  • The ecology of parasite interactions within Chinook salmon

    Creator:
    Hurst, Charlene N.
    Abstract:
    The within-host interactions that can occur as a result of mixed infections in wildlife likely influence the outcome of an infection. We investigated the infection frequency and outcome as well as the potential mechanisms regulating mixed infections with two Ceratonova shasta genotypes within the Chinook salmon host. Previous research in...

  • Characterization of interferon and retroposon-like repetitive elements in salmonid fish

    Creator:
    Tengelsen, Leslie A.
    Abstract:
    Hatchery-reared salmonid fish routinely encounter stress due to handling, barging, tagging, and overcrowding. It has been demonstrated that there exists a direct correlation between stress and transient immune suppression which can last for many days in fish. Epizootic viral infections routinely appear in hatcheries and can have a devastating effect...

  • Comparative Genomics of Freshwater Bloom-Forming Cyanobacteria and Associated Organisms

    Creator:
    Driscoll, Connor B.
    Abstract:
    The advent of improved DNA sequencing technologies has allowed the analysis of various microbial communities. Bloom-forming freshwater cyanobacteria can produce toxins and taste-and-odor compounds that can negatively affect drinking water supplies. Here, I have employed second- and third-generation sequencing technologies to characterize bloom-forming freshwater cyanobacterial genomes and their associated heterotrophic...
