    Creator:
    Rush, Lani

  • Development of mucosal vaccines for avian influenza A virus composed of recombinant Lactococcus lactis and Streptococcus gordonii

    Creator:
    Reese, Kaleb A.
    Abstract:
    Novel mucosal vaccines (LL-M2e, LL-HAe, SG-HAe) were constructed from live, non-pathogenic Lactococcus lactis or Streptococcus gordonii that express conserved regions of HA or M2 antigens from avian influenza virus (AIV) A. All three vaccines evoked antigen-specific serum immunoglobulin G (IgG) responses in vaccinated chickens. The addition of the adjuvant cholera...

  • Seasonal life history of Oncorhynchus mykiss in the South Fork John Day River Basin, Oregon

    Creator:
    Tattam, Ian A.
    Abstract:
    Understanding seasonal changes in growth, survival, and movement rates is crucial to salmonid management. These life history characteristics provide a context for evaluation of management actions. We evaluated the life history of individually marked Oncorhynchus mykiss gairdneri in the South Fork John Day River basin in Northeastern Oregon. This thesis...

  • Juvenile coho salmon movement, growth and survival in a coastal basin of southern Oregon

    Creator:
    Weybright, Adam D. and Giannico, Guillermo R.
    Abstract:
    Juvenile salmonids display highly variable spatial and temporal patterns of early dispersal that are influenced by density-dependent and density-independent factors. Although juvenile coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) movement patterns in streams and their relationship with body mass and growth have been examined in previous studies, most observations were limited to one...
