Tolerance of juvenile lumpfish (Cyclopterus Lumpus) to high rearing densities
Journal of the World Aquaculture SocietyLumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) are raised as cleaner fish for controlling sea lice. Intensive rearing is complicated by fin nipping that occurs between juvenile conspecifics.

Causes of Mortality and Loss of Lumpfish Cyclopterus lumpus
Fishes, 2022 Data from research and commercial use of lumpfish were collected from the research facilities of Gifas (Inndyr, Northern Norway, 67.0° N, 14.0° E). The data were sourced from 12 main lumpfish groups subdivided into 66 subgroups (N = 160,729) delivered to

Global, regional, and cryptic population structure in a high gene-flow transatlantic fish [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2023 Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) is a transatlantic marine fish displaying large population sizes and a high potential for dispersal and gene-flow. These features are expected to result in weak population structure.

Physiological Effects of Recapture and Transport from Net-Cages in Lumpfish
Fishes, 2022 Lumpfish are widely used for removing sea lice in salmonid sea-based aquaculture. If these fish are to be harvested and used for human consumption, it is necessary to know how the physical strain associated with removing the lumpfish from the net-cages ...

Transcriptome-wide analyses of early immune responses in lumpfish leukocytes upon stimulation with poly(I:C) [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 BackgroundBoth bacterial and viral diseases are a major threat to farmed fish. As the antiviral immune mechanisms in lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus L.) are poorly understood, lumpfish leukocytes were stimulated with poly(I:C), a synthetic analog of double ...
