Closure effects on Village Fishery Income.

<p>Total village-level octopus fishing income ($PPP) 30 days before, during, and after closures, at villages both with and without closures. The data depicted are from 28 closure periods showing closure-implementing villages and their control villages from 2004–2011. Data are separated by season, thus separating closures that occurred independently of a regional fishery shutdown (“no ban”), and those that extended the shutdown (“ban”). As “during” periods are not exactly 30 days, “during” values are scaled to a per-30-day measure. Significance indicators show distinctions between a particular group and its “before” group comparison, from linear mixed-effect model. NS = Not Significant; * = p < 0.05; ** = p < 0.01; *** = p < 0.001.

Maps of Study Area.

<p>(A) Large-scale map of Madagascar and the African continent, (B) Inset of the 25 villages of the Velondriake Locally Managed Marine Area in southwestern Madagascar. Vertical box extent is ~75 km. (C) Representative example of a periodic octopus fishery closure. Indicated in the map are two villages, Andavadoaka and Ampasilava, with their respective octopus fishing sites mapped in orange and yellow. In green, you can see the sites Amagnahitse and Nosinkara, in which these two villages have repeatedly co-implemented a periodic octopus fishery closure.</p

33496_Ahyacinthus_CoralContigs.fasta

Contigs with putative Cnidarian origin from a de novo transcriptome assembly of Acropora hyacinthus. 16 individual A hyacinthus adult colonies were exposed to control and elevated thermal exposures, mRNA was isolated and sequenced using the Illumina GA IIX platform, assembled, and resulting contigs were screened against known cnidarian databases for strong matches to isolate sequences likely to be coral in origin

33496_MasterCombinedAnnotationTablewHGNC.txt

Combined annotation information for the 33,496 coral contigs from the Acropora hyacinthus de novo assembly. Annotations are based on BLASTx matches to the ncbi nr and uniprot swissprot and TrEMBL databases
