Overview

Malcolm Jobling is affiliated with the University of Tromsø - The Arctic University of Norway. Their research focuses primarily on areas within Agricultural and Biological Sciences as well as Biochemistry, Genetics and Molecular Biology.

The scientist has investigated multiple topics including:

  • Aquaculture Nutrition and Growth
  • Reproductive biology and impacts on aquatic species
  • Fish Ecology and Management Studies
  • Aquaculture disease management and microbiota

Within subfields, their work spans Aquatic Science, Physiology, Nature and Landscape Conservation, and Immunology.

Malcolm Jobling has contributed to the literature with several recent papers, notably:

  • Digestive tract morphology and enzyme activities of juvenile diploid and triploid Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) fed fishmeal-based diets with or without fish protein hydrolysates, 2021, PLoS ONE
  • Dietary effects on biomarkers of growth, stress, and welfare of diploid and triploid Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) during parr-smolt transformation, 2022, Aquaculture Reports
  • Hepatic Expression of Growth Hormone Receptor (Ghrec) and Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I (Igf-I) Genes and Cellular Location of Igf-I Mrna in Diploid and Triploid Atlantic Salmon (Salmo Salar) Undergoing Parr-Smolt Transformation, 2025, SSRN Electronic Journal

These publications demonstrate a focus on the physiology and nutrition of Atlantic salmon, including aspects related to growth performance, enzyme activity, and gene expression during critical developmental stages.

Frequent publication venues for Jobling's work include:

  • PLoS ONE
  • Aquaculture Reports
  • SSRN Electronic Journal

Their work has involved collaboration with several co-authors, most notably:

  • Stefano Peruzzi
  • Martina Bortoletti
  • Lisa Maccatrozzo
  • Giuseppe Radaelli
  • Daniela Bertotto
