Accurate Wound and Lice Detection in Atlantic Salmon Fish Using a Convolutional Neural Network
Fishes, 2022 The population living in the coastal region relies heavily on fish as a food source due to their vast availability and low cost. This need has given rise to fish farming.

Divergent RNA viruses infecting sea lice, major ectoparasites of fish
PLoS Pathogens, 2023 Sea lice, the major ectoparasites of fish, have significant economic impacts on wild and farmed finfish, and have been implicated in the decline of wild salmon populations.

Prime-boost vaccination with chimeric antigens adjuvanted in Montanide™ ISA50 V2 confers protection against experimental Lepeophtheirus salmonis infestation in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) [PDF]
Frontiers in ImmunologyIntroductionSea lice are crustacean ectoparasites affecting Atlantic salmon production worldwide and impediments to industry growth. Chemical treatment has been the method of choice to control infestation with increasing resistance.

Effects of temporal, geographical and environmental factors on salmon lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) levels of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in Ireland [PDF]
Scientific ReportsThe salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) poses a major challenge for Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture in the northern hemisphere. These ectoparasites feed on the blood, tissue, and mucus of their fish host, causing skin damage, increasing ...

Salmon Louse Infestation Impairs the Long‐Term Survival of Sea‐Run Brown Trout [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionAnadromous salmonids, including sea‐run brown trout, are exposed to ectoparasitic salmon lice during their sea migrations. The development of intensive aquaculture in coastal areas has promoted louse epidemics by substantially increasing the number of ...

Parasitology, 2023 Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) is repeatedly exposed to and infected with ectoparasitic salmon lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) both in farms and in nature. However, this is not reflected in laboratory experiments where fish typically are infected only once.

Acclimatisation with lice-infested salmon improves cleaner fish lice consumption
Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2021 Securing the welfare and maximising the lice removal efficacy of ~60 million cleaner fish used each year on salmonid farms is essential to develop a productive and ethical industry with low salmon lice Lepeophtheirus salmonis levels.
