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.

Acclimatisation with lice-infested salmon improves cleaner fish lice consumption [PDF]

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.

Shining a light on parasite behaviour: daily patterns of Argulus fish lice. [PDF]

Parasitology, 2021
AbstractParasites display a wide range of behaviours that are frequently overlooked in favour of host responses. Understanding these behaviours can improve parasite control through a more precise application or development of new behaviour-based strategies.

Modelling salmon lice-induced mortality of wild salmon post-smolts is highly sensitive to calibration data

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2022
Salmon lice from fish farms in open net pens pose a threat to the survival of wild salmon post-smolts migrating through areas with high farm and lice densities.

Sea lice prevention strategies affect cleaner fish delousing efficacy in commercial Atlantic salmon sea cages [PDF]

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2020
Over the last 2 decades, cleaner fishes have been employed to remove external sea lice parasites from Atlantic salmon Salmo salar in sea cages. Norway, Scotland, Ireland, and the Faroe Islands combined now use ~60 million cleaner fish per year.

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 Immunology
IntroductionSea 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 Reports
The 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 ...

Use of lumpfish for sea-lice control in salmon farming: challenges and opportunities [PDF]

Marine Policy, 2017
Efficient sea-lice control remains one of the most important challenges for the salmon farming industry. The use of wrasse (Labridae) as cleaner fish offers an alternative to medicines for sea-lice control, but wrasse tend to become inactive in winter ...
