This report describes the isolation of a new virus from adult
chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) returning to the Tokushibetsu Hatchery,
Hokkaido, Japan. The agent was isolated in the CHSE-214 cell line
derived from chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha). The virus
replicated in selected fish cell lines incubated between 10 and 20°C...
Chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) were artificially
infected with erythrocytic necrosis virus (ENV) to study
the physiological and hematolgical consequences of ENV-infection.
Infected and control fish were held in
pathogen-free seawater and sampled weekly for five weeks.
Physiological tests included plasma cortisol, glucose,
protein, and osmolality, blood lactic acid, and liver...
Nine isolates of bacteria recovered from fish dying at
marine facilities were collected from different geographic areas.
The strains included: an isolate from chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus
tshawytscha) reared in net pens in New Zealand, an isolate
from chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) held at a laboratory in
Oregon, USA., and seven...
A hierarchical series of studies, based mainly on molecular data, was conducted to elucidate the life history of the Douglas-fir Swiss needle cast pathogen Phaeocryptopus gaeumannii at macro- and micro-evolutionary scales. This information was then utilized to design and evaluate molecular diagnostic tools for use in studies on the epidemiology...
Juvenile English sole (Parophrys vetulus) were
collected in Yaquina Bay, Oregon from January, 1986 to
March, 1987. Recruitment of young-of-the-year sole
occurred from January to June, 1986 and again from
December, 1986 to February, 1987. Emigration from Yaquina
Bay started in September, 1986, but a small portion of the
English...
The hypotheses to be tested in this investigation are: 1) there is a threshold level of liver lipid and glycogen content above which the health condition of hatchery-reared fish is impaired, 2) fatty and high glycogen livers impair liver function and structure, and 3) fatty and high glycogen livers increase...
Traditional interpretations of James Joyce's Dubliners have often focused on the pervasive "paralysis" of the city, covered in the stories' range of "childhood, adolescence, maturity, and public life." However, these approaches have limited their focus on the women in the stories, often spotlighting the male characters--and the author--through a Freudian...
