It's a transgenic fish, the first genetically engineered animal under review for the U.S. food supply. Embedded in every cell of its body are genes from the Chinook salmon and the ocean pout fish ...

AquaBounty produced the fish by altering Atlantic salmon with genetic material from Chinook salmon and Ocean Pout.

"Breeding from those lines, in 2016 we were on generation number 12 … The AquAdvantage Salmon is an Atlantic salmon. It just carries the genes from the Chinook and the ocean pout." ...

As demand grows for seafood, the business of fish farming is growing. Companies are raising and harvesting salmon on land, sparking pushback over sustainability and genetic engineering. Science ...

The pout's promoter gene basically makes sure the Chinook growth gene never gets shut off. Voila: a mega-fish. So why did AquAdvantage take so long getting to market?

On a side note, while the sea bass were in a feeding frenzy for most of the weekend, the congo eels, or ocean pout were also out and being a nuisance. While never a popular fish, the more ...
