Five millennia of mitonuclear discordance in Atlantic bluefin tuna identified using ancient DNA
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2025)Mitonuclear discordance between species is readily documented in marine fishes. Such discordance may either be the result of past natural phenomena or the result of recent introgression from previously seperated species ... -
Interaction between dietary saturated fatty acids and cholesterol on mineral and fatty acid availability and postprandial lipids absorption kinetics in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2025)Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) with an initial weight of approximately 160 g were fed with one of four experimental diets containing low / high levels of saturated fatty acids (SFA, 10 % vs. 24 % of total fatty acid) / ... -
An intronic copy number variation in Syntaxin 17 determines speed of greying and melanoma incidence in Grey horses
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The Greying with age phenotype in horses involves loss of hair pigmentation whereas skin pigmentation is not reduced, and a predisposition to melanoma. The causal mutation was initially reported as a duplication of a 4.6 kb ... -
Side-Stream Based Marine Solubles From Atlantic Cod (Gadus morhua) Modulate Appetite and Dietary Nutrient Utilization in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar L.) and can Replace Fish Meal
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2025)Whitefish fisheries’ side-stream biomass is an abundant underutilized resource that can be valorized to benefit future aquaculture sustainability. Four novel ingredients based on side-streams from Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) ... -
Conservation benefits of marine reserves depend on knowledge integration of genotypic and phenotypic diversity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Conserving intraspecific trait variation is vital for maintaining the viability of species. It ensures a species to adapt to warming and increasingly stochastic environments, and to recover following extreme events. Here ... -
Dietary starch, non-starch polysaccharides and their interactions affect nutrient digestibility, faecal waste production and characteristics differentially in three salmonids: Rainbow trout, Atlantic salmon and Arctic charr
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2025)Waste management has emerged as a critical issue in aquaculture. In this study, we examined the impact of dietary starch and non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) content on nutrient digestibility, faecal waste production, ... -
Temporal changes in visual organic enrichment indicators at an aquaculture site over mixed- and hard-bottom substrates
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Norway employs an environmental management system to assess benthic organic loading from aquaculture activities. Monitoring surveys, mostly performed through grab sampling, scrutinise responses to enrichment within ... -
Complex genetic architecture of the chicken Growth1 QTL region
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The genetic complexity of polygenic traits represents a captivating and intricate facet of biological inheritance. Unlike Mendelian traits controlled by a single gene, polygenic traits are influenced by multiple genetic ... -
Attraction and avoidance of wild demersal fish and crustaceans to open-net aquaculture pens resolved by baited and towed underwater camera surveys
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Wild gadoids are known to have close associations with open-net fish farms, leading to concerns about changes in natural fish distribution and feeding patterns. However, the nature of the relationships between non-pelagic ... -
Enriched local convenience foods with two different small pelagic fish species increases the nutritional value without compromising taste
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Cereals and their derived products are important dietary sources for humans but are mostly deficient in protein and several micronutrients. To increase the nutrient content of rice and wheat flour-based recipes, nutrient-dense ... -
Spatial distribution, morphology, and risk assessment of microplastics in sediment from the Pearl River Estuary, China
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Microplastics (MPs) (<5 mm) are a growing environmental problem and have garnered significant global interest from scientists and policy makers. Coastal ecosystems are vulnerable to MP pollution, and assessing their sources, ... -
Previous, current and future monitoring and management of common minke whales in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)An account of the historical, current and possible future management of common minke whales in Norway is presented. The current management is based on an approach very similar to the International Whaling Commission’s ... -
A genetic cline shapes population structure of the round sardinella along its West African distribution
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Small pelagic fish play an important role in marine trophic webs and human food security. Among those, Sardinella aurita represents an extremely valuable resource in West Africa, where it is assumed to conform a transboundary ... -
Genetic investigation of population structure in Atlantic chub mackerel, Scomber colias Gmelin, 1789 along the West African coast
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Sustainable management of transboundary fish stocks hinges on accurate delineation of population structure. Genetic analysis offers a powerful tool to identify potential subpopulations within a seemingly homogenous stock, ... -
A food-web assessment model for marine mammals, fish, and fisheries in the Norwegian and Barents Seas
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The Norwegian and Barents Seas host large commercial fish populations that interact with each other, as well as marine mammal populations that feed on plankton and fish. Quantifying the past dynamics of these interacting ... -
Lophelia reefs off North and West Africa–Comparing environment and health
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)The health status of cold-water coral reefs on the West African coast was investigated with the main objective of obtaining knowledge of the adaptive capacity of Lophelia pertusa to environmental stressors. Three coral ... -

Improving coral monitoring by reducing variability and bias in cover estimates from seabed images
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)Seabed cover of organisms is an established metric for assessing the status of many vulnerable marine ecosystems. When deriving cover estimates from seafloor imagery, a source of uncertainty in capturing the true distribution ... -
