Deploying new generation sequencing for the study of flesh color depletion in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) [PDF]
BMC Genomics, 2021 Background The flesh pigmentation of farmed Atlantic salmon is formed by accumulation of carotenoids derived from commercial diets. In the salmon gastrointestinal system, the hindgut is considered critical in the processes of carotenoids uptake and ...
