POSTDOCTORAL PROJECT:
QUANTESCAPE : A HAVBRUK Knowledge Platform
Quantifying genetic effects of Escaped farmed salmon on wild salmon. QuantEscape is a research project studying the genetic interaction between wild and farmed salmon, documenting how escapes from aquaculture facilities affect wild salmon populations. I’m employed in work package 2: Quantification of natural selection and its strength to “naturalize” farmed salmon - How do farmed salmon respond to natural selection, and potentially adapt to the natural environment? In order to answer this question, a series of common-garden experiments will be conducted under hatchery and semi-natural conditions using farmed and farmed x wild hybrid salmon that have survived for a generation in the wild.
Work package manager: Kevin A. Glover (IMR). Project manager: Kjetil Hindar, Norwegian Institute for Nature Research (NINA). Research partners: Norwegian Institute for Nature Research (NINA), the Institute of Marine Research (IMR), the Norwegian Institute of Food, Fisheries and Aquaculture Research (Nofima) and the Centre for Integrative Genetics (CIGENE).
PhD PROJECT:
INTERACT : A Strategic Institute Program (2010-2014)
Farmed escaped salmon represent a significant threat to the genetic integrity of wild populations. Each year, thousands of farmed salmon escape into the wild, and some of these are observed on the spawning grounds - ready to introgress with wild populations. This Norwegian research council funded project aims to delineate and quantify genetic differences between wild and farmed salmon and cod, including work packages on modelling. This includes 2x PhD students and 1x post Dr Researcher. Project manager Dr. Kevin Glover.
