Abstract:

To better characterize neoplasm epizootics in the Great Lakes basin and their association with families of contaminants, we sampled five locations: the Fox and Menominee rivers, Lake Michigan; Munuscong Lake, St. Mary's River; and the Black and Cuyahoga rivers, Lake Erie. Frequencies of external and liver tumors were determined for brown bullhead (Ictalurus nebulosus) from all locations except the Black River and for walleye (Stizostedion vitreum) from the Lake Michigan and St. Mary's River sites. Sediment samples were analyzed for metals, polychlorinated aromatics, and polynuclear aromatic hy

Abstract:

Hydropower development and effects on fish assemblages by dams in Lancang River Basin have arisen great concerns. As a compensation measure, Xishuangbanna State Nature Reserve was established at Luosuo River in 2007, to protect fish species affected by dams in lower Lancang River. Based on published data of fish since 1950s, we analyzed the fish biodiversity of Luosuo River and the similarity with species of lower Lancang River, using G-F index and Sprensen similarity index respectively. The results clearly show that fish biodiversity is quite high at the genus level in Luosuo River. 60 specie

In both waters successful reproduction was established by early developmental stages of a large number of resident fish species. The species composition in both riverine and lake habitats was similar. In the gravel-pit lakes, fry of all species was much more abundant than in the River Rhine. Thus, the lentic waters of gravel-pit lakes connected with the River Rhine represent highly productive spawning and nursery areas ev

Colonisation theory relative to introduced populations was examined with a view to determining the usefulness of theoretical concepts in the prediction of the success of an invasion by a species. To this end, the Great Fish River, with reference to species introduced by the Orange/Fish Tunnel, was used as a case history. It was concluded that theoretical descriptions of population growth, control and decline are useful only when considering individual ecosystems or species.

Climate change is a global issue and the effects on fish populations remain largely unknown. It is thought that climate change could affect fish at all levels of biological organisation, from cellular, individual, population and community. This thesis has taken a holistic approach to examine the ways in which climate change could affect fish from both tropical, marine ecosystems (Great Barrier Reef, Australia) and temperate, freshwater ecosystems (non-tidal River Thames, Britain). Aerobic scope of coral reef fish tested on the Great Barrier Reef was significantly reduced by just a 2°C rise in

Abstract:

This chapter discusses one of the first dead zones, the River Thames near London in the 19th century. London used the river as a sewer to dispose of untreated human waste and garbage, causing oxygen to disappear and gut-wrenching odors to well up, shutting down the city in the summer of 1858, aka the Great Stink. The sewage also carried pathogens that contaminated drinking water. The chapter also points out that dead zones were common in other rivers near large cities, including the Delaware River south of Philadelphia. Wastewater treatment solved the problem, and oxygen has returned to the River Thames, the Delaware River, and many other urban rivers in rich countries. Also discussed is the fact that fish and other aquatic life have also returned, but not completely. Adequate dissolved oxygen is essential, but more is needed to make a habitat livable and to ensure the complete recovery of aquatic life.

<em>Abstract.</em>—Captive Atlantic sturgeon <em>Acipenser oxyrinchus </em>considered for use as broodstock in a restoration program were genotyped using nuclear DNA microsatellites and compared to wild collections from the Hudson River, New York (source of parents of the captive sturgeon) and from Albemarle Sound, North Carolina. Because the potential broodfish were the progeny of a small number of parents, maintaining genetic diversity and minimizing inbreeding is essential to a successful breeding and supplementation program. The microsatellite loci used in this analysis generated unique multilocus genotypes for each of 136 Atlantic sturgeon. Analyses indicated significant genetic separation between the New York and North Carolina collections and correctly identified the potential broodstock as a subset of the Hudson River population. Pairwise genetic distance (–ln proportion of shared alleles) between half and full siblings in the potential broodfish was as great as 1.386, a value exceeded by only 36% of the sampled broodfish pairs available for mating. Because the current broodstock population does not seem to have deviated far from their ancestral population in the Hudson River, progeny from that broodstock, or the parents themselves, would seem to be genetically suitable for release back into the Hudson River.

Abstract:

<em>Abstract.</em>—For several decades infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) has been a serious pathogen impacting salmon and trout in the North American West. In the Columbia River basin, IHNV caused severe epidemics in sockeye salmon <em>Oncorhynchys nerka </em>hatcheries during the 1950s, contributing to a great reduction of sockeye culture efforts. Since the early 1980s, IHNV has been endemic at fluctuating prevalence levels in both steelhead <em>O. mykiss </em>and Chinook salmon <em>O. tshawytscha </em>stocks in the basin, causing frequent epidemics in cultured steelhead fry. Infectious hematopoietic necrosis has also been endemic and epidemic in the Idaho rainbow trout (nonanadromous <em>O. mykiss</em>) industry since its emergence in the Hagerman Valley in the late 1970s. Infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus strain typing methods based on genetic analyses of gene sequences have recently been applied to more than 270 virus isolates from the Columbia River basin, including 150 isolates from the Hagerman Valley. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that there are two distinct major genogroups of IHNV, designated U and M, that overlap in the Columbia River basin. The U genogroup has a long history of prevalence throughout the Columbia River basin with the exception that it has not been found in the upper Snake River watershed, including the Hagerman Valley. Genogroup M is prevalent throughout the Hagerman Valley rainbow trout industry, and it also occurs in the lower Snake and lower Columbia River, but it has never been found in the upper Columbia River basin. The ability to distinguish different IHNV genotypes has provided numerous insights into the epidemiology of IHNV throughout the basin, suggesting frequent viral traffic between cultured fish stocks and also between wild and cultured fish. The patterns of M genogroup IHNV in the lower Snake and lower Columbia River basins suggest that virus translocation does not occur by simple downstream water flow, but more likely involves fish translocations that are part of salmon resource management in the region. The novel insights gained from this genetic typing underscore the critical need to manage salmonid stocks to prevent further spread and establishment of M genogroup IHNV throughout the basin.

<em>Abstract.</em>—The Slave River is the largest tributary to Great Slave Lake and the second largest river flowing northward in North America. There are no dams or major industrial developments on the lower Slave River, but further upstream in its Peace and Athabasca tributaries there are numerous pulp mills and a large hydroelectric project (Bennett Dam). These developments appear to have had limited effects on the Slave River fish fauna. The most significant concern is the reduced flood-pulse due to flow regulation, which is hypothesized to have affected spawning success in some species. The other major human impact is from commercial fishing on Great Slave Lake. Migratory species, such as inconnu, have been extirpated from some tributaries due to overfishing. In the Slave River, however, the impact of fishing on inconnu and other species appears to have been less severe. Although the number of age-groups has decreased within some species, the species composition appears to have remained stable.
