Project description:Recirculation systems (RAS), which reduce water consumption and improve pathogen control are increasingly used in Atlantic salmon aquaculture. Performance and adaptation of fish to new farming environment is actively investigated. Here, responses to crowding stress were compared in salmon reared in two systems (RAS with brackish water and flowthrough with full salinity water) at low and high density.
Project description:Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a common bacterium in the terminal plumbing system of buildings and it is from this niche that a substantial fraction of infections are acquired. To better understand P. aeruginosa biology in this environment, we examined the transcriptomes in tap water and pond water.
