Summary: Atlantic cod and American plaice are commercially valuable species in the Barents Sea and are found to carry the nematodes from the Phocanema genus. The high abundance of Phocanema in these fish provides a convenient opportunity to study the genetic structure of these populations. Genetic analysis revealed that most of the isolated juveniles belonged to the species P. bulbosum. Furthermore, there were no significant differences found between the groups from different hosts and catch areas.

Summary: Commercially exploitable concentrations of Atlantic cod were found on the shelf around Jan Mayen in 2018. In the period of 2019-2021, an exploratory cod fishery was conducted, resulting in a total catch of 1737 tonnes. This area had minimal cod catches before 2018, with the first records of cod fishery dating back to the early 1930s. Cod spawning was documented for the first time in this area in 2019-2020.

Summary: In this study, tropomyosin from Atlantic cod fillets was purified and its structural configuration and antigenicity under different conditions were investigated. The results showed that CTM retained solubility, integrity, and antigenicity.

Summary: This study assessed the growth and spoilage potential of Aeromonas bacteria in Atlantic cod fillets under different modified atmospheres. The results showed that atmospheres containing CO2/O2 or CO2/N2 significantly inhibited bacterial growth, while vacuum packaging promoted growth. Inoculation with bacteria did not significantly affect spoilage metabolite production.

Summary: Crude oil and single components like Phenanthrene can cause cardiotoxicity by interfering with excitation-contraction coupling. This study shows that the timing of exposure greatly affects the severity of cardiac dysfunction, with late exposure causing more severe abnormalities than early exposure. Early exposure to Phenanthrene had no effect on cardiac development and function.

Summary: The study found that Atlantic cod in the western Gulf of Maine are managed as a single stock, but actually consist of two spawning groups (spring and winter) with significant genetic differentiation. By selecting specific SNP panels, researchers can effectively differentiate between different spawning groups and genders.

Summary: The study suggests that spawning zones may be a universal trait of Atlantic cod and not limited to specific environments or migratory behaviors. Age at maturity derived from spawning zone data shows similar trends to gonad maturity stages, but there is a lag of one to two years between spawning events and sexual maturity, likely reflecting a stabilization of energy partitioning.

Summary: Marine fish industries generate significant amounts of fish waste annually, with a majority being discarded in the form of skins, bones, fins, heads, guts, and scales, containing high levels of collagen type I. This study investigates the extraction of collagen from waste using deep eutectic solvents (DES) to develop a more efficient, cost-effective, and biocompatible process.

Summary: A study found two sympatric ecotypes of Atlantic cod in the Skagerrak and Kattegat region, indicating different adaptations to the environment. This highlights the importance of considering locally adapted ecotypes for fisheries management.

Summary: In this study, the optimal foraging strategy of Atlantic cod was investigated, taking into account both macro- and micro-nutritional requirements. The study found that proteins are crucial for gonad development, and the energy acquired from dietary protein should be twice that acquired from lipids, with a small increase in lipid requirements during gonad growth. The study also revealed that cod consumed more ARA-rich crabs in the months prior to spawning, despite their poor energetic value, thus supporting the model predictions.

Summary: Recent advancements in molecular methods and data processing have facilitated research on anisakid nematodes. While most efforts have focused on the genus Anisakis, there is a need for data on the genus Pseudoterranova. This study examines the differential gene expression between liver and viscera samples of Pseudoterranova bulbosa, and identifies potential allergenicity genes in the nematode.

Summary: The study estimated the numbers and instantaneous mortality rate Z of haddock and cod larvae in a hatchery from 0 to 50 days post hatch using direct and non-destructive methods. Results showed that the mortality rate of haddock larvae was higher than that of cod larvae, with variations observed. The technique proved useful for estimating Z in hatchery mesocosms and examining the causes and timing of larval mortality.
