Endangered wild salmon infected by newly discovered viruses

eLife, 2019
The collapse of iconic, keystone populations of sockeye (Oncorhynchus nerka) and Chinook (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) salmon in the Northeast Pacific is of great concern. It is thought that infectious disease may contribute to declines, but little is known

Properties of the Sockeye Salmon Virus (Oregon Strain)

Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1969
SummarySeveral important characteristics of the sockeye salmon virus have been determined. It replicates abundantly in cultures of sockeye salmon cells, producing characteristic cytopathic effects. Most of the new virus produced is released into the culture fluid.

Species identification and mitochondrial genomes of ancient fish bones from the Riverine Kachemak tradition of the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2018
Seven fish vertebrae were chosen for analysis from the 49-KEN-147 archaeological site in the Kenai Peninsula, Alaska. Mitochondrial DNA analysis of the ancient fish bones revealed that they were from sockeye and coho salmon.

Adaptive and Neutral Polymorphisms of the Onne-DAB Gene from the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) in Sockeye Salmon Populations on the Asian Range

Diversity, 2023
The variability of an MHC complex gene in sockeye salmon populations throughout the Asian range was studied to identify “footprints” indicative of pathogen-mediated selection and neutral demographic processes that have influenced these populations in ...

Evaluating relationships between wild Skeena river sockeye salmon productivity and the abundance of spawning channel enhanced sockeye smolts.

PLoS ONE, 2014
The enhancement of salmon populations has long been used to increase the abundance of salmon returning to spawn and/or to be captured in fisheries. However, in some instances enhancement can have adverse impacts on adjacent non-enhanced populations.

Global assessment of extinction risk to populations of Sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Concern about the decline of wild salmon has attracted the attention of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN). The IUCN applies quantitative criteria to assess risk of extinction and publishes its results on the Red ...

Long-term changes of abundance and population structure for sockeye salmon in Lake Dalneye (southeastern Kamchatka)

Известия ТИНРО, 2021
Effects of interannual fluctuations of sockeye salmon escapement to the spawning grounds on dynamics of sexual, age and length-weight structure of the population are demonstrated on generalized data of long-term observations in Lake Dalneye in 1939–2020.

Investigation of the nutritional composition of different types of salmon available to Canadian consumers

Journal of Agriculture and Food Research, 2020
Salmon is regarded as an excellent source of nutrients and there are numerous choices in the types of salmon available. In North America, nutritional labelling for fresh seafood is not required.

Meiotic maps of sockeye salmon derived from massively parallel DNA sequencing

BMC Genomics, 2012
Background Meiotic maps are a key tool for comparative genomics and association mapping studies. Next-generation sequencing and genotyping by sequencing are speeding the processes of SNP discovery and the development of new genetic tools, including ...
