HAVBRUKS-Havbruk - en næring i vekst

Efficient combination of QTL detection and introgression schemes in aquaculture

The commercial Norwegian fish production constantly needs to optimise and improve all parts of the system to continue to be in the forefront of growing international competition. One vital part of the production system is the genetics of the breeding mate rial that it utilises. Most fish populati...

General requirement and cataract preventative effect of dietary histidine relative to dietary lipid sources in Atlantic salmon growers

The amino acid histidine has been identified as a key preventative factor in the development of cataract in Atlantic salmon. The exact mechanism for the cataract mitigation by elevated His is not clear. Histidine covers many important biochemical roles in the salmon lens, such as a component in ...

Environmental impact and molecular regulation of the osmoregulatory gill during parr-smolt transformation in Atlantic salmon

High quality salmon smolts are critical for aquaculture, enhancement programmes and wild populations. Intensification of aquaculture smolt production and changes in natural habitats can cause degradation of environmental conditions, which may severely red uce smolt quality. The gill is critical i...

Proliferative gill inflammation in Atlantic salmon – identification of aetiology

Proliferative gill inflammation (PGI) is an important cause of losses related to mortality and reduced growth rate in seawater farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). Although reported since the 1980s, the disease appears to be increasing both in frequency and degree in later years. It is estimated...

FEEDTAG - A telemetry system for quantification of individual feeding behaviour for improved feed utilization in intensive fish cultures

A low feed conversion ratio (FCR) is a very important criteria in salmon farming management, both economically and environmentally. Key information needed to achieve low FCR is the feeding rate of the fish. Too much feed (feed/min and feed/day) increases feed loss. Reduced feeding may decrease ...

Linking the applied EWOS protein replacement program to the basic research in the Aquaculture Protein Centre

Soy has made a significant contribution to sustainable aquaculture by allowing fish meal replacement. However, high dietary levels of soy induce pathological changes in the hindgut of salmonids. This may also be problematic with other plant materials. Th e content of nutrients, structural compou...
