Microbial Communities in a Flow-Through Fish Farm for Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus L.) During Healthy Rearing Conditions [PDF]
Lumpfish can efficiently remove sea lice from Atlantic salmon in net-pens, and production of lumpfish in closed fish farms is a new, fast developing industry in Norway. However, periodic outbreaks of bacterial diseases in the fish farms represent a large

Using a length-weight relationship based on wild lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus L.) for estimation of body condition of lumpfish in salmon cages. [PDF]
The use of lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus L.) as cleaner fish in Atlantic salmon aquaculture has emerged as a promising solution to combat the issue of sea lice infestation, as they have proven effective under the right conditions. The aquaculture industry,

Genetic structure of the lumpfish Cyclopterus lumpus across the North Atlantic [PDF]
AbstractLumpfish, or lumpsucker, Cyclopterus lumpus (Linnaeus, 1758) is widely distributed in the North Atlantic Ocean. It has a considerable economic value and substantial fisheries occur in several North Atlantic regions owing to the use of its fully ripe internal egg masses in the ovaries as an alternative to sturgeon caviar.

Genetic structure of West Greenland populations of lumpfish Cyclopterus lumpus
In this study, 11 microsatellite markers were used to determine the structure of West Greenlandic lumpfish Cyclopterus lumpus populations across six spawning locations spanning >1500 km and compared with neighbouring populations in Canada and Iceland. To evaluate whether data allow for identification of origin of C.

Vaccinology and resistance to bacterial infection in lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus)
Aquaculture is one of the fastest-growing food sectors, contributing approximately 80 million tonnes of aquatic animals with a value of US $232 billion. Salmon is the most commercially important farmed seafood species cultured in Canada. Farmed salmon (e.g., Atlantic salmon, Coho salmon, and Chinook salmon) account for about 90% of the total finfish ...
