Transmission and Persistence of Ceratomyxa shasta, Transmission and Persistence of Ceratomyxa shasta in Chinook Salmon

Creator:

Wong, Peter, Hurst, Charlene N., Ray, R. Adam, and Bartholomew, Jerri L.

Abstract:

Native to the Pacific Northwest, Ceratomyxashastais a myxosporeanparasite that infects wild and cultivated salmon and has a significance impact on its population in the Klamath River basin. The study suggests that the transmission of mixed genotypes of the parasite are common in Chinook salmon but the age of the fish...

The ecology of parasite interactions within Chinook salmon

Creator:

Hurst, Charlene N.

Abstract:

The within-host interactions that can occur as a result of mixed infections in wildlife likely influence the outcome of an infection. We investigated the infection frequency and outcome as well as the potential mechanisms regulating mixed infections with two Ceratonova shasta genotypes within the Chinook salmon host. Previous research in...

Ceratomyxa shasta-related concerns for reintroduced anadromous salmonids into the Upper Klamath Basin, CA-OR, USA

Creator:

Hurst, Charlene N.

Abstract:

The myxozoan parasite of salmonids, Ceratomyxa shasta, is established throughout the Klamath River, CA-OR, with high parasite densities below the series of dams and above the dams (upper basin) in the northernmost tributary, the Williamson River (WMR). Two objectives were designed to address concerns about C. shasta effects on reintroduced...
