The effectiveness of hyposaline treatments against host-attached salmon lice. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2019
AbstractUnderstanding how salinity affects marine parasites is vital to understanding their ecology and treatment, particularly for host-parasite systems that traverse marine and freshwater realms such as the globally important Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) system.

Sampling planktonic salmon lice in Norwegian fjords [PDF]

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2019
Risk of mortality of wild salmon caused by salmon lice is used as an index for managing aquaculture production in Norway and is based on monitoring of lice attached to wild salmonids and modelled concentrations of lice larvae in fjords.

Identifying salmon lice transmission characteristics between Faroese salmon farms [PDF]

Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2018
Sea lice infestations are an increasing challenge in the ever-growing salmon aquaculture sector and cause large economic losses. The high salmon production in a small area creates a perfect habitat for parasites.

Relationship of farm salmon, sea lice, and wild salmon populations [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2010
Increased farm salmon production has heightened concerns about the association between disease on farm and wild fish. The controversy is particularly evident in the Broughton Archipelago of Western Canada, where a high prevalence of sea lice (ectoparasitic copepods) was first reported on juvenile wild pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha) in 2001 ...

Acoustic Delicing of Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar): Fish Welfare and Salmon Lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) Dynamics [PDF]

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
Acoustic lice treatment (AcuLice) is a newly developed system, which uses a composite acoustic sound image with low-frequency sound to remove salmon lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) from Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar).

Dispersion of salmon lice in the Hardangerfjord [PDF]

Marine Biology Research, 2013
AbstractThe abundance of salmon lice in the Hardangerfjord is potentially large enough to be a threat to the wild fish stocks of the fjord. The salmon louse spends a period of 2–4 weeks in its planktonic stages drifting in the current of the upper water masses of the fjord looking for suitable hosts on which to settle.

Sea lice, Lepeophtheirus salmonis (Krøyer 1837), infected Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) are more susceptible to infectious salmon anemia virus

PLoS ONE, 2019
The role of parasitic sea lice (Siphonostomatoida; Caligidae), especially Lepeophtheirus salmonis, in the epidemiology of Infectious Salmon Anemia Virus (ISAv) has long been suspected.

Keratinocytes drive the epithelial hyperplasia key to sea lice resistance in coho salmon [PDF]

BMC Biology
Background Salmonid species have followed markedly divergent evolutionary trajectories in their interactions with sea lice. While sea lice parasitism poses significant economic, environmental, and animal welfare challenges for Atlantic salmon (Salmo ...

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

Evolutionary Applications
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 ...

Principles and Methods of Counteracting Harmful Salmon–Arthropod Interactions in Salmon Farming: Addressing Possibilities, Limitations, and Future Options

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The arthropod salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) is a major threat to Atlantic salmon aquaculture and wild salmonids. Essentially like in monoculture, very high concentrations of susceptible hosts may result in high reproduction and severe production
