Aquaculture is the fastest-growing farmed food sector and will soon become the primary
source of fish and shellfish for human diets. In contrast to crop and livestock production …

Over the past decades, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar, Salmonidae) has emerged as a model
system for sexual maturation research, owing to the high diversity of life history strategies …

Ecological regime shifts are abrupt changes in the structure and function of ecosystems that
persist over time, but evidence of contemporary regime shifts are rare. Historical scale data …

After a half a century of salmon farming, we have yet to understand how the influx of genes
from farmed escapees affects the full life history of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) in the …

The expansion of salmonid aquaculture has resulted in environmental challenges, including
salmon lice that may infest both farmed and wild fish. For wild Atlantic salmon post-smolts …

The release of domesticated conspecifics into the natural environment, whether deliberate
or accidental, has the potential to alter the genetic integrity and evolutionary trajectory of wild …

Whilst aquaculture continues its global expansion, containment of fish in sea cages remains
a persistent environmental challenge. Within Atlantic salmon Salmo salar farming …

Domestication involves adapting animals to the human-controlled environment. Genetic
changes occurring during the domestication process may manifest themselves in …

Atlantic salmon in aquaculture act as reservoir hosts and vectors of parasites like salmon
lice and this parasite is shown to harm wild salmonid populations. In this study, n= 29,817 …

Wild Atlantic salmon populations have declined in many regions and are affected by diverse
