Project description:Tenacibaculum finnmarkense is a novel Gram-negative, aerobic bacterial strain causing skin ulcers in Atlantic salmon. This is an emerging pathogen, which may cause serious problems to aquaculture. The study was designed to compare the life stages (smolt and posmolt) and to assess effects of environment (fresh and brackis water) on the course of disease and salmon responses to the pathogen.
Project description:Recirculation systems (RAS), which reduce water consumption and improve pathogen control are increasingly used in Atlantic salmon aquaculture. Performance and adaptation of fish to new farming environment is actively investigated. Here, responses to crowding stress were compared in salmon reared in two systems (RAS with brackish water and flowthrough with full salinity water) at low and high density.
Project description:There is an increasing drive to replace fish oil (FO) in finfish aquaculture diets with vegetable oils (VO), driven by the short supply of FO derived from wild fish stocks. Little is known of the consequences for fish health after such substitution. The effect of dietary VO on hepatic gene expression was determined in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) byg a cDNA microarray analysis. Post-smolt farmed salmon were reared for x weeks on diets where the FO component of the feed was replaced with one of three different VOs - rapeseed (RO), soybean (SO) or linseed (LO). RNA from five fish fed on each diet was extracted. A total of 20 cDNA microarray hybridisations - TRAITS / SGP Atlantic salmon 17k feature cDNA microarray - were performed - 4 diets (three VO + FO control) x 5 individuals - using a common pooled reference control design. Data were obtained from 19 of the 20 hybridisations.
Project description:The present study aimed to identify the persistent molecular changes occurring in Atlantic Salmon salmon (Salmo salar) eggs after 24h exposure to high concentrations (5000 mg/L) of road salt at fertilization.
Project description:PD and HSMI are viral diseases that cause heavy damages in Atlantic salmon aquaculture. This study was performed to examine and compare the time-courses of transcriptome responses to the causative agents - salmon alphavirus (SAV) and piscine reovirus (PRV).
Project description:The anadromous Atlantic salmon undergo preparatory physiological transformations before seawater entry, referred to as smoltification. Little is known about the photoperiod-influence and genome regulatory processes driving smoltification such as the large scale changes in lipid metabolism and energy homeostasis in the developing smolt liver. To shed light on this, we performed a smoltification trial using contrasting photoperiod regimes and generate a transcriptome data from livers throughout smoltification and after seawater transfer. In this experiment two groups of Atlantic salmon were reared for a total of 46 weeks from the parr stage, through smoltification, and seawater transfer. After 21 week from first feeding, the experiment group was given artificial winter photoperiod (8 hours light, 16 hours dark) for 8 weeks to induce smoltification before returning to constant light. The second control group received constant light throughout the experiment. Liver tissue was sampled from individuals first at week 1, 21 weeks after first feeding, then again at week 10, after the winter period, at week 19, after the expected smoltification time, and lastly at week 25, after transfer to seawater.
