    • Identification of critical enzymes in the salmon louse chitin synthesis pathway as revealed by RNA interference-mediated abrogation of infectivity 

      Braden, Laura; Michaud, Dylan; Igboeli, Okechukwu O.; Dondrup, Michael; Hamre, Lars Are; Dalvin, Sussie; Purcell, Sara; Kongshaug, Heidi; Eichner, Christiane; Nilsen, Frank; Fast, Mark D. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)
      Treatment of infestation by the ectoparasite Lepeophtheirus salmonis relies on a small number of chemotherapeutant treatments that currently meet with limited success. Drugs targeting chitin synthesis have been largely ...

    • Roles of three putative salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) prostaglandin E2synthases in physiology and host–parasite interactions 

      Dalvin, Sussie; Eichner, Christiane; Dondrup, Michael; Øvergård, Aina-Cathrine (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) is a parasite of salmonid fish. Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) exhibit only a limited and ineffective immune response when infested with this parasite. Prostaglandins (PGs) have ...

    • The salmon louse genome: Copepod features and parasitic adaptations 

      Skern-Mauritzen, Rasmus; Malde, Ketil; Eichner, Christiane; Dondrup, Michael; Furmanek, Tomasz; Besnier, Francois; Komisarczuk, Anna Zofia; Nuhn, Michael; Dalvin, Sussie; Edvardsen, Rolf Brudvik; Klages, Sven; Huettel, Bruno; Stueber, Kurt; Grotmol, Sindre; Karlsbakk, Egil Erlingsson; Kersey, Paul; Leong, Jong S; Glover, Kevin Alan; Reinhardt, Richard; Lien, Sigbjørn; Jonassen, Inge; Koop, Ben F; Nilsen, Frank (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      Copepods encompass numerous ecological roles including parasites, detrivores and phytoplankton grazers. Nonetheless, copepod genome assemblies remain scarce. Lepeophtheirus salmonis is an economically and ecologically ...
