The potential for cleaner fish‐driven evolution in the salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis: Genetic or environmental control of pigmentation?

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
The parasitic salmon louse represents one of the biggest challenges to environmentally sustainable salmonid aquaculture across the globe. This species also displays a high evolutionary potential, as demonstrated by its rapid development of resistance to ...

The Interactive Effects of the Anti-Sea Lice Pesticide Azamethiphos and Temperature on Oxidative Damage and Antioxidant Responses in the Oyster Ostrea chilensis [PDF]

open access: yesAntioxidants (Basel)
Azamethiphos is used in the salmon industry to treat sea lice and is subsequently discharged into the sea, which may affect non-target species (NTS). A rise in seawater temperature could enhance the sensitivity of NTS. Thus, in the present investigation,

Candidate genes for monitoring hydrogen peroxide resistance in the salmon louse, Lepeophtheirus salmonis

open access: yesParasites & Vectors, 2020
Background Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is one of the delousing agents used to control sea lice infestations in salmonid aquaculture. However, some Lepeophtheirus salmonis populations have developed resistance towards H2O2.

Small, charged proteins in salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) secretions modulate Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) immune responses and coagulation

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Little is known about glandular proteins secreted from the skin- and blood-feeding ectoparasite salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis). The labial gland has ducts extending into the oral cavity of the lice, and the present study aimed to identify novel ...

Prioritized imputed sequence variants from multi-population GWAS improve prediction accuracy for sea lice count in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2023
Sea lice infestation is one of the major fish health problems during the grow-out phase in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) aquaculture. In this study, we integrated different genomic approaches, including whole-genome sequencing (WGS), genotype imputation ...

The use of prevalence as a measure of lice burden: a case study of Lepeophtheirus salmonis on Scottish Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., farms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
This study investigates the benefits of using prevalence as a summary measure of sea lice infestation on farmed Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L. Aspects such as sampling effort, the relationship between abundance and prevalence arising from the negative ...

Sea lice escape predation on their host [PDF]

open access: yesBiology Letters, 2008
Parasites seldom have predators but often fall victim to those of their hosts. How parasites respond to host predation can have important consequences for both hosts and parasites, though empirical investigations are rare. The exposure of wild juvenile salmon to sea lice (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) from salmon farms allowed us to study a novel ecological

A gap analysis on modelling of sea lice infection pressure from salmonid farms: (I) A structured knowledge review

open access: yesAquaculture Environment Interactions, 2023
: Sustainability of aquaculture, an important component of the blue economy, relies in part on ensuring assessment of environmental impact and interactions relating to sea lice dispersing from open pen salmon and trout farms.

A gap analysis on modelling of sea lice infection pressure from salmonid farms. II. Identifying and ranking knowledge gaps – output of an international workshop

open access: yesAquaculture Environment Interactions, 2023
: Sea lice are a major health hazard for farmed Atlantic salmon in Europe, and their impact is felt globally. Given the breadth of ongoing research in sea lice dispersal and population modelling, and focus on research-led adaptive management, we brought ...

Modeling salmon lice effects on sea trout population dynamics using an individual-based approach

open access: yesAquaculture Environment Interactions, 2021
Salmon lice Lepeophtheirus salmonis infestation of sea trout Salmo trutta results in both additional marine mortality and behavioral changes which may contribute to sea trout population decline.
