Sea‐louse parasites on juvenile wild salmon in the Broughton Archipelago, British Columbia, Canada
Abstract The global expansion of aquaculture has changed the structure of fish populations in coastal environments, with implications for disease dynamics. In Pacific Canada, farmed salmon act as reservoir hosts for parasites and pathogens, including sea lice ( Lepeophtheirus salmonis and Caligus cl...
