	abstract = {We have examined the health status of adult Atlantic salmon returning to the rivers As{\textcent}n, Pas-Pisue¤a, Nansa and Deva (Cantabria) during the period 1996-2002. Extreme values of hematocrit, leukocrit, haemoglobin, plasma protein and glucose were detected in some individuals, reflecting their poor health and, in some cases, their depressed immune system. The main pathogens detected in the wild populations include the bacteria  Aeromonas salmonicida, Aeromonas hydrophilla, Yersinia ruckeri  and  Photobacterium damsela e, as well as the opportunistic fungus  Saprolegnia  sp. and the internal marine parasite  Anisaki s. In general, the most depressed salmon populations were those located in the most altered watersheds; these showed in turn the poorest health condition, the highest incidence of infectious diseases, and the greatest extent of pre-spawning mortalities. We begun recently to apply molecular methods for the detection of infectious diseases, based on PCR-amplifica-tion of target pathogenic genomes. The advantages of molecular methods over traditional diagnostic techniques include greater sensitivity and faster results, as well as the possibility to carry out the analysis non-destructively, before there are any clinical symptoms of the disease. Another molecular approach we have recently undertaken is the analysis of genetic variation at the MHC. This may allow us to improve the resistance of salmon to infectious diseases in the future, which should prove useful in captive breeding programmes and in the restoration of wild populations.},

	abstract = {Predation constitutes an important source of juvenile mortality in Atlantic salmon  (Salmo sala r), although it has proved difficult to quantify under natural conditions. Losses due to predation can occur both at the juvenile and adult stages. However, predation on juveniles may be compensated by a reduction in other sources of natural mortality and may not therefore affect the number of returning adults. Although some fish predators are thought to concentrate on juvenile salmon, most predators are in fact opportunistic, exploiting those fish species which are most abundant or readily available. In this study we have reviewed the available information on Atlantic salmon predators in the Iberian Peninsula. We have also analysed in more detail the consumption of juvenile salmon by otters  (Lutra lutra)  and great cormorants ( Phalacrocorax carb o) in Cantabrian rivers, in an attempt to evaluate the effect of predation on endangered salmon populations.},
