Dynamics of <i>Gyrodactylus salaris</i> infecting individual Atlantic salmon hosts.

Black lines = deterministic model predictions, grey = stochastic simulation runs, black points = published experimental data [26]. Top (a, b) = resistant Atlantic salmon strain, starting with one parasite, a = Leslie matrix model (model 1), b = compartmental model (model 2). Middle (c, d) = susceptible Atlantic salmon strain, starting with one parasite, c = model 1, d = model 2. Bottom (e, f) = susceptible Atlantic salmon strain, starting with five parasites, e = model 1, f = model 2.
