Fish welfare in a changing world: New developments and current challenges

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract The welfare of non‐human animals is central to ethical discussions on animal use, with increasing attention to fish welfare across research, aquaria, aquaculture, and fisheries. This paper reviews current theoretical approaches to animal welfare and recent advances in defining and assessing fish welfare since the seminal paper by Huntingford ...

Genetic composition of facultatively anadromous brown trout Salmo trutta L. in a freshwater‐lake system

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Brown trout (Salmo trutta) has adapted to a wide range of habitats and displays a variety of life‐history strategies. Being facultatively anadromous, populations without migration barriers to the sea consist of both resident and anadromous individuals in different proportions.

Sea louse infection of juvenile sockeye salmon in relation to marine salmon farms on Canada's west coast.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
BackgroundPathogens are growing threats to wildlife. The rapid growth of marine salmon farms over the past two decades has increased host abundance for pathogenic sea lice in coastal waters, and wild juvenile salmon swimming past farms are frequently ...

A review of the biology and genetics of sea lice [PDF]

open access: yesICES Journal of Marine Science, 2006
Abstract Studies of the biology of sea lice have been conducted from various perspectives for two decades. For Lepeophtheirus spp., most of the published literature has centred on the economically important Lepeophtheirus salmonis, while for Caligus spp., research has focused on a wider range of species.

A Review of Nonsteroidal Anti‐Inflammatory Drugs for Food‐Producing Animals With a Focus on Potential Applications for Farmed Finfish

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In finfish aquaculture, there are several inflammatory diseases impacting productivity and animal welfare, however there are limited options available to veterinarians to treat inflammation and pain in fish. Nonsteroidal anti‐inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are widely used in terrestrial animals raised for human consumption to treat a range of ...

Vaccination Reduces Shedding of Salmonid Alphavirus Subtype 3, but Bacterial Co‐Infection Influences the Effect

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Waterborne horizontal transmission of viral diseases in fish relies on the release of infectious virus particles (termed shedding) into the aquatic environment. Both the rate and duration of shedding are critical for efficient viral spread, making interventions that reduce shedding valuable for disease control.

Salmon lice sampled from wild Atlantic salmon and sea trout throughout Norway display high frequencies of the genotype associated with pyrethroid resistance

open access: yesAquaculture Environment Interactions, 2019
Atlantic salmon Salmo salar aquaculture is based on the use of open-pen sea cages, with the consequence that farmed fish are both recipients and sources of pathogens from surrounding waters.

Ocular Manifestations of Infectious Salmon Anaemia Virus Infection in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar)

open access: yesJournal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Eyes are essential sensory organs needed by teleost Atlantic salmon for high visual acuity and survival in both the wild and in aquaculture settings. In this work, we assessed the ocular manifestations of Infectious Salmon Anaemia Virus (ISAV) infection in Atlantic salmon by a cohabitation‐mediated infection assay and histological and ...

Salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis predominates over Caligus elongatus on Atlantic salmon post-smolts in central and western Norway

open access: yesAquaculture Environment Interactions
Atlantic salmon Salmo salar are exposed to parasitic sea lice as they enter the marine environment, particularly in areas with high densities of open net-pen salmon farming, where infestations can reach harmful levels.
