Effect of feeding rate on nutrient digestibility in Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L.
Authors
Abstract:
A digestibility trial was conducted to examine the effect of feeding rate on dry matter, gross energy, crude protein and phosphorus digestibility in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). Duplicate groups of fish were fed 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1.0, 1.25 and 1.9% BW/day. The faeces were collected by Guelph-type collectors for five successive days. Dry matter, protein and phosphorus digestibility’s were all significantly (p

Lysozyme transgenic Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)
Disease outbreaks are a major constraint to salmon aquaculture worldwide. Therefore, there is considerable interest in ¢nding means to alleviate this problem by enhancing their innate immune system. Because lysozyme is an important component of this system, we generated a line of transgenic Atlantic salmon using a gene construct consisting of a rainbow trout lysozyme gene under the control of t...

Distribution Th e species’ range encompasses Europe, North America, and Green land (1) (Fig.1). Non-anadromous forms occur in Europe in a few land-locked locations in Norway and Sweden, and throughout the Neva/Lake Ladoga system and Karelia regions of Russia. In North America non-anadromous forms occurred throughout most of the species’ historical range, as far west as Lake Ontario, and remain ...

Rivinoja, P. 2005. Migration Problems of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar L.) in Flow Regulated Rivers. Doctor’s dissertation. ISSS: 1652-6880. ISBN: 91-576-6913-9. Migration patterns of adult Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and smolts of salmon and brown trout (Salmo trutta) were studied in the flow controlled areas of two northern Swedish rivers. Fish behaviour and migration success at passages of ...
full textHistopathological study of gills in experimentally amoebic gill disease (AGD) infected Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, L.
Amoebic gill disease (AGD) is the most important parasitic disease of Atlantic salmon industry inAustralia. Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) experimentally infected with Neoparamoeba sp. apparently showedAGD gross signs on the gill and an amoebic-associated gill pathology. Physico-chemical factors of waterduring the experiment were monitored regularly and were approximately constant (temperature: ...
full textImmunoglobulin Isotypes in Atlantic Salmon, Salmo Salar
There are three major immunoglobulin (Ig) isotypes in salmonid fish: IgM, IgD and IgT, defined by the heavy chains μ, δ and τ, respectively. As a result of whole genome duplication in the ancestor of the salmonid fish family, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) possess two highly similar Ig heavy chain gene complexes (A and B), comprising two μ genes, two δ genes, three intact τ genes and five τ pseu...
