Habitat selection of hatchery and wild juvenile salmonids in Eagle Creek Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Brignon, William R.
Abstract:: To best manage Eagle Creek National Fish Hatchery and minimize any negative impacts that the current hatchery program may be having on Endangered Species Act-listed salmonids in the Eagle Creek Basin, I determined if wild fish are being displaced from preferred habitats by hatchery salmonids Oncorhynchus spp. This thesis had...

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...

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...

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...

Physiological ecology of juvenile Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) rearing in fluctuating salinity environments

Creator:: Hackmann, Crystal R.
Abstract:: Estuaries provide juvenile salmonids with highly productive feeding grounds, refugia from tidal fluctuations and predators, and acclimation areas for smoltification. However, these dynamic, fluctuating salinity environments may also be physiologically stressful to growing juvenile fish. In order to evaluate the costs and benefits of estuarine marshes to juvenile Chinook salmon,...

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...

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...

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...

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...

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...
