Comparisons of fish assemblages and habitat associations in littoral zones of reservoirs in the Willamette Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Bennett, Paul Michael
Abstract:: The littoral zones of seven reservoirs in the southern Willamette Valley of Oregon were sampled with a boat electroshocker during the summer months of 1995 and 1996. Shoreline substrates were inventoried before sampling sites were randomly selected. Sampling sites consisted of 9 of 12 possible habitat types including four substrate...

Prevalence, geographic distribution, and biology of a dungeness crab, Cancer magister, microsporidian parasite

Creator:: Childers, Richard K.
Abstract:: The microsporidian parasite Nadelspora canceri infects Dungeness crabs, Cancer magister, along the United States Pacific Northwest coast. The prevalence and seasonal variation of N. canceri in Dungeness crabs from Alsea Bay, Oregon, are described based on examination of 2991 crabs collected at monthly intervals from October, 1991 to June, 1993....

Population and behavioral responses of small mammals to silviculture and downed wood treatments in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Waldien, David L.
Abstract:: Forest managers are challenged to provide timber revenues and other resources for society while protecting and enhancing components of biodiversity that are often associated with older forests or older forest structure, such as dead wood. We examined small mammal response to timber harvest in stands 8-10 years following group-selection, two-story,...

Virulence characteristics of infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) in brook trout, Salvelinus fontinalis, fry

Creator:: Maret, Joseph J.
Abstract:: Infectious pancreatic necrosis (IPN) is an acute, contagious disease of trout fry and fingerlings caused by viruses of the family birnaviridae. IPN disease usually results in mortality that is inversely proportional to the age of the fish. While many studies have been carried out to increase our understanding of IPN,...

In vitro host range of aquatic birnaviruses and their relationship to virulence

Creator:: Ögut, Hamdi
Abstract:: Of 109 aquatic birnaviruses (AB) belonging to 9 serogroup A, all replicated and produced rapid and extensive cytopathology in CHSE-214 and RTG-2 cells, whereas only half produced significant levels of cytopathological effect (CPE) in two nonsalmonid cell lines tested (EPC and FHM). In many instances it was found that although...

Transferrin variation and population differentiation in black-tailed deer

Creator:: Chinn, Edwin Kan Kit
Abstract:: Transferrin of Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) displayed two types of polymorphism. One type involved differences in sialic acid content. The nature of the other polymorphism is not known. A hypothesis for three codominant alleles at a common locus was proposed and tested by using the Hardy-Weinberg Principle. The...

Biological and mathematical modeling of dynamics of furunculosis in chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and infectious hematopoietic necrosis (IHN) in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Creator:: Ogut, Hamdi
Abstract:: A series of experiments with Aeromonas salmonicida and infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) were carried out to determine dynamics of the spread of infection in chinook salmon (1.2-1.98g) and rainbow trout (1.2-3.1g). It was found in experiments with A. salmonicida that fish infected by bath immersion became infectious at 4...

Use of range sites by pronghorns in south central Oregon

Creator:: Herrig, Daniel M.
Abstract:: Relative use by pronghorns (Antilocapra americana) of 16 range sites was studied during summer and fall of 1971 and 1972 on Hart Mountain National Antelope Refuge, an area of high desert rangeland in south central Oregon. A Relative Use Index was developed based upon 1533 observations of pronghorns located on...

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...

The effects of nutrition on the zinc sensitivity of Mysidopsis intii

Creator:: Vance, Paul Mitchell
Abstract:: A static-renewal, seven day test was developed and utilized to study the effects of nutrition on the sensitivity of Mysidopsis intii Holmquist to zinc. It was found that juvenile growth was the most reliable and sensitive endpoint that could also reflect the subtle effects of low zinc concentrations and diet...
