Atlantic salmon male post-smolt maturation can be reduced by using a 3-hour scotophase when inducing smoltification
Fraser, Thomas; Hansen, Tom Johnny; Norberg, Birgitta; Nilsen, Tom Ole; Schulz, Rüdiger W.; Fjelldal, Per Gunnar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Photoperiod regulates the occurrence of unwanted male post-smolt maturation during the production of large (>100 g) Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) smolts. However, the optimal daylength for triggering smoltification, but ... -
Entry into puberty is reflected in changes in hormone production but not in testicular receptor expression in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
Schulz, Rüdiger W.; Taranger, Geir Lasse; Bogerd, Jan; Nijenhuis, Wouter; Norberg, Birgitta; Male, Rune; Andersson, Eva (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-06-21)Background Puberty in male Atlantic salmon in aquaculture can start as early as after the first winter in seawater, stunts growth and entails welfare problems due to the maturation-associated loss of osmoregulation capacity ... -
Functional Evolution of Clustered Aquaporin Genes Reveals Insights into the Oceanic Success of Teleost Eggs
Ferré, Alba; Chauvigné, Francois; Vlasova, Anna; Norberg, Birgitta; Bargelloni, Luca; Guigó, Roderic; Finn, Roderick Nigel; Cerdà, Joan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Aquaporin-mediated oocyte hydration is considered important for the evolution of pelagic eggs and the radiative success of marine teleosts. However, the molecular regulatory mechanisms controlling this vital process are ... -
Interaction of temperature and feed ration on male postsmolt maturation of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)
Pino Martinez, Enrique; Balseiro Vigo, Pablo; Stefansson, Sigurd Olav; Kaneko, Nobuto; Norberg, Birgitta; Fleming, Mitchell Stewart; Imsland, Albert; Handeland, Sigurd Olav (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Early maturation of Atlantic salmon male postsmolts is undesirable in aquaculture due to its negative impact on growth, welfare and seawater adaptation, however it is an increasing problem under intensive rearing conditions. ... -
Interaction of temperature and photoperiod on male postsmolt maturation of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)
Pino Martinez, Enrique; Balseiro Vigo, Pablo; Fleming, Mitchell Stewart; Stefansson, Sigurd Olav; Norberg, Birgitta; Imsland, Albert; Handeland, Sigurd Olav (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2023)Maturation of Atlantic salmon male postsmolts is a concern in aquaculture due to its increasing occurrence under intensive rearing conditions and its negative impact on growth, welfare and seawater readiness. The effect ... -
Lumpfish Cyclopterus lumpus reproduction: Pituitary gene expression, physiological and morphological changes accompanying gonadal maturation
Andersson, Eva; Denker, Elsa; Norberg, Birgitta; Schulz, Rüdiger W.; Olausson, Sara; Thorsen, Anders; Stefansson, Sigurd Olav; Imsland, Albert (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Lumpfish is the most important cleanerfish species in Atlantic salmon farming. Detailed information on the gonadal maturation process is a prerequisite for year-round production of juvenile lumpfish. In the present study ... -
Quantitative proteome profiling reveals molecular hallmarks of egg quality in Atlantic halibut: impairments of transcription and protein folding impede protein and energy homeostasis during early development
Yilmaz, Ozlem; Mangor-Jensen, Anders; Harboe, Torstein; Drønen, Margareth Møgster; Mangor-Jensen, Ragnfrid; Mjaavatten, Olav; Birkeland, Even; Spriet, Endy; Sandven, Linda; Furmanek, Tomasz; Berven, Frode Steingrimsen; Wargelius, Anna; Norberg, Birgitta (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Background Tandem mass tag spectrometry (TMT labeling-LC-MS/MS) was utilized to examine the global proteomes of Atlantic halibut eggs at the 1-cell-stage post fertilization. Comparisons were made between eggs judged to ... -
The stress response in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.): identification and functional characterization of the corticotropin-releasing factor (crf) paralogs
Lai, Floriana; Royan, Muhammad Rahmad; Gomes, Ana S.; Espe, Marit; Aksnes, Anders; Norberg, Birgitta; Gelebart, Virginie; Rønnestad, Ivar (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Corticotropin-Releasing Factor (CRF) is one of the main mediators of the Hypothalamic-Pituitary–Interrenal (HPI) axis to stress response. In Atlantic salmon, a comparative understanding of the crf1 paralogs role in the ... -
The use of photoperiods to provide year round spawning in lumpfish Cyclopterus lumpus
Imsland, Albert; Hangstad, Thor Arne; Jonassen, Thor Magne; Stefansson, Sigurd Olav; Nilsen, Tom Ole; Hovgaard, Peter; Elvegård, Tor Anders; Lindberg, Ken Ståle; Mikalsen, Bjørn; Urskog, Tonje Cecilie; Norberg, Birgitta; Andersson, Eva; Spetland, Frank; Reynolds, Patrick (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)In order to provide year round spawning broodstock, lumpfish (initial size 746 g and 24.9 cm) were reared under four different photoperiod regimes from January 2017 to July 2018. One group was reared under simulated natural ...
