Evidence for the Evolution of Resistance to Non-Chemical Parasite Controls: Salmon Lice From Submerged Cages Produce Larvae That Swim Deeper. [PDF]

Evol Appl
ABSTRACT Salmon lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) pose a major challenge to the sustainability of salmon aquaculture due to their capacity to rapidly evolve resistance to parasite control methods. As the effectiveness of chemical treatments has declined, the industry has increasingly relied on preventive strategies to limit initial infections.

Modelling the Effectiveness of Gene-Edited Salmon at Sea Lice Control and the Use of Refugia to Mitigate Counter-Adaptation. [PDF]

Evol Appl
ABSTRACT Advances in gene‐editing technologies offer opportunities to improve disease management in aquaculture. Gene‐editing applications for farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) include harnessing innate parasite resistance to protect against salmon lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis).

Head lice in Norwegian households: actions taken, costs and knowledge. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
INTRODUCTION: Head lice infestations cause distress in many families. A well-founded strategy to reduce head lice prevalence must shorten the infectious period of individual hosts.

Head lice surveillance on a deregulated OTC-sales market: a study using web query data. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
The head louse, Pediculus humanus capitis, is an obligate ectoparasite that causes infestations of humans. Studies have demonstrated a correlation between sales figures for over-the-counter (OTC) treatment products and the number of humans with head lice.
