Supergene origin and maintenance in Atlantic cod. [PDF]
Abstract Supergenes are sets of genes that are inherited as a single marker and encode complex phenotypes through their joint action. They are identified in an increasing number of organisms, yet their origins and evolution remain enigmatic.

Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) MHC I localizes to endolysosomal compartments independently of cytosolic sorting signals [PDF]
Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I and II are crucial for the adaptive immune system because they are involved in peptide presentation to T cells.

Modifications of the Structural, Nutritional, and Allergenic Properties of Atlantic Cod Induced by Novel Thermal Glycation Treatments [PDF]
This study aimed to assess the effect of novel thermal glycation, utilizing microwave processing (100−150 °C) combined with sugars (glucose and lactose), on the in vitro protein digestibility, peptides, secondary structures, microstructures, and ...

Protective IgM-mediated immunity against Vibrio anguillarum in Atlantic cod with evolutionary losses of mhc class II and cd4 [PDF]
The unique adaptive immune system of the Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua), with genetic loss of the mhc class II and cd4, poses questions about the protective role of specific antibodies in this species.

The Atlantic Cod MHC I compartment has the properties needed for cross-presentation in the absence of MHC II [PDF]
Atlantic cod has a peculiar immune system, characterized by the loss of Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) class II pathway, and an extreme expansion of the MHC class I gene repertoire.

Systematic characterization of immunoglobulin loci and deep sequencing of the expressed repertoire in the Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) [PDF]
Background The Atlantic cod is a prolific species in the Atlantic, despite its inconsistent specific antibody response. It presents a peculiar case within vertebrate immunology due to its distinct immune system, characterized by the absence of MHCII ...

Physiological responses of Atlantic cod to climate change indicate that coastal ecotypes may be better adapted to tolerate ocean stressors [PDF]
Healthy ecosystems and species have some degree of resilience to changing conditions, however as the frequency and severity of environmental changes increase, resilience may be diminished or lost.

The Atlantic cod was listed as ‘vulnerable’ by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, a condition that persists today. Fishing pressure on the Atlantic cod could be partially transferred to the Pacific cod, since the two cod species share ...
