Aquaculture-driven evolution: distribution of pyrethroid resistance in the salmon louse throughout the North Atlantic in the years 2000–2017
Fjørtoft, Helene Børretzen; Nilsen, Frank; Besnier, Francois; Espedal, Per Gunnar; Stene, Anne; Tveten, Ann-Kristin; Bjørn, Pål Arne; Aspehaug, Vidar; Glover, Kevin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)The parasitic salmon louse, and its documented resistance to chemotherapeutants, represents the most persistent environmental challenge to global salmonid aquaculture. We used a genetic marker associated with pyrethroid ... -
Extent and ecological importance of escape through spawning in sea-cages for Atlantic cod
Uglem, Ingebrigt; Knutsen, Øyvind; Kjesbu, Olav Sigurd; Hansen, Øyvind J; Mork, Jarle; Bjørn, Pål Arne; Varne, Rebekka; Nilsen, Rune; Ellingsen, Ingrid H.; Dempster, Timothy David (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2012)The culture of certain fish species to sizes at which they can reproduce has led to the escape of fertilised eggs or ‘escape through spawning’. To investigate the extent and ecological importance of spawning in sea-cages ... -
Losing the 'arms race': Multiresistant salmon lice are dispersed throughout the North Atlantic Ocean
Fjørtoft, Helene Børretzen; Nilsen, Frank; Besnier, Francois; Stene, Anne; Tveten, Ann-Kristin; Bjørn, Pål Arne; Aspehaug, Vidar Teis; Glover, Kevin Alan (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Nothing lasts forever, including the effect of chemicals aimed to control pests in food production. As old pesticides have been compromised by emerging resistance, new ones have been introduced and turned the odds back in ... -
Salmon lice sampled from wild Atlantic salmon and sea trout throughout Norway display high frequencies of the genotype Associated with pyrethroid resistance
Fjørtoft, Helene Børretzen; Nilsen, Frank; Besnier, Francois; Stene, Anne; Bjørn, Pål Arne; Tveten, Ann-Kristin; Aspehaug, Vidar Teis; Finstad, Bengt; Glover, Kevin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Atlantic salmon Salmo salar aquaculture is based on the use of open-pen sea cages, with the consequence that farmed fish are both recipients and sources of pathogens from surrounding waters. Currently, the parasitic salmon ... -
The Phe362Tyr mutation conveying resistance to organophosphates occurs in high frequencies in salmon lice collected from wild salmon and trout
Fjørtoft, Helene Børretzen; Besnier, Francois; Stene, Anne; Nilsen, Frank; Bjørn, Pål Arne; Tveten, Ann-Kristin; Finstad, Bengt; Aspehaug, Vidar; Glover, Kevin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The parasitic salmon louse, and its resistance to chemical delousing agents, represents one of the largest challenges to the salmon aquaculture industry. We genotyped lice sampled from wild salmon and sea trout throughout ... -
Timing is everything: Survival of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar postsmolts during events of high salmon lice densities
Bøhn, Thomas; Gjelland, Karl Øystein; Serra Llinares, Rosa Maria; Finstad, Bengt; Primicerio, Raul; Nilsen, Rune; Karlsen, Ørjan; Sandvik, Anne Dagrun; Skilbrei, Ove Tommy; Elvik, Kristine Marit Schrøder; Skaala, Øystein; Bjørn, Pål Arne (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020)Atlantic salmon in aquaculture act as reservoir hosts and vectors of parasites like salmon lice and this parasite is shown to harm wild salmonid populations. In this study, n = 29,817 tagged Atlantic salmon were studied ...
