The objective of the current study was to determine the extent to which planktonic sea lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis Krøyer, 1838 and Caligus elongatus Nordmann, 1832) were present in the biofouling on open-sea net pens used for commercial rearing of ...

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

The vast Lake Baikal in Siberia is located in a region with a continental climate, implying pronounced seasonal temperature differences. Remarkably, reproducing during the extremely cold winters when the lake is covered by a thick ice layer is a common trait in Baikal's endemic littoral amphipods.

One Health: parasites and beyond [PDF]
The field of parasitism is broad, encompassing relationships between organisms where one benefits at the expense of another. Traditionally the discipline focuses on eukaryotes, with the study of bacteria and viruses complementary but distinct ...

ABSTRACT Dispersal impacts individual fitness and influences local dynamics, stability and adaptation in interconnected populations. Anadromous salmonid fishes are renowned for their precise homing and adaptations to local aquatic environments, while navigating between multiple connected habitats.

ABSTRACT Salovirus is a genus within the family Caliciviridae, which contains a single member species, Salovirus nordlandense, also known as Atlantic salmon calicivirus (ASCV). While previous work has shown that ASCV can replicate in fish cell lines and establish systemic infection in vivo, its exact role in disease remains unclear and very little is ...

A model for sea lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) dynamics in a seasonally changing environment
Sea lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) are a significant source of monetary losses on salmon farms. Sea lice exhibit temperature-dependent development rates and salinity-dependent mortality, but to date no deterministic models have incorporated these ...

The effects of salinity and temperature on the development and survival of fish parasites [PDF]
In brackish water the variety of marine and freshwater parasite species is considerably reduced. The distribution in brackish water of most marine endoparasites is restricted by the salinity tolerance of their hosts, most of the parasite species are more
