Effect of marine Eubothrium sp. (Cestoda: Pseudophyllidea) on the growth of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L.
Atlantic Salmon, Salmo salar L., experimentally infected with marine Eubothrium sp. were kept together with uninfected salmon in the laboratory for 11 months in two tanks, 80 infected and 80 uninfected in each tank. The infected fish had a reduced growth rate compared with the uninfected fish. Signi...

Atlantic Salmon, Salmo salar L., experimentally infected with marine Eubothrium sp. were kept together with uninfected salmon in the laboratory for 11 months in two tanks, 80 infected and 80 uninfected in each tank. The infected fish had a reduced growth rate compared with the uninfected fish. Significant differences in growth between infected and uninfected fish were not observed until several months post‐infection. There was no correlation between the number of Eubothrium sp. and fish weight, indicating that even low intensity alters the growth rate of the salmon. The cestode had the same effect on both sexes of salmon. Haematocrit level was found to be significantly lower in infected compared with uninfected salmon in one of the samples during the experiment. |
