It is now possible to measure genetic changes in Norwegian wild salmon populations due to interbreeding with escaped farmed salmon. The tool Norwegian scientists have developed will provide important knowledge in the debate about escaped farmed salmon.
In order to be able to use the tool on salmon from all breeding program and all Norwegian wild salmon stocks, the scientists have hunted for gene variants which occur with a different frequency in all farmed salmon compared to wild salmon. They have been successful with this task. Read more ...
