Abstract:Salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) poses significant risks to both wild and farmed salmon populations. Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar) are highly susceptible to the parasite, while Pacific salmon species such as Pink (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha), Coho (Oncorhynchus kisutch), and Chum (Oncorhynchus keta) salmon exhibit varying levels of resistance. This study explored L. salmonis infestation dynamics in four salmonid species (Atlantic, Pink, Coho, and Chum Salmon) across three challenge trials using the same fish… Show more
