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. -

National Wild Fish Health Survey California-Nevada Fish Health Center Annual Report for fiscal year 2005 National Wild Fish Health Survey Annual Progress Report FY 2005 Prepared by Lyn Rosten and Kimberly True California-Nevada Fish Health Center Center staff conducted the National Wild Fish Health Survey (NWFHS) in the 2004/2005 fiscal year by collecting fish tissue samples and performing laboratory tests for major fish pathogens in accordance with standardized procedures (NWFHS Laboratory Procedures Manual – 2005, ). This data is entered into a national database and is accessible to the public and resource managers, via the web, and can be viewed at: http://wildfishsurvey.fws.gov/ or http://www.esg.montana.edu/nfhdb/ Kimberly True, Assistant Project Leader Lyn Rosten, Biological Science Technician Eric Wiseman, Fishery Biologist Ken Nichols, Fishery Biologist Scott Foott, Project leader Ron Stone, Fishery Biologist Also assisted with field collections and lab work. 2 Abstract The National Wild Fish Survey (NWFHS), conducted by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service’s Fish Health Centers, assesses the prevalence and distribution of major fish pathogens in wild fish populations. In 2004-2005, the California-Nevada Fish Health Center (Ca-Nv FHC) focused on disease monitoring in the upper Klamath River basin. Pathogens associated with diseased fish in the Klamath River include bacteria (Flavobacterium columnare and motile aeromonad bacteria), digenetic trematode (presumptive Nanophyetus salmincola) and myxozoan parasites (Parvicapsula minibicornis and Ceratomyxa shasta). The incidence of two parasites Ceratomyxa shasta and Parvicapsula minibicornis in juvenile chinook salmon is of special concern. Another focus in 2004-2005 was done in collaboration with Nevada Division of Wildlife’s regional biologists. -

However, in stained tis- sue sections prepared for light microscopy, taxonomic features will be missing, thus making parasite identification difficult. This work highlights the characteristic features of representative parasites in tissue sections to aid identification. The parasite examples discussed are derived from species af- fecting finfish, and predominantly include parasites associated with disease or those commonly observed as incidental findings in disease diagnostic cases. Emphasis is on protozoan and small metazoan parasites (such as Myxosporidia) because these are the organisms most likely to be missed or mis-diagnosed during gross examination. Figures are presented in colour to assist biologists and veterinarians who are required to assess host/parasite interactions by light microscopy.

The taxa Monogenea, Cestoda, Digenea, Nematoda, Acanthocephala, Crustacea and Hirudinea are covered. A total of 169 taxonomic entities are recorded in rainbow trout worldwide although few of these may prove synonyms in future anal yses of the parasite specimens. These records include Monogenea (15), Cestoda (27), Digenea (37), Nematoda (39), Acanthocephala (23), Crustacea (17), Mollusca (6) and Hirudinea ( 5).

Bartholomew* Department of Microbiology, Oregon State University, 226 Nash Hall, Corvallis, Oregon 97331, USA Abstract The freshwater trematode Nanophyetus salmincola has been demonstrated to impair salmonid immune function and resistance to the marine pathogen Vibrio anguillarum, potentially resulting in ocean mortality. We examined whether infection by the parasite N. salmincola similarly increases mortality of juvenile Chinook Salmon On- corhynchus tshawytscha when they are exposed to the freshwater pathogens Flavobacterium columnare or Aeromonas salmonicida, two bacteria that juvenile salmonids might encounter during their migration to the marine environ- ment. We used a two-part experimental design where juvenile Chinook Salmon were first infected with N. salmincola through cohabitation with infected freshwater snails, Juga spp., and then challenged with either F. columnare or A. salmonicida. Cumulative percent mortality from F. columnare infection was higher in N. salmincola-parasitized fish than in nonparasitized fish. In contrast, cumulative percent mortality from A. salmonicida infection did not differ between N. salmincola-parasitized and nonparasitized groups. No mortalities were observed in the N. salmin- cola-parasitized-only and control groups from either challenge. -

The parasite release hypothesis and the success of invasive fish in New Zealand A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Biological Science at The University of Waikato by Keshi Zhang The University of Waikato 2012 Abstract Non-indigenous species are commonly released from their native enemies, including parasites, when they are introduced into new geographical areas. This has been referred to as the enemy release hypothesis and more strictly as the parasite release hypothesis. The loss of parasites is commonly inferred to explain the invasiveness of non-indigenous species. I examined parasite release in New Zealand non-indigenous freshwater fishes. A literature review was undertaken in order to collate lists of the known parasite fauna of 20 New Zealand non-indigenous freshwater fish species.
