Abstract

The fishery genetics tissue collection has over 80,000 tissues stored in 95% ethanol representing fishes and invertebrates collected globally but with a focus on the North Pacific. These samples are focused on sharks (primarily blue, mako and common thresher), groundfish (primarily Sebastes spp.), and highly migratory species (tunas, billfish, yellowtail, opah) but also contain assorted other samples including parasites from some animals, eggs and larvae, and abalone (primarily pink abalone).
