Abstract Parada, J. M., Outeiral, R., Iglesias, E., and Molares, J. 2012. Assessment of goose barnacle (Pollicipes pollicipes Gmelin, 1789) stocks in management plans: design of a sampling program based on the harvesters' experience. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 69: 1840–1849. Management plans of coastal marine resources require a wealth of information on socioeconomic topics, harvesting activities, population dynamics, and stock status. Moreover, the information provided by technical experts must take into account the needs of the managers. It must also adapt to schedules to serve a useful purpose. In many cases, the methodologies used by research teams are not directly applicable as they may be too complicated, aimed at specific objectives related to basic scientific work, or too costly to apply to long-term monitoring of extensive shellfish beds. Also, rocky coastlines exposed to heavy wave action preclude the use of sampling techniques that involve time-consuming data collection. This paper proposes a quick and simple methodology for gathering data in the field, based on the knowledge of the harvesters, to obtain stock assessments in keeping with their information needs. This methodology uses coverage percentage as an abundance index and weighting factor for the biometric information gathered from 50 specimens in each sampling. The sampling design uses the knowledge of the harvesters to define homogeneous strata. The results are in agreement with both the scientific-technical knowledge and the harvesters' knowledge of the populations being analysed.

Adhesive secretion has a fundamental role in barnacles’ survival, keeping them in an adequate position on the substrate under a variety of hydrologic regimes. It arouses special interest for industrial applications, such as antifouling strategies, underwater industrial and surgical glues, and dental composites. This study was focused on the goose barnacle Pollicipes pollicipes adhesion system, a species that lives in the Eastern Atlantic strongly exposed intertidal rocky shores and cliffs. The protein composition of P. pollicipes cement multicomplex and cement gland was quantitatively studied using a label-free LC-MS high-throughput proteomic analysis, searched against a custom transcriptome-derived database. Overall, 11,755 peptide sequences were identified in the gland while 2880 peptide sequences were detected in the cement, clustered in 1616 and 1568 protein groups, respectively. The gland proteome was dominated by proteins of the muscle, cytoskeleton, and some uncharacterized proteins, while the cement was, for the first time, reported to be composed by nearly 50% of proteins that are not canonical cement proteins, mainly unannotated proteins, chemical cues, and protease inhibitors, among others. Bulk adhesive proteins accounted for one-third of the cement proteome, with CP52k being the most abundant. Some unannotated proteins highly expressed in the proteomes, as well as at the transcriptomic level, showed similar physicochemical properties to the known surface-coupling barnacle adhesive proteins while the function of the others remains to be discovered. New quantitative and qualitative clues are provided to understand the diversity and function of proteins in the cement of stalked barnacles, contributing to the whole adhesion model in Cirripedia.

Owing to the peculiar morphology of the goose barnacle Pollicipes pollicipes (Gmelin, 1789), many different biometric variables have been used in its study. The lack of a standard morphological variable makes it difficult to compare results from different authors. This aspect takes on even greater importance, since the goose barnacle is a commercially exploited species and must be regulated with clear-cut technical measures related to its biology. The need to measure a large quantity of specimens in the management and control of the fishery calls for a biometric variable that can be processed easily and requires little training. The base of the rostrum and the apex of the subcarina form two conspicuous clefts in the capitulum of the goose barnacle, allowing a calliper to be fitted quickly and easily. The results of this study showed that the diameter of the base of the capitulum (DBC), defined as the distance between these two clefts, may be considered a consistent variable both when the same specimen is measured by two different technicians and when the measurements taken from a fresh specimen are compared with the measurements taken after the specimen has been frozen and then thawed. In order to make comparisons easier, two linear equations have been found to relate DBC and two of the more usual biometric variables: rostral-carinal distance (RC) and capitulum height (CH). The mean length at sexual maturity was also calculated in terms of DBC (13.35 mm) for specimens collected on the Galician coast (NW Spain).

The International Dairy Federation (IDF), a non-governmental, non-political international organization was established in 1903. The IDF derives its finances from the annual membership fee (current membership - 31 countries). Membership is accorded to countries through their National Committees representing the country's various dairy interests. These Committees are the link between IDF and the member country. The IDF Executive Committee deals with policy matters delegated by the Supreme body of IDF, the General Assembly, and develops proposals for General Assembly consideration. A permanent secretariat under the direction of Mr. P. Staal, Secretary-General, coordinates IDF activities and carries out the current business at the IDF House, Brussels, Belgium. The technical and scientific work of IDF, under the guidance of the Commission of Studies, is carried out in six special Commissions whose subject matter covers all aspects of interest to the dairy industry. The objective of IDF, which is to promote, through international cooperation, solution of -scientific, technical and economic problems in the international dairy field, is achieved through the voluntary work of hundreds of the world's dairy industry leaders. This work is done by Groups of Experts or at Annual Sessions. IDF-sponsored Seminars or Symposia and Congresses.
