N/A (not determined). The Pozo de Lisas and La Capilla areas showed homogeneity in their prey items, while the Chanavayita area showed more diversity. Regarding the importance of prey items in the diet of S. chiliensis in the three localities, it would be correct to state that it is a generalist species.

“…This species was able to adapt to the farming conditions in a land-based RAS and started breeding in captivity a year after their capture from the wild. In addition, several spontaneous spawning occurred during the whole summer season [ 50 , 51 ]. These studies and trials have the benefit of improved adaptation to confinement and the domestication of a species with a high commercial value for human consumption and whose life cycle is likely to be fully managed in captivity.…”

The wild population of South Pacific bonito Sarda chiliensis chiliensis, which has a wide distribution in northern Chile, is considered of importance in Chilean aquaculture. The biological feasibility of cultivation of any marine species begins with the establishment of an initial broodstock population to obtain eggs, larvae, and juveniles. In this work, 22 South Pacific bonito fishing campaigns were carried out in Pisagua, Chile, between spring in November 2011 and the summer in January 2012. At least 74 specimens were obtained of which 24 survived the capture and transport processes. Fish were stocked in a recirculating land-based aquaculture system, and at 14 months under captivity, fish began spawning. Eggs were collected, to describe some stages of development, and were placed in incubators at 20 °C and on the third-day eggs hatched. Larvae reached a total length between 1.435 and 1.7 mm, which were accurately characterized during their first morphological changes. This is the first work that describes the capture, transport, and acclimatization in captivity of a breeding population of wild Pacific bonito in Chile.

“…Allometric growth, the differential growth rates of body parts or organs in relation to an organism's overall size or mass, significantly affects the proportions and scaling of body structures, thereby influencing an organism's functional and morphological characteristics. 13,14 This phenomenon has been extensively studied in various fields, including developmental biology, evolutionary biology, and ecology, as it offers valuable insights into the mechanisms driving organismal diversity and adaptation, such as Scophthalmus maximus, 15 Chasmodes saburrae, 16 T. ovatus. 17 Comprehending allometric growth is crucial for understanding biological systems' intricate dynamics and interdependencies.…”

Golden pompano (Trachinotus ovatus) is a marine fish of great commercial value. It was selected for a study on allometric growth using fermented soybean meal (SBM) as the primary protein source during an 8-week culture period. By comparing the gene expression levels of different individuals in the fermented soybean meal group, we discovered that 1026 genes exhibited significant changes in slow and fast-growth individuals. Among these genes, 358 showed high expression levels, while 668 showed low ones. Subsequently, we conducted go function annotation and KEGG pathway enrichment analysis on all the significantly differentially expressed genes. This analysis revealed that many of these genes were associated with oxidative phosphorylation, steroid biosynthesis, glyceride metabolism, alanine, aspartic acid, and glutamate metabolism. Identifying these differentially expressed genes is a foundation for unraveling the molecular mechanisms behind growth and development. Additionally, it provides valuable gene data for future studies on the cloning and expression of growth-related genes and offers insights for subsequent biological research.
