Immune responses of juvenile chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) to p,p-̓DDE and tributyltin

Creator:: Misumi, Ichiro
Abstract:: In this thesis, we examined the effects of the exposures to anthropogenic pollutants on the fish, primarily juvenile chinook salmon, immune system using newly and recently developed immune assays. In addition, we developed a new assay for measuring immunocompetence of fish. In the first chapter, the Alamar Blue assay was...

Effects of atrazine on olfactory-mediated behaviors in Pacific lamprey (Entosphenus tridentatus)

Creator:: Smith, April G.
Abstract:: Pacific lamprey (Entosphenus tridentatus) are experiencing population declines throughout their range. Xenobiotics could be an important risk factor for lamprey populations. Our goal was to establish if common herbicides, as used in forest management, could affect reproductive fitness. We determined that atrazine was a likely compound of greatest concern to...

Effects of o,p'-DDE on the immune system of juvenile chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha)

Creator:: Milston, Ruth Helen
Abstract:: Environmental factors such as chemical contamination can have immunomodulatory effects on the immune response of fish and may be contributing to the decline in salmonid populations by augmenting disease susceptibility. Xenobiotics can interfere with the immune system at several levels of complexity, and different immune cells and processes have variable...

Pacific lamprey Entosphenus tridentatus : integrating traditional ecological knowledge and contemporary values into conservation planning, and stream substrate associations with larval abundance in the Willamette River Basin, Oregon, U.S.A.

Creator:: Sheoships, Gabe
Abstract:: Pacific lamprey Entosphenus tridentatus is a valuable icon and traditional food source for Indigenous people of western North America. Native Americans have utilized traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) since time immemorial to guide their ways of life, transmitting cultural values and natural history to further generational knowledge. Pacific lamprey are in...

Evolution and risk in conservation of Pacific salmon

Creator:: Currens, Kenneth P.
Abstract:: Identifying appropriate units for conservation requires knowledge of evolutionary patterns and risks of managing at different geographical and genetic scales. I examined genetic diversity at different geographical scales among 11,400 rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) from 243 locations in 13 major river basins throughout much of their range and among coho...

The effects of electroshock on immune function and disease progression in juvenile spring chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha)

Creator:: VanderKooi, Scott P.
Abstract:: Electrofishing is a sampling tool commonly used by fisheries researchers. While much is known about the effects of electroshock on fish physiology, consequences to the immune system and disease progression have not received attention. To understand the effects of electroshock on immune function we undertook a comparison of electroshock and...

Survival and behavior of juvenile steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in two small estuaries in Oregon

Creator:: Romer, Jeremy D.
Abstract:: A number of steelhead (Oncorhynchus mykiss) populations are at risk throughout Oregon, including five populations that are federally listed as threatened or endangered. However, little is known about behavior and survival of these fish as they transition from freshwater to seawater. We investigated whether estuarine survival varies on a temporal...

Interrenal and metabolic responses to stress and their modifying factors in juvenile salmonid fishes

Creator:: Barton, Bruce Alexander
Abstract:: Genetic, ontogenetic, and environmental factors modified characteristic interrenal and glycemic responses to stress in juvenile salmonid fishes. During continuous confinement stress, plasma cortisol rose more quickly in chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, acclimated to high rather than medium or low temperatures; hyperglycemia following either acute or chronic stress was also highest...
