  • Molecular Systematics of Gadid Fishes: Implications for the Biogeographic Origins of Pacific Species
    Color profile: Disabled Composite Default screen 19 Molecular systematics of gadid fishes: implications for the biogeographic origins of Pacific species Steven M. Carr, David S. Kivlichan, Pierre Pepin, and Dorothy C. Crutcher Abstract: Phylogenetic relationships among 14 species of gadid fishes were investigated with portions of two mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) genes, a 401 base pair (bp) segment of the cytochrome b gene, and a 495 bp segment of the cytochrome oxidase I gene. The molecular data indicate that the three species of gadids endemic to the Pacific Basin represent simultaneous invasions by separate phylogenetic lineages. The Alaskan or walleye pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) is about as closely related to the Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) as is the Pacific cod (Gadus macrocephalus), which suggests that T. chalcogramma and G. macrocephalus represent separate invasions of the Pacific Basin. The Pacific tomcod (Microgadus proximus) is more closely related to the Barents Sea navaga (Eleginus navaga) than to the congeneric Atlantic tomcod (Microgadus tomcod), which suggests that the Pacific species is derived from the Eleginus lineage and that Eleginus should be synonymized with Microgadus. Molecular divergences between each of the three endemic Pacific species and their respective closest relatives are similar and consistent with contemporaneous speciation events following the reopening of the Bering Strait ca. 3.0–3.5 million years BP. In contrast, the Greenland cod (Gadus ogac) and the Pacific cod have essentially identical mtDNA sequences; differences between them are less than those found within G. morhua. The Greenland cod appears to represent a contemporary northward and eastward range extension of the Pacific cod, and should be synonymized with it as G.

McDowell Aquaculture and Fisheries Program, Department of Medicine, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of California, Davis, California 95616, USA ABSTRACT: The antibiotic Fumagillin DCH was found to be effective in controlling experimental infections with PKX, the myxosporean that causes proliferative kidney disease (PKD) in salmonid fish. Following 6 or 7 wk of treatment, experimentally infected chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha showed no evidence of PKX cells, or of the renal inflammation characteristic of PKD, on withdrawal of the treatment and tor up to 7 wk afterwards. In contrast, 90 to 100 % of fish (in 2 experiments) that were injected with PKX, but not glven the antibiotic, had numerous PKX cells in the kidney and developed clinical PKD. This is the first report of an effective orally administered drug for the control of a myxozoan infection in salmonid fish.

  • Portraits with Pollock
    FOREWORD The Department of the Interior's Bureau of Commercial Fisheries and th e dom es­ tic fishing industry, especiall y that part of the industry lo cated in New England, recommend pollock, an excellent sea food- nutritious, flavorful and sati s fying­ a delicious substitute for haddock. Pollock is available in great numbers in the co ld waters of the North Atlantic but is a relatively unused food resource. They are more difficult to catch th an haddock, but haddock have experienced spawning failures during the past 5 years. The famous Georges Bank haddock populations are extremely low. The United States and 13 other nations and their fishing fleets are cooperating in a program to rehabilitate the haddock resource. International annual catch quotas have been imposed and fishing for haddock in certain areas is prohibited during the spawnin g season. This program will continue at least through 1972. With little or no h addock on the market, fishing efforts are now co ncentrated on pollock, a close relative of both the haddock and cod.

  • Pollachius Virens
    MARINE ECOLOGY PROGRESS SERIES Published October 5 Mar Ecol Prog Ser Use of rocky intertidal habitats by juvenile pollock Pollachius virens Robert W. Rangeley*, Donald L. Kramer Department of Biology, McGill University, 1205 Docteur Penfield Avenue, Montreal, Quebec, Canada H3A 1B1 ABSTRACT: We ~nvestigatedpatterns of distribution and foraging by young-of-the-year pollock Pol- lachius virens in the rocky intertidal zone. Pollock were sampled by beach seine in fucoid macroalgae and in open habitats at all stages of the tide, day and night throughout the summer. Their presence in shallow water at the high tidal stages indicated that at least part of the pollock population migrated across the full width of the intertidal zone (150 m) each tide. Densities in shallow water were much higher at low than at high tidal stages suggesting that a large influx of pollock moved in from the sub- tidal zone at low tidal stages and then dispersed into intertidal habitats at high tidal stages. There were few differences in pollock densit~esbetween algal and open habitats but abundances likely increased in the algal habitat at higher tidal stages when changes in habitat availability are taken Into account. Densities were higher at night and there was an order of magnitude decline in pollock densities from early to late summer. In another study we showed that piscivorous birds are a probable cause of pollock summer mortality. Pollock fed on invertebrates from intertidal algae relatively continuously. The tidal migrations of juvenile pollock observed in this study and their use of macroalgae as a foraging and possibly a refuging habitat strongly suggests that the rocky intertidal zone may be an important fish nursery area.
