The power of genetics: Past and future contribution of balanced genetic selection to sustainable growth and productivity of the Norwegian Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) industry

2022-05-01

Abstract excerpt

In less than 50 years Atlantic salmon farming has become a major industry in Norway, and several attempts at predicting future growth have been made. In all food production, genetics has played an important role in production optimisation and efficiency. The benefits of genetic selection in aquaculture are less documented due to a variable production environment, long production time and challenges such as sea-lic...
