| characterization of strains of vibrio splendidus and v. tapetis isolated from corkwing wrasse symphodus melops suffering vibriosis. | two vibrio bacteria pathogenic to the corkwing wrasse symphodus melops were isolated. vibriosis-inducing strain lp1 was isolated as the dominanting bacterium in kidney samples of dead and moribund wrasse from a population suffering vibriosis and high daily mortality in 1998 on the norwegian west coast. the other vibriosis-inducing strain, lp2, was isolated from wrasse captured the following year. re-infection experiments have confirmed that these strains cause vibriosis in corkwing wrasse. both ... | 2003 | 12608565 |
| the efficacy of a single intraperitoneal injection of oxolinic acid in the treatment of bacterial infections in goldsinny wrasse (ctenolabrus rupestris) and corkwing wrasse (symphodus melops) studied under field and laboratory conditions. | the efficacy of a single intraperitoneal injection of oxolinic acid to control an outbreak of atypical aeromonas salmonicida infection in goldsinny wrasse (ctenolabrus rupestris) and in the treatment of systemic vibriosis in corkwing wrasse (symphodus melops) was examined. in addition a field study was performed to examine the effect of medication on the survival rate of goldsinny wrasse in atlantic salmon cages. four groups of wild caught goldsinny wrasse, each of 50 fish, were treated with an ... | 2003 | 12755901 |
| analysis of micronuclei in blue mussels and fish from the baltic and north seas. | micronuclei (mn) were analyzed in erythrocytes of flounder (platichthys flesus) and wrasse (symphodus melops) and in gill cells of blue mussels (mytilus edulis). the organisms were collected from three study stations in the baltic sea and from seven stations in the north sea (karmsund area, norway) 4 times. the statistically significant differences obtained were related to the season, sex of the fish, and sampling locality. higher mn frequencies were found in fish and mussels collected from the ... | 2004 | 15269909 |
| vibrio tapetis-like strain isolated from introduced manila clams ruditapes philippinarum showing symptoms of brown ring disease in norway. | the manila clam ruditapes philippinarum was introduced to norway in 1987 and was produced in 2 hatcheries until 1991. clam seed was planted at 6 sites. two sites were on the island of tysnes, south of bergen. surviving adult manila clams were recovered in 1995 and 1996. in the present study, manila clams from the original seeding that displayed morphological signs of brown ring disease (brd) were recovered in june 2003 (n=7) and in june 2004 (n=17). samples from extrapallial fluid, tissues and h ... | 2008 | 18924380 |
| a mortality event in wrasse species (labridae) associated with the presence of viral haemorrhagic septicaemia virus. | viral haemorrhagic septicaemia (vhs) is an infectious disease of farmed and wild fish and has an extensive host range in both freshwater and marine environments. in december 2012, a wrasse population consisting of ballan, labrus bergylta (ascanius), corkwing, symphodus melops (l.), cuckoo, labrus mixtus l., goldsinny, ctenolabrus rupestris (l.), and rock cook, centrolabrus exoletus (l.), held at a marine hatchery in the shetland isles, scotland, experienced a mortality event. approximately 10 00 ... | 2015 | 24661037 |
| characterization of igm in norwegian cleaner fish (lumpfish and wrasses). | the use of cleaner fish in norwegian aquaculture has to a large extent been based on wild catches, but breeding of lumpfish and ballan wrasse is currently increasing. due to disease problems and required vaccine development, tools to study immune responses and a better understanding of the immune system in these species is demanded. the present study comprises lumpfish (cyclopterus lumpus) and five species of wrasses: ballan wrasse (labrus bergylta), rock cook (centrolabrus exoletus), cuckoo wra ... | 2016 | 27702679 |
| evidence of uptake, biotransformation and dna binding of polyaromatic hydrocarbons in atlantic cod and corkwing wrasse caught in the vicinity of an aluminium works. | feral atlantic cod (gadus morhua) and corkwing wrasse (symphodus melops) were investigated for polyaromatic hydrocarbon (pah) contamination in the karmsund strait, western norway. this strait is highly contaminated with pahs, and a main source is the chronic release of gas-scrubbing effluents from a local aluminium works. in both species, the level of biliary pah metabolites and hepatic dna adducts were higher in fish collected near the aluminium works. interestingly, a significantly higher leve ... | 2001 | 11570803 |
