Book Temperature and Genetic Effects on Growth  Body Shape  and Sprint Swim Speed in Rainbow Trout

Download or read book Temperature and Genetic Effects on Growth Body Shape and Sprint Swim Speed in Rainbow Trout written by Christopher Steven Duke and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ultimate phenotype for a given trait results from the combined influences of underlying genetics and environmental factors; predicting how organisms respond to changing environments thus depends on understanding the relative impacts of genes and environmental variables on phenotypes. Here, I explore how changes in one of the most fundamental environmental variables, temperature, impact phenotypes with strong survival implications for rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), and explore the underlying genetic architecture associated with phenotypic change in response to temperature. In this dissertation, I begin by comparing responses of growth, size, body shape, and sprint swimming speed phenotypes to rearing at 10° C and 18° C in two geographically disparate, semi-wild clonal strains of O. mykiss (Whale Rock clonal line, from California, and Swanson clonal line, from Alaska), compared to two clonal strains with hatchery origins (Arlee and Hot Creek clonal lines). I find that Whale Rock and Swanson overall show the greatest between-line differences in these phenotypes, and vary notably in the nature and magnitude of their plastic response to temperature. I then explore the influence of 10° C and 18° C rearing temperature on the location of body fins that potentially influence sprint swimming speeds (dorsal fin, anal fin, and pelvic fins) at 32 and 35 weeks of age in Whale Rock and Swanson clonal lines, with Hot Creek as a hatchery-origin clonal line for comparison. I find complex patterns of variation in fin location at both ages, both within clonal line at different temperatures and between clonal lines within the same temperature. Of the fin locations measured, only one was found to significantly influence sprint swimming speed, which was the distance between the operculum and the most anterior margin of the anal fin. Whale Rock and Swanson showed distinctly disparate differences in fin metrics, again suggesting their suitability for exploring genetic architecture of these phenotypes. Finally, I use a quantitative genetic approach to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL), finding evidence for significant and suggestive QTL influencing the measured phenotypes, as well as evidence for temperature-specific QTL.

Book Trout and Salmon of North America

Download or read book Trout and Salmon of North America written by Robert Behnke and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-07-06 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This beautiful and definitive guide brings together the world's lead leading expert on North American trout and salmon, Robert Behnke, and the foremost illustrator in the field, Joseph Tomelleri. North America is graced with the greatest diversity of trout and salmon on earth. From tiny brook trout in mountain streams of the Northeast, to cutthroat trout in the rivers of the Rockies, to Chinook salmon of the Pacific, the continent is home to more than 70 types of trout and salmon. How this came to be, how they are related, and what makes them unique -- and so breathtaking -- is the story of Trout and Salmon of North America. The more than 100 illustrations of trout and salmon by Joseph Tomelleri showcased here exhibit a genius for detail, coloration, and proportion. Each portrait is made from field notes, streamside observations, photographs, and specimens collected by the artist. The result is a set of the most accurate and stunning illustrations of fish ever created. Robert Behnke has distilled 50 years of his research and writing about trout and salmon in completing this book. No one understands better than Behnke the diversity and conservation issues concerning these fishes or communicates so lucidly the biological wonders and complexities of their particular beauty. Also included are more than 40 richly detailed maps that clearly show the ranges of populations of trout and salmon throughout North America. An irresistible delight for anyone who appreciates natural history, Trout and Salmon of North America is a master guide to the natural elegance of our native fishes.

Book Migration Ecology of Marine Fishes

Download or read book Migration Ecology of Marine Fishes written by David H. Secor and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A synthetic treatment of all marine fish taxa (teleosts and elasmobranchs), this book employs explanatory frameworks from avian and systems ecology while arguing that migrations are emergent phenomena, structured through schooling, phenotypic plasticity, and other collective agencies. The book provides overviews of the following concepts: The comparative movement ecology of fishes and birds; The alignment of mating systems with larval dispersal; Schooling and migration as adaptations to marine food webs; Natal homing; Connectivity in populations and metapopulations; The contribution of migration ecology to population resilience
