Recent decades have seen an increased appreciation for the role infectious diseases can
play in mass mortality events across a diversity of marine taxa. At the same time many …

Infectious diseases are potential contributors to decline in Coho salmon (Oncorhynchus
kisutch) populations. Although pathogens are theoretically considered to pose higher risk in …

Although infectious agents can act as strong population regulators, knowledge of their
spatial distributions in wild Pacific salmon is limited, especially in the marine environment …

Infectious disease dynamics of wild Pacific salmon are poorly understood and may play a
prominent role in recent declines of Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) …

Infectious diseases may contribute to declines in Fraser River Sockeye salmon
(Oncorhynchus nerka) stocks, but a clear knowledge gap exists around which infectious …

Disease-causing infectious agents are natural components of ecosystems and considered a
major selective force driving the evolution of host species. However, knowledge of the …

The role of infectious diseases in the declining productivity of wild Chinook salmon
(Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in BC is poorly understood. In wild populations, it is difficult to …

Rapid expansion of salmon aquaculture has resulted in high-density populations that host
diverse infectious agents, for which surveillance and monitoring are critical to disease …

The greatest concentration of at-risk anadromous salmonids is found in California (USA)—
the populations that have been negatively impacted by the degradation of freshwater …

In some salmonid populations, multiple smolt age classes co-emigrate owing to variation in
the duration of freshwater residence. While it is assumed that smolts prolong freshwater …
