Experiments to test if allopatric Salvelinus alpinus are suitable year‐round hosts of Gyrodactylus salaris (Monogenea)
There has been an increased focus on Salvelinus alpinus as a potential long‐term host to Gyrodactylus salaris and, here, both susceptibility to G. salaris and ability to sustain a parasite population seasonally, was tested using fry and parr of S. alpinus from the River Skibotnelva, northern Norway....
