Evidence that coded-wire-tagging procedures can enhance transmission of Renibacterium salmoninarum in chinook salmon Evidence that coded-wire-tagging procedures can enhance transmission of Renibacterium salmoninarum in chinook salmon
Binary coded wire tags (CWTs) are used extensively for identification and management of anadromous salmonid populations. A study of bacterial kidney disease (BKD) in two brood year groups of hatchery-reared spring chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha provided strong evidence that horizontal transmission of Renibacterium salmoninarum, the causative agent of BKD, might be enhanced by...

Translational and fluctuating asymmetry as tools to detect stress in stress-adapted and nonadapted plants Translational and fluctuating asymmetry as tools to detect stress in stress-adapted and nonadapted plants
Plants having experienced previous exposure to a stress are expected to be more resistant to further stress than those not having been exposed. While the assessment of stress in plants is a difficult task, particularly for stress-adapted plants, developmental instability has proven a useful tool for assessing stress in organisms. We examined the effect of water availability on...

Behavioral thermoregulation by juvenile spring and fall chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, during smoltification Behavioral thermoregulation by juvenile spring and fall chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, during smoltification
Fall chinook salmon evolved to emigrate during the summer months. The shift in the temperature preference we observed in smolting fall chinook but not spring chinook salmon may reflect a phylogenetic adaptation to summer emigration by (1) providing directional orientation as fall chinook salmon move into the marine environment, (2) maintaining optimal gill function during emigration and...

Fungal symbiosis from mutualism to parasitism: who controls the outcome, host or invader? Fungal symbiosis from mutualism to parasitism: who controls the outcome, host or invader?
Plant symbiotic fungi are generally thought to express a single lifestyle that might increase (mutualism), decrease (parasitism), or have no influence (commensalism) on host fitness. However, data are presented here demonstrating that plant pathogenic Colletotrichum species are able to asymptomatically colonize plants and express nonpathogenic lifestyles. Experiments were conducted in...

The effects of Myxobolus cerebralis, myxospore dose on triactinomyxon production and biology of Tubifex tubifex from two geographic regions The effects of Myxobolus cerebralis, myxospore dose on triactinomyxon production and biology of Tubifex tubifex from two geographic regions
The aquatic oligochaete Tubifex tubifex is an obligate host of Myxobolus cerebralis, the causative agent of salmonid whirling disease. Tubifex tubifex can become infected by ingesting myxospores ofM. cerebralis that have been released into sediments upon death and decomposition of infected salmonids. Infected worms release triactinomyxons into the water column that then infect salmonids...

Protection of rainbow trout against infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus four days after specific or semi-specific DNA vaccination Protection of rainbow trout against infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus four days after specific or semi-specific DNA vaccination
A DNA vaccine against a fish rhabdovirus, infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV), was shown to provide significant protection as soon as 4 d after intramuscular vaccination in 2 g rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) held at 15°C. Nearly complete protection was also observed at later time points (7, 14, and 28 d) using a standardized waterborne challenge model. In a test of the...
