The ability of Gyrodactylus salaris , an important pathogen of the Atlantic salmon Salmo salar , in Norway, to infect anadromous and resident stocks of the Arctic charr, Salvelinus alpinus , has been examined in the laboratory. Resident charr (Korssjoen stock) exposed to heavily infected salmon, wer...
