Abstract
The current study strongly indicates that increased catalase expression and subsequent enhanced catalase activity is a mechanism for H2O2 resistance in salmon lice. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first possible H2O2 resistance mechanism described in arthropods. Molecular screening methods can be developed on this basis.
