• Future directions in breeding for disease resistance in aquaculture species (2017, background): “Aquaculture species are particularly amenable to this structure due to the possibility of obtaining high numbers of full siblings and other close relatives of the selection candidates for testing (Gjedrem and Baranski, 2009).”
• Fish to 2030: The Role and Opportunity for Aquaculture (2015, background): “Though about 97 percent of the world salmon production is currently based on improved stock (Gjedrem and Baranski 2009), the salmon industry has been maintaining a strong research and development effort.”
• Recent advances of genome mapping and marker‐assisted selection in aquaculture (2013, background): “Until now, selective breeding has been conducted for over 60 fish and shellfish species (Gjedrem and Baranski 2009).”
• Mass selection for survival and resistance to OsHV-1 infection in Crassostrea gigas spat in field conditions: response to selection after four generations (2015, methodology): “This selection method relies on high fecundity in the shellfish, enabling the use of a higher selection intensity compared to that used for terrestrial livestock (Gjedrem and Baranski, 2009).”
• Advances by Selective Breeding for Aquatic Species: A Review (2014, background): “A QTL has been found which explains more than80% of the genetic variation for IPN resistance in Atlantic salmon [44] [45].”
• Widespread genetic introgression of escaped farmed Atlantic salmon in wild salmon populations (2016, background): “The breeding program has successfully changed the genetics of farmed Atlantic salmon to improve commercially important traits, such as growth, utilization of feed, and filet quality (Thodesen et al., 1999; Gjedrem and Baranski, 2009; Solberg et al., 2013).”
• Searching for Solutions in Aquaculture: Charting a Sustainable Course (2012, unknown): “Feed conversion ratios in salmon decreased by 20% over five generations in breeding programs focused on growth rate (172).”
