Apparent availability of zinc, selenium and manganese as inorganic metal salts or organic forms in plant-based diets for Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-03)The composition of salmonid diets has changed from the use of mainly marine ingredients to increased use of plant ingredients, and this has an impact on the mineral content and availability. Minerals, like zinc (Zn), ... -
Black soldier fly larvae meal can replace fish meal in diets of sea-water phase Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-12-12)A feeding trial was conducted to test the growth potential, nutritional utilization, liver health and fillet sensory parameters of sea-water Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) fed diets with increasing substitution of fish ... -
Characterization of a novel RXR receptor in the salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis, Copepoda) regulating growth and female reproduction
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-02-14)Background: Nuclear receptors have crucial roles in all metazoan animals as regulators of gene transcription. A wide range of studies have elucidated molecular and biological significance of nuclear receptors but there are ... -
Characterization of ‘Candidatus Syngnamydia salmonis’ (Chlamydiales, Simkaniaceae), a bacterium associated with epitheliocystis in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-01)Two Chlamydiales have previously been found to infect Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.), Candidatus Piscichlamydia salmonis and Candidatus Clavichlamydia salmonicola. Both develop intracellularly in cyst-like inclusions in ... -
Chasing waterfalls; A method to detect natural barriers to salmon and trout migration

Cloning, expression and purification of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar, L.) neuroglobin
(Journal article, 2012)Neuroglobin (Ngb) exists only in small amounts in salmon brain. In order to study the protein in more detail salmon neuroglobin (sNgb) was cloned, hetereologously expressed in E.coli and purified. The protein had red color ... -
Detection of the myxosporean parasite Parvicapsula pseudobranchicola in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) using in situ hybridization (ISH)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2015-02-15)Background: Parvicapsula pseudobranchicola is a marine myxosporean parasite infecting farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). A major site for the parasite is the pseudobranch, which may be destroyed in heavily infected fish. ... -
Dietary histidine supplementation prevents cataract development in adult Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., in seawater
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2010-11)The aim of the present study was to investigate the cataract preventive effect of dietary histidine regimes in adult Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) in seawater, both through manipulating the dietary histidine level and ... -
Ectopic epithelial cell clusters in salmonid intestine are associated with inflammation
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018-06-11)An epizootic incidence of intestinal adenocarcinomas was reported in brood fish of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) in 2009. The condition was associated with a specific diet inducing enteritis and morphological changes. ... -
Effect of levels and sources of dietary manganese on growth and mineral composition of post-smolt Atlantic salmon fed low fish meal, plant-based ingredient diets
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-10-15)The impact of dietary manganese (Mn) levels and sources on the growth and mineral composition of post-smolt Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) fed practical diets was studied. Seven experimental diets were prepared with graded ... -
The effect of low temperatures and photoperiods on growth in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(Master thesis, 2015-07-01)This thesis examines the growth response of Atlantic salmon post-smolt (Salmo salar) in a factorial experiment with three temperatures and two light regimes. The aim of this study was to investigate under laboratory ... -
Effects of environmental stress on mRNA expression levels of seven genes related to oxidative stress and growth in Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L. of farmed, hybrid and wild origin
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2012-12-05)Background: Ten generations of domestication selection has caused farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L. to deviate from wild salmon in a range of traits. Each year hundreds of thousands of farmed salmon escape into the ... -
Effects of gas supersaturation on migrating Atlantic salmon smolt (Salmo salar) in Evangervatnet
(Master thesis, 2016-11-21)Total dissolved gas supersaturation (TDGS) downstream of power plants may cause harmful effects on the fauna in many rivers. The harmful effects of TDGS are known as gas bubble disease (GBD). TDGS has been proposed as one ... -
Effects of rapid temperature changes on Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, post-smolts
(Master thesis, 2017-06-28)Year round production of Atlantic salmon post-smolts in closed or semi-closed systems opens up for use of seawater from different depths, which will permit stocking of fish from closed containment system to the open sea ... -
Estimating genetic diversity in a domesticated population of Norwegian Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) using genomic data
(Master thesis, 2017-12-15)New developments of high throughput sequencing technologies have allowed for breeders to assess values related to loss of genetic diversity in domesticated animals on a genomic level for better accuracy than the pedigree ... -
Evolutionary drivers of kype size in atlantic salmon (salmo salar): domestication, age and genetics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019-04-17)The diversity of reproduction and associated mating patterns in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) has long captivated evolutionary biologists. Salmo salar exhibit strategies involving migration, bold mating behaviours and ... -
