    • The effect of temperature and dietary energy content on female maturation and egg nutritional content in Atlantic salmon 

      Maamela, Katja S.; Åsheim, Eirik Ryvoll; Debes, Paul V.; House, Andrew H.; Erkinaro, Jaakko; Liljeström, Petra; Primmer, Craig R.; Mobley, Kenyon (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2023-01-17)
      The environment experienced by a female influences reproductive traits in many species of fish. Environmental factors such as temperature and diet are not only important mediators of female maturation and reproduction but also of egg traits and offspring fitness through maternal provisioning. In this study, we use 3-year-old tank-reared Atlantic salmon from two Finnish populations to investigate the ...

    • Life history genomic regions explain differences in Atlantic salmon marine diet specialization 

      Aykanat, Tutku; Rasmussen, Martin; Ozerov, Mikhail; Niemelä, Eero; Paulin, Lars; Vähä, Juha-Pekka; Hindar, Kjetil; Wennevik, Vidar; Pedersen, Torstein; Svenning, Martin; Primmer, Craig R. (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-08-16)
      1. Animals employ various foraging strategies along their ontogeny to acquire energy, and with varying degree of efficiencies, to support growth, maturation and subsequent reproduction events. Individuals that can efficiently acquire energy early are more likely to mature at an earlier age, as a result of faster energy gain which can fuel maturation and reproduction.<p><p> 2. We aimed to test the ...

    • Temporally stable population-specific differences in run timing of one-sea-winter Atlantic salmon returning to a large river system 

      Vähä, Juha-Pekka; Erkinaro, Jaakko; Niemelä, Eero; Primmer, Craig R.; Saloniemi, Irma; Johansen, Morten; Svenning, Martin; Brørs, Sturla (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2010-12-06)
      The understanding of migration patterns can significantly contribute to conservation and management. The spawning migrations of Atlantic salmon (<i>Salmo salar</i>) cover thousands of kilometers from the feeding areas at sea to their natal rivers to reproduce. Migrating salmon are exposed to intensive harvest, but little is known of the population‐specific differences in migration behavior. In this ...
