Hormonal and osmoregulatory aspects of smoltification in coho salmon, Oncorhynchus kisutch

Creator:: Specker, Jennifer Lee
Abstract:: Coho salmon smolts (Oncorhynchus kisutch) were transported at low and high densities. (12 and 120 g/L) for short and long periods (4 and 12 h). Because smolts can be transplanted directly to seawater, half of the fish in each treatment were transported to tanks containing seawater and half to tanks...

Biogeographic and experimental evidence for local scale dispersal limitation in central Panamanian forest birds

Creator:: Moore, Randall Phillips, 1965-
Abstract:: I examined the avian biogeography of the islands of Lago Gatun, Panama, in an effort to better understand the effects of forest fragmentation in this biodiverse region, and specifically to understand the importance of fragment isolation and the mechanism behind its effects on tropical bird distribution. I combined exhaustive surveys...

Home range, dispersal, homing and density of the Townsend mole Scapanus townsendii (Bachman) near Tillamook, Oregon

Creator:: Giger, Richard D.
Abstract:: Home range, dispersal, homing and density of Townsend's mole, Scapanus townsendii (Bachman), were studied during 1964 near Tillamook, Oregon. Additional information on the success of marking and capture techniques and the response of moles to flooding was gathered. This study was initiated to supply information which might aid in the...

Effects of acute stress and exercise on subsequent seawater adaptation and cortisol dynamics in juvenile steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Creator:: Liebert, Anja M.
Abstract:: The present study investigated the effects of stress and exercise on seawater (SW) adaptation and cortisol dynamics in juvenile steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss). To examine the effects of stress, fish acclimated to freshwater (FW) were subjected for 3 hours to confinement stress in FW, and subsequently SW (25 ppt) was introduced...

Big Fishery, Big Data, and Little Crabs: Using a Genomic Approach to Examine Larval Recruitment Patterns of Dungeness Crab (Cancer magister) in the California Current Ecosystem

Creator:: Lee, Elizabeth M. J.
Abstract:: The California Current Ecosystem (CCE) is a dynamic marine ecosystem from which many socioeconomically important fisheries species are harvested. In this thesis, a genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) approach was used to examine genomic variation in an early life stage of the Dungeness crab (Cancer magister), which constitutes the most valuable single-species commercial...

Central control of locomotor activity in juvenile salmonids : the role of corticotropin releasing hormone in the brain

Creator:: Clements, Shaun
Abstract:: The present study investigated the neurocrine and neuroendocrine control of locomotor activity, habitat choice, social behavior, and migratory behavior in juvenile chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha). This was achieved by the manipulation of three neurotransmitter systems; serotonin (5-HT), dopamine (DA), y-amino-n-butyric acid (GABA) and the neuropeptide corticotropin-releasing hormone (CRH). Chemicals were...

The use of molecular biological methods to assess the effects of endocrine disrupting chemicals and natural hormones on growth in the sheepshead minnow (Cyprinodon variegatus)

Creator:: Knoebl, Iris
Abstract:: The work presented in this dissertation examines possible modes of action for growth inhibition by anthropogenic endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) as well as endogenous hormones associated with growth in fish. Using the sheepshead minnow (SHM) (Cyprinodon variegatus) as a model, I developed methods to examine perturbations in the endocrine axis...

Stress induced differential gene expression in the brain of juvenile steelhead trout, (Oncorhynchus Mykiss)

Creator:: Schwindt, Adam R.
Abstract:: Gene expression profiles of tissues and cell-lines can be powerful tools for documenting the genetic response to a particular treatment, such as stressors. However, there is a paucity of information on the genetic stress response in the brain. Therefore, we attempted to profile gene expression in the brain of juvenile...

Ecology of breeding mallards : nest parasitism; brood survival; and habitat utilization

Creator:: Talent, Larry Gene
Abstract:: In 1976 and 1977 I examined three broad problems associated with the recruitment of young mallards, Anas platyrhynchos, in the Prairie Pothole Region of North Dakota. The three problems studied were: the effects of interspecific nest parasitism on production; the chronology and magnitude of total-brood loss during the brood-rearing period;...

Early development of the endocrine system in salmonids : regulation of sex differentiation and ontogeny of the stress response

Creator:: Floyd, Donald J.
Abstract:: Sex steroids, follicle stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH) and gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) were measured in monosex and mixed sex populations of rainbow trout during early development. Steroids declined following fertilization, increased at hatch, then fell and remained constant thereafter. Trends toward differences in steroids between males and females...
