ZooKeys 1055: 135–148. https://doi.org/10.3897/zookeys.1055.70117 Abstract To investigate the genetic effects on the population of Coreius guichenoti of dam constructions in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, we analyzed the genetic diversity and population structure of 12 popula- tions collected in 2009 and 2019 using mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control regions. There was no significant difference in genetic diversity between 2009 and 2019P ( > 0.05), but the population structure tended to become stronger. Genetic differentiation (FST) among five populations (LX, BB, YB, SF and JA) collected in 2009 was not significant P( > 0.05). However, some populations collected in 2019 were significantly differentiated (P < 0.05), indicating that the population structure has undergone change.

    HELFORD RIVER SURVEY A survey of the Pisces (Fish) of the Helford Estuary A Report to the Helford Voluntary Marine Conservation Area Group funded by the World Wide Fund for Nature U.K. and English Nature P A Gainey 1999 1 Summary The Helford Voluntary Marine Conservation Area (hereafter HVMCA) was designated in 1987 and since that time a series of surveys have been carried out to examine the flora and fauna present. In this study no less that eighty species of fish have been identified within the confines of the HVMCA. Many of the more common fish were found to be present in large numbers. Several species have been designated as nationally scarce whilst others are nationally rare and receive protection at varying levels. The estuary is obviously an important nursery for several species which are of economic importance. A full list of the fish species present and the protection some of them receive is given in the Appendices Nine species of fish have been recorded as new to the HVMCA.

  • Distribution and Coinfection of Microparasites and Macroparasites in Juvenile Salmonids in Three Upper Willamette River Tributaries
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Sean Robert Roon for the degree of Master of Science in Microbiology presented on December 9, 2014. Title: Distribution and Coinfection of Microparasites and Macroparasites in Juvenile Salmonids in Three Upper Willamette River Tributaries. Abstract approved: ______________________________________________________ Jerri L. Bartholomew 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) the distribution of select microparasites in wild salmonids and (2) the prevalence, geographical distribution, and community composition of metazoan parasites infecting these fish. From 2011-2013, I surveyed 279 Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha and 149 rainbow trout O. mykiss for one viral (IHNV) and four bacterial (Aeromonas salmonicida, Flavobacterium columnare, Flavobacterium psychrophilum, and Renibacterium salmoninarum) microparasites known to cause mortality of fish in Willamette River hatcheries. The only microparasite detected was Renibacterium salmoninarum, causative agent of bacterial kidney disease, which was detected at all three sites. I identified 23 metazoan parasite taxa in these fish. Nonmetric multidimensional scaling of metazoan parasite communities reflected a nested structure with trematode metacercariae being the basal parasite taxa at all three sites. The freshwater trematode Nanophyetus salmincola was the most common macroparasite observed at three sites. Metacercariae of N. salmincola have been shown to impair immune function and disease resistance in saltwater. To investigate if N. salmincola affects disease susceptibility in freshwater, I conducted a series of disease challenges to evaluate whether encysted N.

  • Poster Presentations Anthropogenic Impacts Interacting Influence of Low
    Poster Presentations Anthropogenic Impacts Interacting influence of low salinity and nutrient pulses on the growth of bloom-forming Ulva compressa Guidone, M.; Steele, L. Sacred Heart University, Fairfield, CT 06825. [email protected] For the eastern US, it is predicted that climate change will increase the frequency of severe rainstorms, inundating coastal areas with pulses of freshwater that will reduce salinity but also temparily increase nutrients through sewage overflow and storm runoff. In an effort to predict how this may influence the frequency and severity of macroalgal blooms, this study examined the interacting effect of salinity and nutrient supply on bloom-forming Ulva compressa. In laboratory experiments with constant nutrient supply, U. compressa showed decreased growth at low salinities; however, this decrease was not detectable until the fifth day of treatment. Moreover, U. compressa demonstrated an extraordinary tolerance for freshwater, surviving for 48 hours without nutrients at 0 PSU. When exposed to pulses of freshwater (0 PSU) and varying nutrient levels (none, low, high) lasting either 0.5, 4, or 8 hours, U. compressa growth was negatively impacted in the treatment without nutrients and positively impacted by the low and high nutrient treatments. Furthermore, thalli in the high nutrient treatment showed increased growth with increased pulse time. These findings, combined with observations of U. compressa’s tolerance for high temperatures, suggest Ulva blooms will not decrease in frequency or severity with a change in precipitation patterns.
