Description
Summary:Aquaculture production of salmonids involves a wide range of species and rearing techniques across multiple continents. The family Salmonidae is comprised of more than 25 species, but the production in European countries is mainly concerned with Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Smaller production of brown trout (sea trout) (Salmo trutta), grayling (Thymallus thymallus) and whitefish (Coregonus spp.) are primarily directed toward restocking programs in which fry or smolts are released into natural water bodies for restoration purposes. This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 634429 (ParaFishControl). T
