The Kootenai River white sturgeon Acipenser transmontanus
is a landlocked population restricted to a 270 km stretch of the Kootenai River, which flows from western Montana through northern Idaho and into British Columbia. This population has shown an almost complete lack of natural juvenile recruitment since 1974. The total adult population in 1998 was estimated to be about 650 individuals and this fish is currently classified as endangered by the Ida...
متن کاملReplication and pathogenesis of white sturgeon iridovirus (WSIV) in experimentally infected white sturgeon Acipenser transmontanus juveniles and sturgeon cell lines.
Characteristics of the in vitro propagation of the white sturgeon iridovirus (WSIV) were examined in 6 sturgeon cell lines. One new cell line originating from gonadal tissues (WSGO) produced up to 12-fold more WSIV [approximately 22 TCID50 (50% tissue culture infective dose) cell-1], than that of a previously established reference spleen cell line (WSS-2). Infected WSGO cell cultures were exami...
متن کاملEffects of feed restriction on salinity tolerance in white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus).
A multistressor study was conducted to investigate interactive effects of nutritional status and salinity on osmoregulation of juvenile white sturgeon. Our hypothesis was that lower nutritional status would decrease the salinity tolerance of juvenile white sturgeon. A four-week feed restriction (12.5%, 25%, 50%, 100% of optimum feeding rate: OFR defined as the rate (% body weight per day) at wh...
متن کاملIntraspecific DNA sequence variation of the mitochondrial control region of white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus).
Intraspecific sequence variation in the D-loop region of mtDNA in white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus), a relict North American fish species, was examined in 27 individuals from populations of the Columbia and Fraser rivers. Thirty-three varied nucleotide positions were present in a 462-nucleotide D-loop sequence, amplified using the polymerase chain reaction. Bootstrapped neighbor-joining ...
