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 ...

Keratinocytes drive the epithelial hyperplasia key to sea lice resistance in coho salmon [PDF]
BMC Biology, 2023 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 ...

Exploring Sea Lice Vaccines against Early Stages of Infestation in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) [PDF]
Vaccines, 2022 The sea louse Caligus rogercresseyi genome has opened the opportunity to apply the reverse vaccinology strategy for identifying antigens with potential effects on lice development and its application in sea lice control.

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.

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 ...

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 ...

Sea lice infestation dataset for wild and farmed salmon populations on the Pacific coast of Canada (2001–2023) [PDF]
Scientific DataMonitoring sea lice infestation levels on populations of farmed and wild salmonids is critical to the development of evidence-based policy designed to mitigate the risk these ectoparasites represent to wild juvenile salmon and the on-going sustainability

The Cost of Lice: Quantifying the Impacts of Parasitic Sea Lice on Farmed Salmon
Marine Resource Economics, 2017 AbstractDiseases are an important challenge in aquaculture. However, most of what is known about the effect of diseases comes from laboratory experiments. Using a farm-level data set containing sea lice infestation counts for all Norwegian salmon farms over an 84-month period, we empirically investigate the biological and economic impacts of observed ...

Gene Expression Response to Sea Lice in Atlantic Salmon Skin: RNA Sequencing Comparison Between Resistant and Susceptible Animals. [PDF]
Front Genet, 2018 Sea lice are parasitic copepods that cause large economic losses to salmon aquaculture worldwide. Frequent chemotherapeutic treatments are typically required to control this parasite, and alternative measures such as breeding for improved host resistance
