Genetic screening of farmed Atlantic salmon escapees demonstrates that triploid fish display reduced migration to freshwater

2016-05-01

Abstract excerpt

Each year, hundreds of thousands of farmed Atlantic salmon escape from fish farms into the wild. Some of these escapees enter freshwater, and manage to interbreed with native populations. To hinder further genetic introgression in native populations, the use of sterile triploid salmon within commercial aquaculture is being examined. However, if triploid escapees migrate into freshwater, they may still have ecologi...
