The Regulation of Puberty and Maturation in Cod
FSH and LH are two important hormones which regulate the processes of puberty and maturation. These hormones are secreted by the pituitary gland and are transported in the blood to the genitalia, where they regulate maturation....

Wild-Caught Cod – the Juveniles of the Future in Cod Farming
During earlier trials involving wild cod in captivity, scientists at Nofima have experienced problems getting the cod to eat pellet feed. Nofima, in collaboration with the Institute of Marine Research and SINTEF Fisheries and Aquaculture, has now demonstrated...

Temperature Effect on Spleen Transcriptome Response to Intraperitoneal Viral Mimic Injection in Cod
This report by Tiago S Hor et al, Memorial University of Newfoundland, looks at how a moderate increase in ambient temperature modulates the Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) spleen transcriptome response to intraperitoneal viral mimic injection....

Link Between Carbon Dioxide and Blindness in Cod Explored
Based on extensive studies carried out in the last five years, University of Maine Ph.D. student Kevin Neves and the University of Maine’s Center for Cooperative Aquaculture Research (CCAR) Director Nick Brown have determined that cod living at high...

How Fresh is Fresh? Perceptions, Experience When Buying, Consuming Fresh Cod
Most of us do not buy fresh fish that was caught more than three days ago. But if we do not know the date of capture, we are devouring fish that is often far older, says Nofima Scientist Jens Østli, and colleagues, who invited over 400 fishing customers...

Polar and Atlantic Cod Share Habitat, not Diet
Despite Atlantic cod and haddock extending further into Arctic waters, a new study reveals there is little competition for food between the invaders and native polar cod. However, it is uncertain whether climate change will increase competition between...

Climate Warming May Enhance Polar Cod Survival
Researchers have demonstrated that hatching in polar cod can begin as early as January in Arctic seas that receive large freshwater input, compared to April-July in seas with little freshwater input. Since early hatching leads to higher survival rates,...

“Healthy” Farmed Cod Undergo Extensive Pathological Changes
Doctoral research carried out by Mona Gjessing from the Norwegian School of Veterinary Science shows that pathological changes in cod differ from those found in diseased salmon, and cod that appear clinically healthy can nevertheless be affected by extensive...

Reducing Salt In Already Desalted Cod
A team of researchers from the Universitat Politècnica de València’s CUINA group has achieved a 50 per cent reduction in the amount of salt in already desalted cod, thus obtaining a final product that preserves all its sensory properties and is particularly...

Cod Fillet – Fresh & Nematode-Free
Nofima scientist Agnar Sivertsen has developed a new system for automatic inspection of cod fillets known as hyperspectral imaging. As well as detecting unwanted elements, the system can provide information about how fresh the fish is. ...

Combating Cod Fraud In Europe
Higher public awareness of sustainable fishing practices, led by environmental NGOs, may have helped reduce the incidence of mislabelled fish in the UK, compared to Ireland, according to a recent study which assessed levels of fish fraudulently sold as...

Reducing Cod By-Catch In Norwegian Lobster Fisheries
Researchers from DTU Aqua have decoded the behaviour of Norway lobsters and cod and used the results to develop a selective trawl. This so-called SELTRA-trawl ensures that fewer cod end up as by-catch in the Norway lobster fishery in the Kattegat. ...

Cod Mislabelling Disguises Cheaper Fish Products
Less expensive fish species are being labelled and sold as cod in Ireland, while the environmental impact of purchases is being concealed by product labels, according to a study published in the journal Fish and Fisheries. ...

Cod Behaviour Around Shipwrecks Revealed
Adult cod seem to have the entire ocean at their disposal, and yet each individual cod still chooses ‘their own’ local shipwreck, which they swim back to faithfully day after day. This is just one of the fascinating results from research using acoustic...
