The Weak Sustainability of the Salmon Feed Transition in Norway – A Bioeconomic Case Study

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
This paper investigates transition pathways using an example from the bioeconomy: salmon farming and feed development in Norway. With a Multi-Level Perspective (MLP), the analysis shows how a crucial biological input factor, feed, was gradually developed

Genomic characterization and phylogenetic position of two new species in Rhabdoviridae infecting the parasitic copepod, salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis). [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
Several new viruses have emerged during farming of salmonids in the North Atlantic causing large losses to the industry. Still the blood feeding copepod parasite, Lepeophtheirus salmonis, remains the major challenge for the industry.

Challenges and emerging technical solutions in on-growing salmon farming [PDF]

, 2016
Farming of Atlantic salmon has grown rapidly from its start in the early 1970s until today, with production approaching two million tonnes. Sea cages are the dominant production system for the on-growing stage of salmon farming.

Why Does Piscirickettsia salmonis Break the Immunological Paradigm in Farmed Salmon? Biological Context to Understand the Relative Control of Piscirickettsiosis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Piscirickettsiosis (SRS) has been the most important infectious disease in Chilean salmon farming since the 1980s. It was one of the first to be described, and to date, it continues to be the main infectious cause of mortality.

Salmon lice infection in wild salmonids in marine protected areas: Comment on Serra-Llinares et al. (2014)

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2016
Serra-Llinares et al. (2014; Aquacult Environ Interact 5:1-16) analysed the association between the estimated production of salmon louse copepodites in salmon farms and lice infection levels in wild salmonids.

The influence of vgll3 genotypes on sea age at maturity is altered in farmed mowi strain Atlantic salmon

BMC Genetics, 2019
Background In Atlantic salmon in the wild, age at maturity is strongly influenced by the vgll3 locus. Under farming conditions, light, temperature and feeding regimes are known significantly advance or delay age at maturity.

Impact of salmon farming on Atlantic cod spatio-temporal reproductive dynamics

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2021
Salmon farming in marine net pens is a major activity in many temperate regions. This industry may affect coastal ecosystems in several ways, such as with waste pollution and parasite spillover.

Impacts on microbial communities in sediments by aquaculture farming during one salmon cycle

Frontiers in Marine Science
In recent years, the salmon farming industry has grown significantly worldwide, and in the Faroe Islands, it has become a major industry with an annual production of over 94,000 tonnes, yielding 24% of the GDP. According to environmental regulations, the

A partly stage-structured model for the abundance of salmon lice in salmonid farms

Epidemics, 2019
The parasitic salmon louse constrains growth in the Norwegian salmon farming industry through density dependent host-parasite interaction. Hence, there is a need for insight into how increases in salmon production, varying spatial organisation of the ...
