The efficacy of emamectin benzoate against infestations of Lepeophtheirus salmonis on farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L) in Scotland, 2002-2006 [PDF]
Infestations of the parasitic copepod Lepeophtheirus salmonis, commonly referred to as sea lice, represent a major challenge to commercial salmon aquaculture. Dependence on a limited number of theraputants to control such infestations has led to concerns

Use of a mathematical model to describe the epidemiology of Lepeophtheirus salmonis on farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar in the Hardangerfjord, Norway [PDF]
Infestation patterns of the sea louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis from 44 salmon farms in the Hardangerfjord on the south-west coast of Norway over the period 2004 to 2007 were assimilated to create 20-month production cycle profiles for spring and autumn ...

Predicting the abundance of Lepeophtheirus salmonis in the Bay of Fundy, New Brunswick. [PDF]
Abstract Objective The primary objective was to construct a time series model for the abundance of the adult female (AF) sea lice Lepeophtheirus salmonis in Atlantic Salmon Salmo salar farms in the Bay of Fundy, New Brunswick, Canada, for the period 2016–2021 and to illustrate its short-term ...

Changes in epidemiological patterns of sea lice infestation on farmed Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., in Scotland between 1996 and 2006 [PDF]
Analyses of a unique database containing sea lice records over an 11 year period provide evidence of changing infestation patterns in Scotland. The data, collected from more than 50 commercial Atlantic salmon farms, indicate that both species of sea lice

The salmon louse genome may be much larger than sequencing suggests
The genome size of organisms impacts their evolution and biology and is often assumed to be characteristic of a species. Here we present the first published estimates of genome size of the ecologically and economically important ectoparasite ...

Microbial communities associated with the parasitic copepod Lepeophtheirus salmonis [PDF]
Abstract Lepeophtheirus salmonis is a naturally occurring marine parasite of salmonid fishes in the Northern hemisphere, and a major problem in salmonid aquaculture. In addition to the direct effects on host fish, L. salmonis may act as a vector for diseases. Here, the microbial community of L.
