... muscle immune responses in size-matched coho salmon ( Oncorhynchus kisutch ) achieving different growth rates. We compared a wild-type strain with two GH transgenic groups from the same genetic background achieving either maximal or suppressed growth – a design separating GH's direct effects from its...

... light on this apparent dichotomy, we used adult coho salmon ( Oncorhynchus kisutch ) to test the prediction that peak AS coincides with population-specific, historically experienced river temperatures. We assessed AS at 10 and 15°C, which represent a typical river migration temperature and the upper...

... of juvenile coho salmon ( Oncorhynchus kisutch ). We also explore how natural fluctuations in thyroxine (T 4 ) relate to proliferation in the epithelium during the parr-smolt transformation. In both studies, we found that BrdU labeled both single and clusters of mitotic cells. The total number of BrdU-labeled...

... performance through modification of muscle contractility in juvenile (112 mm mean total length) coho salmon ( Oncorhynchus kisutch ), we measured swimming performance and isolated muscle bundle contractility of fish implanted with 3’,3’,5’-tri-iodo- L -thyronine (T 3 ) pellets, of fish implanted with sham...

... post-hatching development in three salmonid species: chinook salmon ( Oncorhynchus tshawytscha ), coho salmon ( Oncorhynchus kisutch ) and brown trout ( Salmo trutta ). These three species, while morphologically and developmentally similar, hatch and mature at different sizes (total length). Comparison...

...Gabrielle A. Nevitt; William J. Moody ABSTRACT Electrical properties of ciliated olfactory receptor cells isolated from coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) were studied using the whole-cell mode of the patch-clamp recording technique. Voltage-dependent currents could be separated into two inward...
