Artificial reproduction and status of stock for pacific salmon
Artificial reproduction of pacific salmon in the Russian Far East, as a rule, is carried out with gross violations of scientific recommendations. Perhaps, that’s why positive and negative effects of the salmon farming largely neutralize each other.

Salmon lice in the Pacific Ocean show evidence of evolved resistance to parasiticide treatment
Parasitic salmon lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) threaten the economic and ecological sustainability of salmon farming, and their evolved resistance to treatment with emamectin benzoate (EMB) has been a major problem for salmon farming in the Atlantic ...
