Identification of candidate genes for survival and their use in predicting field performance of Pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas families in coastal waters

Creator:: Lang, Robert Paul
Abstract:: Summer mortality of farmed Pacific oysters causes financial losses for shellfish growers, and selective breeding to improve survival of offspring is a promising way to reduce losses. This dissertation has two objectives to assist the development of tools for use in selective breeding programs. Objective 1: Identify candidate genes for...

Effects of Low-Density Feeding on Elk-Fetus Contact Rates on Wyoming Feedgrounds

Creator:: Creech, Tyler G., Cross, Paul C., Scurlock, Brandon M., Maichak, Eric J., Rogerson, Jared D., Henningsen, John C., and Creel, Scott
Abstract:: High seroprevalance for Brucella abortus among elk on Wyoming feedgrounds suggests that supplemental feeding may influence parasite transmission and disease dynamics by altering the rate at which elk contact infectious materials in their environment. We used proximity loggers and video cameras to estimate rates of elk-to-fetus contact (the primary source...

Biology of the Rex sole, Glyptocephalus zachirus Lockington, in waters off Oregon

Creator:: Hosie, Michael J.
Abstract:: Data are presented on the life history and population dynamics of rex sole (Glyptocephalus zachirus Lockington) collected from Oregon waters between September 1969 and October 1973. Length-weight relationships vary little between sexes or with time of year. Otolith annuli form primarily from January through May and were used for age...

Juvenile coho salmon movement and migration through tide gates

Creator:: Bass, Arthur
Abstract:: Tidal marshlands in the upper estuary ecotone provide essential habitat for juvenile salmonids. In this environment, salmonids grow rapidly and acclimate to saltwater. Worldwide, tidal marshes have been diked and drained to provide agricultural and residential land. Tide gates are one-way doors integrated into dike systems that prevent saltwater flooding...

Evaluating desiccated cyanobacteria Aphanizomenon flos-aquae for use as a biofertilizer on Swiss Chard

Creator:: Turk, Douglas E.
Abstract:: Non-toxic species of desiccated blue-green algae, or cyanobacteria, may offer potential for use as a fertilizer on irrigated crops. Here, the non-toxic cyanobacteria species Aphanizomenon flos-aquae (AFA), collected from Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon, was evaluated for use as a biofertilizer in a controlled experiment on Swiss chard “Bright Lights” (Beta...

Seasonal distribution and habitat selection by the redside shiner, Richardsonius balteatus, in a small Oregon stream

Creator:: Rodnick, Kenneth J.
Abstract:: Seasonal habitat availability, utilization, and selection by young of the year (< 25 mm) and adult (>25 mm) redside shiner, Richardsonius balteatus, were studied for 1 year in sections of Greasy Creek, Benton County, Oregon. Intensive stream mapping procedures and snorkling observations provided most of the quantitative measures for habitat...

eDNA as a tool for identifying freshwater species in sustainable forestry: A critical review and potential future applications

Creator:: Coble, Ashley A., Flinders, Camille A., Homyack, Jessica A., Penaluna, Brooke E., Cronn, Richard C., and Weitemier, Kevin
Abstract:: Environmental DNA (eDNA) is an emerging biological monitoring tool that can aid in assessing the effects of forestry and forest manufacturing activities on biota. Monitoring taxa across broad spatial and temporal scales is necessary to ensure forest management and forest manufacturing activities meet their environmental goals of maintaining biodiversity. Our...

The effects of acclimation and surface access on the resistance of fish to hypoxic stress

Creator:: Wirosoebroto-Hartadi, Retno Widaningroem
Abstract:: Rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) and bluegill (Lepomis macrochirus) were exposed to flows of water containing low DO concentrations produced by bubbling nitrogen through the water. Abrupt exposure of fish to critical DO concentrations (The standard dose response) and by a more gradual changing of DO levels (The "stepdown" approach) were...
