Impacts of multispecies parasitism on coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) in Oregon

Creator:: Ferguson, Jayde A.
Abstract:: Diseases caused by parasites are recognized as significant sources of mortality in wild fish populations. I assessed the impacts of multispecies parasitism on a threatened stock of juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch). A crucial prerequisite to this research was proper identification of parasites, which can be difficult for species lacking...

Development and disease of opakapaka (Pristiopomoides filamentosus) larvae in culture

Creator:: Keafer, Briana
Abstract:: Opakapaka (Pristipomoides filamentosus) is a snapper (family Lutjanidae) native to the waters around Hawaii. Recent population declines of this commercially important species have increased interest in the culture of this fish. Survival of this fish through the larval period in culture has been consistently low, usually not exceeding 2%. The...

The role of Salmonella typhimurium type three secretion system (T3SS) and effector proteins in chromatophore cell response.

Creator:: Farhad, Mohammad
Abstract:: Bacterial contamination of food poses a great risk to human health worldwide. A chromatophore cell-based biosensor, utilizing B. splendens erythrophore cells, is an emerging technology that has shown potential to detect bacterial toxicity based on function-dependent mechanisms. Previous studies have investigated the response of erythrophore cells to foodborne pathogens, pesticides,...

The conserved biology of herpesvirus latency : a study in cyprinid herpesvirus 3

Creator:: Reed, Aimee N.
Abstract:: Cyprinid herpesvirus 3 (CyHV-3), commonly known as koi herpesvirus (KHV), is a member of the Alloherpesviridae and is a deadly pathogen for koi and common carp, Cyprinus carpio. It causes severe gill necrosis and nephritis, dermal ulceration and hemorrhage, and mass mortality of up to 100% of affected fish. Fish...

Evaluation of zebrafish (Brachydanio rerio) as a model for carcinogenesis

Creator:: Tsai, Hsi-Wen
Abstract:: Zebrafish (Brachydanio rerio) are small, freshwater teleost fishes in the family Cyprinidae, the true minnows. They are native to the tropical latitudes of India, but have become widespread through their use as aquarium fish and as models for several branches of biological research. Their ease of rearing, short generation time,...

Genetic variation of chlamydial Inc proteins

Creator:: Viratyosin, Wasna
Abstract:: Genomic analysis is a new approach for the characterization and investigation of novel genes, gene clusters, the function of uncharacterized proteins, and genetic diversity in microorganisms. These approaches are important for the study of chlamydiae, a system in which several genomes have been sequenced but in which techniques for genetic...

Population demography, resource use, and movement in cooperatively breeding Micronesian Kingfishers

Creator:: Kesler, Dylan C.
Abstract:: Island systems and species are susceptible to extinction because of their small population size and an ecological naiveté from an evolutionary past lacking strong competition and predation. For example, only one-fifth of the world’s bird species occur on islands, yet more than 90% of the avian extinctions witnessed during historic...

Pseudoloma neurophilia in the Zebrafish (Danio rerio) : Consequences of Infection on Neurobehavioral and Biomedical Research using a Burgeoning Model Organism

Creator:: Spagnoli, Sean
Abstract:: Since its inception as a laboratory animal in the early 1970s, the zebrafish has proven itself a rising star in the world of comparative biomedical sciences due to its short generation time, ease of care, external fertilization, and transparent larvae. In a very few decades, the zebrafish has been utilized...

Characterization of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) induced modification of hepatic pyruvate carboxylase gene expression in C57BL/6J male mice

Creator:: Sparrow, Barney R.
Abstract:: The effects of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) exposure on hepatic pyruvate carboxylase (PC) gene expression were investigated in C57BL/6J Ah[superscipt b/b male mice. A dose-dependent reduction of PC levels and activity occurred in animals given a single intraperitoneal dose of TCDD in a corn oil carrier. The dose ranged from 1 to...
