TL;DR: Elevated dietary mineral content during the early SW phase may reduce the prevalence of vertebral deformities in fast growing 0 + salmon smolts, and plasma levels of Ca, P and D-vitamin metabolites recorded in week 8 reflected changes in P homeostasis.

TL;DR: More research is needed to under- stand the interdependency of genetics, development, aging, phosphorus nutrition, temperature and photoperiod, in order to establish the best practice procedures for salmon farming that improve fish welfare.

TL;DR: The data suggest that elevated concentrations of dietary His and/or Fe mitigate cataract formation in Atlantic salmon, and this effect may be related to maintaining vision and feed uptake ability.

TL;DR: Investigation of effects of dietary levels of histidine (His) and iron (Fe) on cataract development in two strains of Atlantic salmon monitored through parr-smolt transformation concluded that histidine supplementation had a positive effect on growth performance and feed conversion ratio, whereas this did not occur when iron was added.

TL;DR: Atlantic salmon reared in freshwater and exposed to three levels of oxygen saturation measured in effluent water had significantly higher body weight than all other groups, with specific growth rate significantly higher than the CO2 groups, suggesting acclimation to elevated CO2.
