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

Fatty acid and lipid class composition in cutaneous mucus of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar (L.) [PDF]
The surface mucus of fish is a physical and biochemical barrier that plays roles in osmoregulation, chemical communication and protection against physical damage (e.g. by abrasion and ultraviolet radiation), chemical insults (e.g.

Fish are ectotherm, which rely on the external temperature to regulate their internal body temperature, although some may perform partial endothermy. Together with photoperiod, temperature oscillations, contribute to synchronizing the daily and seasonal ...

Lipid correction of hydrogen stable isotope ratios in fish
Abstract Lipids are known to affect stable isotope ratio of organisms, especially δ13C values, and simple arithmetic lipid‐correction procedures have been developed based on the carbon to nitrogen ratio (C : N) that is a proxy for lipid content. Equivalent issues will likely arise with the increasing use of hydrogen isotopes in ecology, but as yet no ...

Atlantic salmon Salmo salar Linnaeus, 1758. The Atlantic salmon is the species which has received by far the most attention by fish biologist in Norway. Also, the publication rate (number of published articles per year) has increased significantly (number or articles per year; linear regression, R 2 = 0.396, slope = 0.37 ± 0.07, P

Phasing of muscle gene expression with fasting-induced recovery growth in Atlantic salmon
Background: Many fish species experience long periods of fasting in nature often associated with seasonal reductions in water temperature and prey availability or spawning migrations. During periods of nutrient restriction, changes in metabolism occur to
