World Octopus Fisheries
153 pages, 97 figures, 10 tables, 2 appendixesRecent studies have shown that coastal and shelf cephalopod populations have increased globally over the last six decades. Although cephalopod landings are dominated by the squid fishery, which represents nearly 80% of the worldwide cephalopod catches, octopuses and cuttlefishes represent ∼10% each. Total reported global production of octopuses over the past three decades indicates a relatively steady increase in catch, almost doubling from 179,042 t in 1980 to 355,239 t in 2014. Octopus fisheries are likely to continue to grow in importance and magnitude as many finfish stocks are either fully or over-exploited. More than twenty described octopus species are harvested from some 90 countries worldwide. The current review describes the major octopus fisheries around the globe, providing an overview of species targeted, ecological and biological features of exploited stocks, catches and the key aspects of managementIGG has been supported by the Japan Science and Technology Agency (Grants J130000263 and AS2715164U).

Targeted single gene mutation in esophageal adenocarcinoma
Esophageal adenocarcinoma is heterogeneous and studies have reviewed many important mutations that contribute to the pathogenesis of the cancer. These discoveries have helped paved the way into identifying new gene markers or gene targets to develop novel molecular directed therapy for better patient outcomes in esophageal adenocarcinoma. Despite the recent bloom in next-generation sequencing, Sanger sequencing still represents the gold standard method for the study of the driver genes in esophageal adenocarcinoma. This chapter focuses on the sequencing techniques in identification of single gene mutations.</p
