A modeling study of the impact of treatment policies on the evolution of resistance in sea lice on salmon farms [PDF]
Salmonid aquaculture is an important source of nutritious food with more than 2 million tonnes of fish produced each year. In most salmon producing countries, sea lice represent a major barrier to the sustainability of salmonid aquaculture. This issue is
