Gene co-expression networks identify novel candidate genes for moulting and development in the Atlantic salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis)

Zhaoran Zhou, Christiane Eichner, Frank Nilsen, Inge Jonassen, Michael Dondrup

The paper identifies novel candidate genes for moulting and development in the salmon louse using gene co-expression networks and validates them via RNA interference.

The salmon louse genome: copepod features and parasitic adaptations.

Rasmus Skern‐Mauritzen, Ketil Malde, Christiane Eichner, Michael Dondrup, Tomasz Furmanek, François Besnier, Anna Z. Komisarczuk, Michael Nuhn, Sussie T. Dalvin, Rolf B. Edvardsen, Sven Klages, Bruno Hüettel, Kurt Stueber, Sindre Grotmol, Egil Karlsbakk, , Frank Nilsen

The paper presents the genome of Lepeophtheirus salmonis, revealing copepod-specific features and parasitic adaptations, including gene expression shifts and loss of peroxisomes.

Host gill attachment enables blood-feeding by the salmon louse (Lepeophtheirus salmonis) chalimus larvae and alters parasite development and transcriptome

Erna Irene Heggland, Michael Dondrup, Frank Nilsen, Christiane Eichner

The paper investigates how blood-feeding by salmon lice affects their development and transcriptome, finding gene expression changes associated with different feeding stages and locations.
