Abstract:
A lipase has been partially purified from the bile of salmon (<i>Salmo salar</i>) with an apparent molecular size of 35 kDa and pI of pH 5.25. The enzyme was shown to preferentially cleave C20:5 and C18:4 fatty acids from the liver triacylglycerol of cod (<i>Gadus morhua</i>) as well as hydrolyse sterol and wax ester substrates. The enzyme was shown to hydrolyse substrate optimally at pH 7.1 in the presence of both 0.3M sodium chloride and low concentrations of bile alcohol sulphates. Sodium taurocholate could also partially activate the enzyme in the absence or at low concentrations of the al

The objective of the work described in the current thesis was to provide a better understanding of some of the key factors associated with sea louse, Lepeophtheirus salmonis, infection of farmed Atlantic salmon. In Chapter 2, initial work focused on establishing the vertical and horizontal distribution of sea lice copepodids and spatial patterns of on-farm infections. The louse distribution was investigated along the main current gradient across adjacent salmon production pens at three commercial sites. A depth profile for the distribution of larval lice was also established for the top 12 m o

Abstract:
Salmon Pancreas Disease Virus (SPDV) is the only viral species of the genus Alphavirus, family Togaviridae, affecting fish. SPDV induces two conditions historically recognised independently as Pancreas disease (PD) and Sleeping disease (SD), affecting Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L) and rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), respectively. Infection by SPDV can lead to clinical disease with characteristic acinar pancreatic necrosis and a range of myopathies of the skeletal and heart muscle. Mortality is not a necessary outcome of the disease and usually is not significant. However, affected fish

Salmon catch data wee analysed from fisheries in or around the mouths of some rivers on the east coast of Scotland spanning the period from the late eighteenth century to the 1980s.

These coincident changes in salmon catch data could not be explained by changes in the operation of fisheries and were therefore the results of changes in the population of salmon returning to the Scottish coast.

Growth, feeding and metabolism in juvenile Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L. Growth, feeding and metabolism were studied during the juvenile growth phase of Atlantic salmon. Comparisons were made between the faster and slower growing members of sibling populations which formed the upper and lower modes of a bimodal growth distribution. Several new techniques were developed in order to investigate these parameters in small fish. Specific growth rates of marked individuals within the bimodal distribution followed the same pattern of development as the whole population, and appeared to be more close

In this thesis I looked at the choice of mating tactics in male Atlantic salmon by determining the fertilisation success of individuals adopting different mating behaviours. In this species, as in most salmonids, males can either become sexually mature early in the life cycle, as small freshwater juveniles called parr, or undergo a sea migration before maturing. The alternative behaviours are thought to be contingent on environmental and social circumstances, although some researchers see them as mixed evolutionarily stable strategies.

Relatively little research has been done to investigate the way postcopulatory, prezygotic mechanisms act to isolate species at the level of the gamete.

Half the world’s river volume is affected by flow alterations and/or fragmentation, a figure that is likely to increase with the current global surge in hydropower development. At the same time, freshwater biodiversity is in rapid decline. In fluvial ecosystems, streamflow is a master variable, shaping riverine species’ habitat over space and time. Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and brown trout (S. trutta) are examples of species that need fluvial habitats for reproduction and juvenile rearing, and whose flow needs can come in conflict with hydropower production objectives.

Nutrients are essential in order that living matter can grow and reproduce successfully, and of particular importance are carbon (C), nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) (Stockner and Ashley 2003).

P, however, does not have a gas phase, cannot be renewed and as such is often regarded as the element in shortest supply in most freshwater environments (Stockner and Ashley 2003). It should be noted, though, that other nutrients, for example silica, are also often of importance in freshwater ecosystems and that nutrients

In this experiment pairs of fish, matched by length, were compared. For each pair, one fish had experienced ambient cold temperatures (cold treatment) during embryogenesis and the other elevated temperatures (warm treatment
