Cyclic hypoxia exposure accelerates the progression of amoebic gill disease
Oldham, Tina Marie Wier; Dempster, Tim; Crosbie, Phil; Adams, Mark; Nowak, Barbara (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Amoebic gill disease (AGD), caused by the amoeba Neoparamoeba perurans, has led to considerable economic losses in every major Atlantic salmon producing country, and is increasing in frequency. The most serious infections ... -
Depth distribution of the amoebic gill disease agent, Neoparamoeba perurans, in salmon sea-cages
Wright, Daniel W.; Nowak, Barbara; Oppedal, Frode; Bridle, Andrew; Dempster, Timothy David (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015-07-16)Identifying where and when parasites occur in farming environments is vital to understand transmission dynamics and develop preventative measures that reduce host-parasite encounters. A major parasite concern for Atlantic ... -
Free-living Neoparamoeba perurans depth distribution is mostly uniform in salmon cages, but reshaped by stratification and potentially extreme fish crowding
Wright, Daniel William; Nowak, Barbara; Oppedal, Frode; Bridle, Andrew; Dempster, Timothy David (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)Understanding the spatio-temporal positioning of hosts and their parasites in free-living states is useful in devising methods to diminish parasite encounters in animal production systems. We explored the potential for ...
