Summary: This research aimed to estimate the withdrawal time for oxytetracycline in rainbow trout and Atlantic salmon after intraperitoneal administration. The study found that most samples met the market standards with a maximum residue limit of 200 μg/kg, but not with a limit of 10 μg/kg, and withdrawal times varied depending on the standard and species.

Summary: Habitat restoration activities in large rivers focus on improving juvenile or adult habitats, but incorporating fry habitat associations into designs can increase overall success. Rainbow trout and brown trout fry were found in habitats with specific substrate sizes, velocities, and depths, with some overlap in associations between the two species. Adjusting restoration activities based on different habitat associations may allow for more effective single-species management and decrease fry infection severity.

Summary: The present research demonstrates that dietary exposure is an alternative route of geosmin uptake in Rainbow Trout fillets, leading to a significant increase in geosmin concentrations. This finding is important for further investigation of sensory quality and off-flavor mitigation strategies for farm-raised fish.

Summary: Disease prevention through vaccination is the most appropriate method for pathogen control in aquaculture, but oral vaccines face technical problems in aquatic animals. This study explores different molecules as oral adjuvants and finds that LPS shows strong immunostimulatory potential and could be safely used as a mucosal adjuvant in rainbow trout.

Summary: The study examined the changes in technological and organoleptic qualities of female rainbow trout flesh after spawning and found that fillet quality gradually recovered over a period of approximately 24 weeks post-spawning. By around 1400 degree C.days after spawning, the quality parameters of the flesh were mostly restored to pre-spawning levels.

Summary: This study investigated the effect of taxifolin on rainbow trout under heat stress and Gyrodactylus flatworm infection. The results showed that taxifolin can alleviate heat-induced responses in fish and regulate the expression of apoptosis regulators, but has no significant effect on antioxidant enzyme expression. Taxifolin treatment does not affect the parasite load of Gyrodactylus infection.

Summary: Flavobacterium psychrophilum is the causative agent of Bacterial Cold Water Disease (BCWD)/ Rainbow Trout Fry Syndrome (RTFS) in rainbow trout. The disease causes significant mortality in trout farms and leads to economic losses in the aquaculture industry. The immature development of adaptive immunity in young life cycle stages hinders successful vaccination, resulting in the widespread use of antibiotics. Selective breeding and identification of markers associated with disease resistance may improve breeding efforts for more resilient strains.

Summary: In order to study the deterioration of rainbow trout muscle quality caused by ammonia exposure, experiments with different concentrations of ammonia stress were conducted. The results showed that higher ammonia exposure led to increased bitterness and decreased umami and sweetness of the muscle, as well as decreased polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) content. The expression of lipid metabolism-related genes was also affected, inhibiting lipid synthesis and promoting lipid oxidation. These findings are important for understanding the relationship between muscle quality, lipid metabolism, and environmental adaptability of rainbow trout (O. mykiss).

Summary: Transgenic fish, such as the GH transgenic coho salmon strain, show significant differences in growth rate and phenotypes compared to wild-type fish. Sex and transgene insertion sites alter transgene expression, while estradiol levels do not directly influence transgene activity. This study highlights the impact of genetic factors and transgene insertion sites on transgene expression and phenotype.

Summary: Despite the lack of understanding how most taxa will respond to future climate change, this research integrates genomics and environmental modeling to assess the responses of an ecologically and economically important Arctic species. The findings reveal past declines in effective population size in the Northwest Atlantic, indicating potential northward shifts and the loss of commercially important life-history variation in response to climate change. The genomic approach used here identifies both past and future declines that impact species persistence, ecosystem stability, and food security in the Arctic.

Summary: The genetic consequences associated with the loss of migratory capacity of landlocked diadromous fishes in freshwater are not well understood. Selective pressures in freshwater residency can lead to differentiation between landlocked and anadromous populations, as well as within landlocked populations. However, genetic drift in isolated landlocked populations may limit consistent adaptation. Understanding the genetic parallelism can have implications for evolution and management practices.

Summary: Pink salmon are the most abundant species among the five native Pacific salmon, with a two-year life history generating temporally isolated populations that spawn either in even-years or odd-years. The study identified peaks of Fst between year-classes, potentially influencing speciation, and found that other regions of the genome influenced by odd-year and even-year temporal isolation were associated with genes related to immune function, organ development/maintenance, and behavior.

Summary: Doubled haploid gynogens are individuals with two identical maternal chromosome sets and no paternal genetic contributions. They are useful in whole-genome sequence assembly to eliminate allelic variation. This study successfully determined the timing for producing doubled haploid gynogens in multiple salmonid species and assessed their survival rate and genotypes.
