Halibut Treaty Halibut Treaty The Halibut Treaty was a 1923 Canadian–American agreement concerning fishing rights in the northern Pacific Ocean. The treaty established the International Pacific Halibut Commission (IPHC) as a mechanism for the joint management of the Pacific halibut (Hippoglossus stenolepis) which, at that time, was in severe decline. The commission originally had four members but now has six, which are selected from industry and related government agencies. Half the members are Canadian and half are from the United States. The treaty also had a provision for a closed season, so halibut could not be fished during the more dangerous winter
IsomiR isomiRs have been detected deregulated in D. melanogaster development and differential expressed during "Hippoglossus hippoglossus" L. early development, suggesting a biologically relevant function. IsomiR isomiR is a term coined by Morin et al. to refer to those sequences that have variations with respect to the reference miRNA sequence. miRBase is considered to be the gold-standard miRNA database—it stores miRNA sequences detected by thousand of experiments. In this database each miRNA is associated with a miRNA precursor and with one or two mature miRNA (-5p and -3p). Similarly, VIRmiRNA is the only available resource for miRNA in the field of virus.
