Tracking sea lice : Lepeophtheirus salmonis, between host fish populations using stable carbon and nitrogen isotopes

This study was undertaken to assess the use of carbon and nitrogen stable isotope analyses as methods to identify source host fish populations of sea lice, Lepeophtheirus salmonis. The delta carbon signatures of parasitic copepodid sea lice used to infect cultured Atlantic salmon in the laborator...
