Cleaner fish escape salmon farms and hybridize with local wrasse populations [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2018 The genetic impact of farmed fish escaping aquaculture is a highly debated issue. However, non-target species, such as cleaner fish used to remove sea lice from farmed fish, are rarely considered.

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Mediterranean finfish aquaculture is mainly represented by the production of the gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata) and sea bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) growing in marine cage farms.

Aquaculture, 2021 Abstract Farmed fish escaping into the wild and other environmental concerns have curbed the expansion of the Norwegian aquaculture industry. Detailed knowledge of both direct and underlying causes of previous escape episodes is crucial to ensure successful development of new technology and targeted safety-measures at fish farms.

Salmon on the lam: Drivers of escaped farmed fish abundance in rivers [PDF]
Journal of Applied Ecology, 2020 Abstract The production of Atlantic salmon in aquaculture has grown substantially over the last 40 years. The unintentional release of domesticated salmon poses a significant risk to the long‐term persistence of wild Atlantic salmon populations through ecological interactions and genetic introgression.

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2021 Farmed fish released in a native environment can display different spawning behaviour compared to their wild conspecifics. In our study, farmed and wild burbot, a species recently introduced for aquacultural production, were equipped with electromyogram (

Phenotypic Convergence in Sea Bass (Dicentrarchus labrax) Escaping From Fish Farms: The Onset of Feralization? [PDF]
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 The impact of fish escaping from fish farms may depend on the extent to which escapees adapt to the natural environment, resemble wild conspecifics, and become feral. Yet, little is known about the process of feralization in marine fish. We examined phenotypic changes in body shape, body condition, and scale growth profiles of sea bass escaping from ...

Farming-up coastal fish assemblages through a massive aquaculture escape event [PDF]
Marine Environmental Research, 2014 We investigated the changes on the mean trophic level of fish assemblages across different spatiotemporal scales, before and after a massive escape event occurred off La Palma (Canary Islands), which resulted in the release of 1.5 million fish (mostly Dicentrarchus labrax) into the wild.

Global assessment of ecological risks associated with farmed fish escapes
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2020 (Uploaded by Plazi for the IPBES Invasive Alien Species Assessment) Aquaculture is the world's fastest growing food-producing sector and currently the main source of fish supply. However, environmental sustainability is one of the main challenges faced by the industry, in particular the inevitable occurrence of fish escapes, which are considered a ...

The impact of escaped farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) on catch statistics in Scotland. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 In Scotland and elsewhere, there are concerns that escaped farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) may impact on wild salmon stocks. Potential detrimental effects could arise through disease spread, competition, or inter-breeding. We investigated whether
