Antibiotic uptake by cultured Atlantic cod leucocytes and effect on intracellular Francisella noatunensis subsp. noatunensis replication
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2014-02-04)The granuloma disease caused by Francisella noatunensis subsp. noatunensis in farmed Atlantic cod has not been successfully treated by use of antibacterials, even when antibacterial resistance testing indicates a sufficient ... -
Atlantic salmon Salmo salar and ballan wrasse Labrus bergylta display different susceptibility to clonal strains of Paramoeba perurans
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2020)Amoebic gill disease (AGD), caused by the marine amoeba Paramoeba perurans, is an important disease of farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L. in Norway. The use of wrasse as cleaner fish in salmon net pens raises questions ... -
Experimental challenge of Atlantic salmon Salmo salar using clones of Paramoeba perurans, P. pemaquidensis and Tetramitus sp.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2021)Salmon gill disease in Norway is in most cases associated with a range of different pathogens, stress and environmental factors. Paramoeba perurans and other amoebae have been isolated during such disease outbreaks. Other ... -
Ichthyobodo hippoglossin. sp. (Kinetoplastea: Prokinetoplastida: Ichthyobodonidae fam. nov.), an ectoparasitic flagellate infecting farmed Atlantic halibut Hippoglossus hippoglossus
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2007-01-18)Diseased Atlantic halibut Hippoglossus hippoglossus juveniles from a hatchery in western Norway showed gill and skin infections with an Ichthyobodo species. Genus Ichthyobodo contains a single valid species, I. necator, ... -
The infection cycle of Marteilia pararefringens in blue mussels, Mytilus edulis, in a heliothermic marine oyster lagoon in Norway.
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2022)Agapollen is a traditional heliothermic marine oyster lagoon in western Norway, representing the northernmost site of any Marteilia sp. protists detected in Europe. The semi-closed lagoon is a unique site to study the life ... -
Modelling sea lice control by lumpfish on Atlantic salmon farms: Interactions with mate limitation, temperature and treatment rules
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Atlantic salmon farming is one of the largest aquaculture sectors in the world. A major impact on farm economics, fish welfare and, potentially, nearby wild salmonid populations, is the sea louse ectoparasite Lepeophtheirus ... -
Prevalence of infectious salmon anaemia virus (ISAV) in wild salmonids in western Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2005-08-09)Studies of infectious salmon anaemia virus (ISAV), an important pathogen of farmed salmon in Norway, Scotland, the Faeroe Islands, Ireland, Canada, the USA and Chile, suggest that natural reservoirs for this virus can be ... -
Sequence variation in four mitochondrial genes of the salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2006-03-02)A total of 210 Lepeophtheirus salmonis collected from 7 locations (Scotland, Russia, Canada, Japan and 3 locations in Norway), were screened for sequence variation in 4 mitochondrial genes; ATPase subunit 6 (A6), Cytochrome ... -
Vibrio tapetis from wrasse used for ectoparasite bio-control in salmon farming: Phylogenetic analysis and serotyping
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017-08-09)So-called ‘cleaner fish’, including various wrasse (Labridae) species, have become increasingly popular in Norwegian salmon farming in recent years for biocontrol of the salmon louse Lepeophtheirus salmonis. Cleaner fish ...
