Environmental drivers of Atlantic salmon behaviour in sea-cages: a review
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-02-03)Salmon may sense and respond to a range of environmental variables within sea-cages, including light, temperature, salinity, dissolved oxygen, water currents and certain chemical treatments used during production. Environments ... -
Individual fish tank arrays in studies of Lepeophtheirus salmonis and lice loss variability
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-11-03)In studies of the salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis (Krøyer, 1837), experimental design is complicated by a highly variable and unpredictable lice loss among common experimental tanks and a substantial rate of host ... -
Paranucleospora theridion (Microsporidia) infection dynamics in farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar put to sea in spring and autumn
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012-10-10)The microsporidian Paranucleospora theridion (syn. Desmozoon lepeophtheirii) is a parasite of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar and also a hyperparasite of the salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis. The parasite develops 2 types ... -
Population dynamics of salmon lice Lepeophtheirus salmonis on Atlantic salmon and sea trout
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2005-04-13)The salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis is a common ectoparasite of both farmed and wild salmonids in the marine environment, and can have a significant negative effect on the survival and growth of its host. To facilitate ... -
Population genetic structure of the parasitic copepod Lepeophtheirus salmonis throughout the Atlantic
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2011-04-12)The parasitic copepod Lepeophtheirus salmonis is responsible for huge economic losses in the salmonid aquaculture industry, and has been linked with declines of wild salmonid populations. In order to elucidate population ... -
Sequence variation in four mitochondrial genes of the salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2006-03-02)A total of 210 Lepeophtheirus salmonis collected from 7 locations (Scotland, Russia, Canada, Japan and 3 locations in Norway), were screened for sequence variation in 4 mitochondrial genes; ATPase subunit 6 (A6), Cytochrome ... -
Toxicological assessment of the anti-salmon lice drug diflubenzuron on Atlantic cod Gadus morhua
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2013-07-09)Increasing use of the chitin synthesis inhibitor diflubenzuron against the ectoparasitic salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis in marine aquaculture has raised concerns over its environmental impacts. This study evaluated ...
