Endocrine regulation of final oocyte maturation and sex differentiation in salmonids

Creator:: Fitzpatrick, Martin S.
Abstract:: Sexual maturation and sex differentiation comprise facets of a common theme: reproduction. The endocrine system regulates many of the critical physiological processes necessary for reproduction and offers a framework within which technologies can be developed for controlling sexual maturation and sex differentiation. The studies described in this thesis were undertaken...

Gene expression in the liver of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, during the stress response

Creator:: Momoda, Tracey S.
Abstract:: The extent to which responses to stress are maladaptive or adaptive to the long-term survival of fish remains to be better understood. The aim of this study was to identify differentially expressed genes in the livers of rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, responding to an experimental stressor. Gene expression responses were...

Distribution and movements of Chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, returning to the Yukon River basin

Creator:: Eiler, John H.
Abstract:: Chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, returning to the Yukon River basin and other large river systems in western Alaska have declined dramatically since the late 1990s. This continuing trend has raised concerns over the future status of the returns, and severely impacted commercial and subsistence fisheries within the drainage. Management is...

Capture-related stressors impair sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria, immune system function

Creator:: Lupes, Sarah C.
Abstract:: Sablefish, Anoplopoma fimbria, is a valuable North Pacific Ocean species caught in several commercial fisheries and is often discarded due to size or catch limits. Managers must account for the mortality of discarded fish to assess fish populations and harvest impacts, yet discard mortality rates of specific fisheries are generally...

A macroscopic to microscopic study of the effects of barotrauma and the potential for long-term survival in Pacific rockfish

Creator:: Pribyl, Alena L.
Abstract:: Depleted species of rockfish (Sebastes spp.) from the Northeast Pacific experience high discard mortality due to "barotrauma," induced from the rapid change in pressure during capture. Research suggests rockfish have the potential to survive barotrauma if immediately recompressed, but the potential for long-term recovery is unknown. In this project, we...

Ecological influence of bacterial kidney disease on juvenile spring chinook salmon : effects on predator avoidance ability, smoltification, and physiological responses to stress

Creator:: Mesa, Matthew G.
Abstract:: Juvenile chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) were experimentally infected with Renibacterium salmoninarum (Rs), the causative agent of bacterial kidney disease (BKD), to investigate the effects of BKD on three aspects of juvenile salmonid performance: (1) predator avoidance ability; (2) smoltification; and (3) physiological responses to stress. For these experiments, fish with...

Influences of environmental acidification on salmonid reproduction

Creator:: Weiner, Gary S.
Abstract:: Reproduction of salmonid fishes in acidic water was studied using the rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri). Adult trout were exposed to various levels of hydrogen ion (pH levels 4.5, 5.0, 5.5, and control [6.5 to 7.1]) during the final 6 weeks of reproductive maturation. Reduced survival rates of the progeny of...

Effects of steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) on chinook salmon (O. tshawytscha) behavior and physiology

Creator:: Kelsey, Denise A.
Abstract:: Three experiments were designed to determine if and how steelhead trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, may affect chinook salmon, O. tshawytscha, when they are confined together as in a raceway or on a barge. We observed groups of chinook and steelhead together and groups of only chinook in a behavioral experiment to...

Development of a progeny marker for steelhead

Creator:: Shippentower, Gene E.
Abstract:: This study was undertaken to determine if strontium chloride could be used to create a trans-generational otolith mark in steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss). I completed two strontium injection trials and a survey of juvenile steelhead from various steelhead hatcheries. The two trials measured Sr:Ca ratios in otoliths in response to injections...

The Impact of Parasitic Copepod Salmincola Californiensis on Swimming Ability & Oxidative Burst Activity in Response to Stress in Juvenile Chinook Salmon

Creator:: Herron-Seeley, Crystal L.
Abstract:: Juvenile Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) have a finite amount of energy that they can use to move from their riverine habitat to their oceanic habitat. Fish in the Willamette River Basin are prevented from moving to the ocean easily by dams which create reservoirs, where they reside for up to...
