The taxonomy of clupeiforms has been extensively studied, yet phylogenetic relationships among component taxa remain controversial or unresolved. Here we test current and new hypotheses of relationships among clupeiforms using mitochondrial rRNA genes (12S and 16S) and nuclear RAG1 and RAG2 sequences (total of 4749bp) for 37 clupeiform taxa representing all five extant families and all subfamil...

Assessment of fish stock status is generally required for fisheries management, which difficult when the data are limited. The length-based Bayesian Biomass (LBB) approach a powerful and new method, where only length-frequency used estimating resources. Here, we applied LBB method to assess seven commercially valuable marine fishes from northern tip Bay Bengal (BoB), Bangladesh. These species w...
