Abstract excerpt
Domestication and artificial selection for desirable traits have driven significant phenotypic changes and left detectable genomic footprints in farmed animals. Since the 1960s, intensive breeding has led to the rapid domestication of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), with multiple independent events that make it a valuable model for studying early domestication stages and the parallel evolution of populations of...
