Assignment of Gilthead Seabream <i>Sparus aurata</i> to Its Origin through Scale Shape and Microchemistry Composition: Management Implications for Aquaculture Escapees

This study tests the suitability of the gilthead seabream scales as a proxy for origin selection in wild and anthropogenically pressured environments. Scale morphology and microchemistry were used to discriminate the habitat selection of two wild, farmed and wild farm-associated populations where la...
