Common-garden comparison of relative survival and fitness-related traits of wild, farm, and hybrid Atlantic salmon Salmo salar parr in nature Open
When escapee farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar interbreed with wild fish, the introgression of maladaptive genes can lower wild population productivity and alter key life history traits. To date, only a few European studies have compared …

Population genetics reveal patterns of natural colonisation of an ecologically and commercially important invasive fish Open
Although historical records of introductions that trigger successful biological invasions are common, subsequent patterns of dispersal and colonisation routes are unclear. We use microsatellites to examine genetic population structuring of…

Early-life fitness trait variation among divergent European and North American farmed and Newfoundland wild Atlantic salmon populations Open
It has long been clear that interbreeding between domesticated and wild Atlantic salmon can lead to negative fitness consequences for native populations. Few studies, however, have examined these consequences at critical early life stages,…

Beyond hybridization: the genetic impacts of nonreproductive ecological interactions of salmon aquaculture on wild populations Open
Cultured Atlantic salmon Salmo salar are of international socioeconomic value, and the process of domestication has resulted in significant behavioural, morphological, and allelic differences from wild populations. Substantial evidence ind…

Evaluating the effect of dorsal muscle biopsies on adult Atlantic salmon growth and marine return rates Open
Increasing conservation and animal-welfare concerns have driven the development of non-lethal sampling of fish populations, with the use of muscle tissue biopsies now being routinely applied as a sampling method in the wild. Crucial to the…

Influence of life-history-dependent migration strategies on Atlantic salmon diets Open
Migratory behaviour may vary according to the life history and demographic attributes of fish and lead to the spatial segregation of distinct population segments during the non-breeding season. In adult Atlantic salmon, spawning history di…

Can variation in standard metabolic rate explain context‐dependent performance of farmed Atlantic salmon offspring? Open
Escaped farmed Atlantic salmon interbreed with wild Atlantic salmon, leaving offspring that often have lower success in nature than pure wild salmon. On top of this, presence of farmed salmon descendants can impair production of wild‐type …
