      Glover, Kevin; Bos, J. B.; Urdal, Kurt; Madhun, Abdullah Sami; Sørvik, Anne Grete Eide; Unneland, Laila; Seliussen, Bjørghild Breistein; Skaala, Øystein; Skilbrei, Ove Tommy; Tang, Y.; Wennevik, Vidar (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016-05)
      Each year, hundreds of thousands of farmed Atlantic salmon escape from fish farms into the wild. Some of these escapees enter freshwater, and manage to interbreed with native populations. To hinder further genetic introgression ...
