The copepod parasite (Lepeophtheirus salmonis (Kroyer), Caligus elongatus Nordmann) interactions between wild and farmed Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) and wild sea trout (Salmo trutta L.) a mini-review
Ectoparasitic copepods are major pathogens of farm and wild salmonids throughout the North Atlantic. Since the early 1990s there has been controversy regarding the extent to which infective larvae of Lepeophtheirus salmonis originate from aquaculture sites and impact wild salmon ( Salmo salar ) and...
