      Atlantic salmon undergo smoltification, a process that prepares the fish to enter and thrive in seawater (SW). Several physiological changes occur during smolting, especially in osmoregulatory tissues, the gill, the kidney, and the intestine. Here we characterized the effects on intestinal morphogenesis of two different, commonly used smoltification regimes during the end of the freshwater phase, ...
    • Photoperiod and dietary treatment in freshwater modulate the short-term intestinal response to seawater in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)

      Stimulation and timing of smoltification are essential for successful Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture. This study investigated intestinal responses during dietary and photoperiod manipulation in freshwater (FW) and after a subsequent seven days residence in seawater (SW). “Small” and “large” Atlantic salmon parr (~40 g and ~ 130 g respectively) were treated in FW for 12 weeks and ...
