Genome-scale comparative analysis for host resistance against sea lice between Atlantic salmon and rainbow trout [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 Sea lice (Caligus rogercresseyi) is an ectoparasite which causes major production losses in the salmon aquaculture industry worldwide. Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) are two of the most susceptible salmonid species ...

Time-series clustering of cage-level sea lice data. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 Sea lice Lepeophtheirus salmonis (Krøyer) are a major ectoparasite affecting farmed Atlantic salmon in most major salmon producing regions. Substantial resources are applied to sea lice control and the development of new technologies towards this end ...

Timing and probability of arrival for sea lice dispersing between salmon farms [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2023 Sea lice are a threat to the health of both wild and farmed salmon and an economic burden for salmon farms. With a free-living larval stage, sea lice can disperse tens of kilometres in the ocean between salmon farms, leading to connected sea louse ...

Sea lice infestation level alters salmon swimming depth in sea-cages [PDF]
Aquaculture Environment Interactions, 2016 Host-parasite systems are often characterised by a co-evolutionary arms race, with avoidance behaviour being the first line of defence for hosts. In aquatic ecosystems, the rapid rise of fish farming has elevated host abundance, altering the context of host-parasite interactions.

Lice pressure from salmon farms on wild sea trout (Salmo trutta) in a Norwegian fjord
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2015 Salmon lice Lepeophtheirus salmonis are external parasites on salmonids in the marine environment. However, during recent years, salmon lice abundance has increased due to the presence of salmon farming.

Emamectin Benzoate Treatment of Hybrid Grouper Infected With Sea Lice in Hong Kong [PDF]
Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2021 Sea lice (Copepoda: Caligidae) are ectoparasites which negatively impact marine aquaculture species around the world. There are a limited number of treatments licensed for use against sea lice in tropical and semi-tropical farmed fish species.
