Rate of disappearance of gas bubble trauma signs in juvenile salmonids Rate of disappearance of gas bubble trauma signs in juvenile salmonids
To assess the rate of disappearance of gas bubble trauma (GBT) signs in juvenile salmonids, we exposed spring chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha and steelhead O. mykiss to water containing high levels of dissolved gas supersaturation (DGS) for a time period sufficient to induce signs of GBT, reduced the DGS to minimal levels, and then sampled fish through time to document changes in...

Cloning, in Vitro expression, and novel phylogenetic classification of a channel catfish estrogen receptor Cloning, in Vitro expression, and novel phylogenetic classification of a channel catfish estrogen receptor
We obtained two channel catfish estrogen receptor (ccER) cDNA from liver of female fish using RT–PCR. The two fragments were identical in sequence except that the smaller one had an out-of-frame deletion in the E domain, suggesting the existence of ccER splice variants. The larger fragment was used to screen a cDNA library from liver of a prepubescent female. A cDNA was obtained that...

Evaluation of the protective immunogencity of the N, P, M, NV and G proteins of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus in rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss using DNA vaccines Evaluation of the protective immunogencity of the N, P, M, NV and G proteins of infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus in rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss using DNA vaccines
The protective immunogenicity of the nucleoprotein (N), phosphoprotein (P), matrix protein (M), non-virion protein (NV) and glycoprotein (G) of the rhabdovirus infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) was assessed in rainbow trout using DNA vaccine technology. DNA vaccines were produced by amplifying and cloning the viral genes in the plasmid pCDNA 3.1. The protective immunity...

Effects of ambient water quality on the endangered Lost River sucker in Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon Effects of ambient water quality on the endangered Lost River sucker in Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon
Populations of the Lost River sucker Deltistes luxatus have declined so precipitously in the Upper Klamath Basin of Oregon and California that this fish was recently listed for federal protection as an endangered species. Although Upper Klamath Lake is a major refuge for this species, fish in the lake occasionally experience mass mortalities during summer and early fall. This field study...

Nonlethal gill biopsy does not affect juvenile chinook salmon implanted with radio transmitters Nonlethal gill biopsy does not affect juvenile chinook salmon implanted with radio transmitters
Using gastric and surgical transmitter implantation, we compared radio-tagged juvenile chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha (T(O)) with tagged fish also having a gill biopsy (T(B)) to determine biopsy effects on fish implanted with radio transmitters. We found no evidence during the 21-d period to suggest that a gill biopsy reduced survival, growth, or gross condition of the tagged...

Relative virulence of three isolates of Piscirickettsia salmonis for coho salmon Oncorhynchus kisutch Relative virulence of three isolates of Piscirickettsia salmonis for coho salmon Oncorhynchus kisutch
Piscirickettsia salmonis was first recognized as the cause of mortality among pen-reared coho salmon Oncorhynchus kisutch in Chile. Since the initial isolation of this intracellular Gram-negative bacterium in 1989, similar organisms have been described from several areas of the world, but the associated outbreaks were not reported to be as serious as those that occurred in Chile. To...

Prevalence of Renibacterium salmoninarum in juvenile spring chinook salmon at Columbia and Snake river hatcheries, 1993-1996 Prevalence of Renibacterium salmoninarum in juvenile spring chinook salmon at Columbia and Snake river hatcheries, 1993-1996
We monitored the prevalence and severity of Renibacterium salmoninarum (RS) infections in juvenile hatchery spring chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha at eight Columbia and Snake river hatcheries from 1993 through 1996. This study followed a prior study that monitored RS in the same hatcheries from 1988 through 1992. In the current study, we found that the prevalence of RS-positive...
