The effects of single and multiple pathogen and parasite infections on juvenile chinook and coho salmon during early marine residency

Creator:

Sandell, Todd A.

Abstract:

Nearly 3000 juvenile Chinook (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and coho (O. kisutch) salmon captured in nearshore waters off the coasts of Washington and Oregon from 1999-2004 were tested for infection by Renibacterium salmoninarum, Nanophyetus salmincola, and skin metacercariae. First, three quantitative PCR primer/probe sets were compared for detection of R. salmoninarum; amplification...

Distribution and coinfection of microparasites and macroparasites in juvenile salmonids in three upper Willamette River tributaries

Creator:

Roon, Sean Robert

Abstract:

Wild fish populations are typically infected with a variety of micro- and macroparasites that may affect fitness and survival, however, there is little published information on parasite distribution in wild juvenile salmonids in three upper tributaries of the Willamette River, OR. The objectives of this survey were to document (1)...
