Infections by Renibacterium salmoninarum and Nanophyetus salmincola Chapin are associated with reduced growth of juvenile Chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha (Walbaum), in the Northeast Pacific Ocean

Creator:

Sandell, T. A., Teel, D. J., Fisher, J., Beckman, B., and Jacobson, K. C.

Abstract:

We examined 1454 juvenile Chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha (Walbaum), captured in nearshore waters off the coasts of Washington and Oregon (USA) from 1999 to 2004 for infection by Renibacterium salmoninarum, Nanophyetus salmincola Chapin and skin metacercariae. The prevalence and intensities for each of these infections were established for both yearling...

Growth and condition of juvenile coho salmon Oncorhynchus kisutch relate positively to species richness of trophically transmitted parasites

Creator:

Losee, J. P., Fisher, J., Teel, D. J., Baldwin, R. E., Marcogliese, D. J., and Jacobson, K. C.

Abstract:

The aims of this study were first, to test the hypothesis that metrics of fish growth and condition relate positively to parasite species richness (S[subscript R]) in a salmonid host; second, to identify whether S[subscript R] differs as a function of host origin; third, to identify whether acquisition of parasites...
