The spatial distribution of infectious agents in wild Pacific salmon along the British Columbia coast

Abstract 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. Characterizing pathogen distributions during early marine residence, a period considered a survival bottlenec...
