Using a length-weight relationship based on wild lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus L.) for estimation of body condition of lumpfish in salmon cages. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
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,

Delousing performance of ballan wrasse (Labrus bergylta) and lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus): seasonal consistency and the challenge of cryptic lice for lumpfish [PDF]

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 5, Page 4661-4668, May 2026.
Ballan wrasse and lumpfish effectively reduce sea lice on salmon year round, although lumpfish struggle with cryptic lice, highlighting new considerations for lice management. Abstract BACKGROUND Cleaner fish play a crucial role in controlling caligid sea lice in Atlantic salmon aquaculture across the North Atlantic.

Exploring the Effects of Acute Stress Exposure on Lumpfish Plasma and Liver Biomarkers [PDF]

Animals, 2023
This study aimed to expand knowledge on lumpfish stress physiology by investigating the effects of acute stress on primary (i.e., cortisol) and secondary (e.g., metabolites) stress responses, as well as oxidative stress biomarkers, from stress exposure ...

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

Lumpfish, Cyclopterus lumpus, distribution in the Gulf of Maine, USA: observations from fisheries independent and dependent catch data [PDF]

PeerJ
The Gulf of Maine (GoM) is one of the fastest-warming parts of the world’s oceans. Some species’ distributional shifts have already been documented, especially for commercially-important species.

Pelagic Larval Duration and Isolation by Distance in Coastal Species [PDF]

Evolutionary Applications, Volume 18, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT Dispersal among populations is crucial both for demographic stability and for the evolutionary potential of species. In marine organisms, dispersal has been shown to be prevalent during pelagic early life stages. Consequently, pelagic larval duration (PLD) has been proposed as an important driver of gene flow in marine species and is ...

Fine‐scale environmentally associated spatial structure of lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) across the Northwest Atlantic [PDF]

Evolutionary Applications, 2023
Lumpfish, Cyclopterus lumpus, have historically been harvested throughout Atlantic Canada and are increasingly in demand as a solution to controlling sea lice in Atlantic salmon farms—a process which involves both the domestication and the transfer of ...

Evolutionary, comparative, and functional analyses of STATs and regulation of the JAK-STAT pathway in lumpfish upon bacterial and poly(I:C) exposure [PDF]

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2023
BackgroundThe Janus kinase/signal transducers and activators of transcription (JAK-STAT) system regulates several biological processes by affecting transcription of genes as a response to cytokines and growth factors.
