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

open access: yesProceedings 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 ...

Bath Treatments With Emamectin Benzoate Control Dactylogyrideans Infecting Colossoma macropomum Gills Without Altering Physiology of This Host Fish

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Intensification of fish aquaculture worldwide has led to severe problems of diseases caused by parasitic dactylogyrideans. In this study, the anti‐dactylogyridean efficacy of treating Colossoma macropomum with baths of emamectin benzoate (EMB) was investigated for the first time, along with the effects of this treatment on the haematology and ...

Making the best of lousy circumstances: the impact of salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis on depth preference of sea trout Salmo trutta

open access: yesAquaculture Environment Interactions, 2020
Sea trout are known for seeking out sources of freshwater to rid themselves of salmon lice. However, the effect of natural haloclines in fjords on parasite dynamics is not well understood.

Monitoring parasitic abundance in cage-based aquaculture : the effects of clustering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Most discussions of sampling protocols within the literature on monitoring aquatic parasites are based on the assumptions of simple random sampling. There has been a growing recognition within the fields of human and terrestrial veterinary epidemiology ...

Lack of Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) Susceptibility to the Infectious Salmon Anaemia Virus (ISAV) Using In Vivo Challenges

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Infectious salmon anaemia virus (ISAV) can cause disease and mortality in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar). The virus is endemic in several regions including the Atlantic coast of Canada. Lumpfish (Cyclopterus lumpus) are increasingly utilised as cleaner fish to control sea lice levels in Atlantic salmon farms.

First Strike: Description of the Events at the First Salmon Farm Affected by the 2025 Algal Bloom in Northern Norway

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are a threat to fish welfare, occurring suddenly and unexpectedly causing significant consequences for fish and salmon farmers worldwide. Norwegian farmers have been facing this challenge at irregular intervals since the very beginning of the industry. This report describes the events on the first fish farm affected

Using agent-based modelling to predict the role of wild refugia in the evolution of resistance of sea lice to chemotherapeutants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
A major challenge for Atlantic salmon farming in the northern hemisphere is infestation by the sea louse parasite Lepeophtheirus salmonis. The most frequent method of controlling these sea louse infestations is through the use of chemical treatments ...

Sea Lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) Harbour Putative Fish Pathogens: Insights From Illumina and Nanopore Sequencing

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ectoparasites that penetrate host skin can act as biological or mechanical vectors for pathogens and, in some cases, serve as reservoirs. Crustacean ectoparasites of fish are potential vectors of pathogens, which is especially relevant for obligate pathogens (e.g., Aeromonas salmonicida) with limited seawater survival. Sea lice (Lepeophtheirus
