A model of the process of spillover and adaption leading to potential emergence of disease in salmon held with cleaner fish used to control lice
2017-04-01
Abstract excerpt
Sea lice control is a very important issue for sustainable salmon aquaculture, and cleaner fish (largely wrasse and lumpfish) are increasingly used as a key tool for this control. Such fish can carry pathogens, which they can potentially spread to the salmon. A modelling approach is used to help guide practice on cleaner fish use. The model simulates transmission of pathogens within and between cleaner fish and sa...
