The paper develops an SNP panel for genetic stock identification in Teno River Atlantic salmon, showing comparable performance to microsatellites with benefits in cost, speed, and robustness.

This study identifies a genomic region linked to both exploration behavior and age at maturity in Atlantic salmon, suggesting a co-adapted trait complex.

The paper investigates the association between life-history loci and morphological traits in Atlantic salmon, finding complex relationships that may result from pleiotropy or linkage.

This study investigates how diet and the vgll3 gene affect maturation in female Atlantic salmon, finding genetic and environmental interactions influence age at maturity.

This study examines how genetic variation in vgll3 affects maturation age in Atlantic salmon, showing sex- and context-dependent expression patterns and interactions with other genes.

This study identifies genetic and molecular mechanisms in Atlantic salmon brains associated with early maturation, linking the Hippo pathway to reproductive timing.

The paper identifies vgll3 as the primary gene influencing maturation timing in Atlantic salmon by analyzing SNP variation in a region containing vgll3 and akap11 using natural recombination events.

This study examines sex-specific lipid differences in Atlantic salmon juveniles, finding males have higher concentrations of several lipid classes than females.

This study identifies 15,483 high-confidence structural variants in 492 Atlantic salmon genomes, revealing their role in population structure, functional impact, and domestication traits.

The paper examines gene expression patterns of age-at-maturity-associated genes in Atlantic salmon to identify molecular mechanisms regulating maturation timing.

This study identifies a genetic correlation between sea age at maturity and iteroparity in Atlantic salmon, showing a dominance architecture around the vgll3 gene and its impact on survival and growth.

The paper identifies a sex-dependent dominance locus, VGLL3, that maintains variation in age at maturity in Atlantic salmon by reducing intralocus sexual conflict.

The paper identifies low genetic differentiation in Atlantic salmon sub-populations and links it to distinct life history strategies and adaptive divergence.
