The nature of fisheries‐and farming‐induced evolution
Humans have a penchant for unintentionally selecting against that which they desire most.
In fishes, unprecedented reductions in abundance have been associated with …

Reduced physiological plasticity in a fish adapted to stable temperatures
Plasticity can allow organisms to maintain consistent performance across a wide range of
environmental conditions. However, it remains largely unknown how costly plasticity is and …

Fitness reduction and potential extinction of wild populations of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, as a result of interactions with escaped farm salmon
The high level of escapes from Atlantic salmon farms, up to two million fishes per year in the
North Atlantic, has raised concern about the potential impact on wild populations. We report …

Half a century of genetic interaction between farmed and wild Atlantic salmon: status of knowledge and unanswered questions
Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) is one of the best researched fishes, and its aquaculture plays
a global role in the blue revolution. However, since the 1970s, tens of millions of farmed …

Fugitive salmon: Assessing the risks of escaped fish from net-pen aquaculture
The farming of salmon and other marine finfish in open net pens continues to increase along
the world's coastlines as the aquaculture industry expands to meet human demand. Farm …

Implications of domestication and rearing conditions for the behaviour of cultivated fishes
FA Huntingford - Journal of Fish Biology, 2004 - Wiley Online Library
Farmed fishes are often selectively bred for desirable production traits, such as rapid growth,
that brings with them behavioural differences. In addition, the striking differences in the …

Interactions between hatchery and wild salmonids in streams: differences in biology and evidence for competition
ED Weber, KD Fausch - Canadian Journal of Fisheries and …, 2003 - cdnsciencepub.com
Competition between hatchery-reared and wild salmonids in streams has frequently been
described as an important negative ecological interaction, but differences in behavior …

Cultured Atlantic salmon in nature: a review of their ecology and interaction with wild fish
When cultured Atlantic salmon are released into nature, they compete with wild fish for food,
space, and breeding partners. As a result of morphological, physiological, ecological, and …

Predators select against high growth rates and risk–taking behaviour in domestic trout populations
Domesticated (farm) salmonid fishes display an increased willingness to accept risk while
foraging, and achieve high growth rates not observed in nature. Theory predicts that …
