INVESTIGATION OF GREAT LAKES LAKE WHITEFISH EGG FERTILITY AND HEALTH
<p>Lake whitefish (<em>Coregonus clupeaformis</em>) recruitment in the Great Lakes has declined, and it remains unclear whether early failure at fertilization and during embryo development varies among spawning stocks. I tested whether fertilization differs among locations and which biological …

Population Structure of Lake Whitefish (Coregonus Clupeaformis) on Multiple Spatial Scales: Transitioning to a Genomics Approach
… used to investigate the population structure of lake and round whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis and Prosopium cylindraceum) in the vicinity of a nuclear power plant on Lake Huron. The analysis of over 200 individuals of each species revealed no fine scale population subdivision relevant to …

Effects of Temperature and Thyroid Hormone on Oxidative and Lipid Metabolism in Juvenile Lake Whitefish (Coregonus Clupeaformis)
… metabolic markers in the cool-water teleost, lake whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis). Juveniles were exposed to 13 (control), 17 or 21 ºC for 4, 8 or 24 days. Widespread changes in the abundance of mRNA transcripts were observed in enzymes associated with oxidative metabolism (citrate …

Plasticity of the heat shock response and development of thermotolerance during embryonic development of Lake Whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis)
Thermal discharge produced by industrial facilities has the potential to impact development of fish by increasing background temperature of the surrounding area. The overall objectives of this study were to: 1) Examine the interplay between how temperature and frequency of heat shock and post-heat …

The influence of embryo incubation temperature on later life aerobic performance of Lake Whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis) and Yellow Perch (Perca flavescens)
… reproductive characteristics, the fall spawning Lake Whitefish and the spring spawning Yellow Perch. I hypothesized that whole-animal aerobic performance of both species would be reduced when embryos were incubated at temperatures 3 °C above optimal. I also hypothesized that Lake Whitefish would …

Use Of Multi-Gear Sampling To Improve Abundance Estimates Of Demersal Coregonids In The Laurentian Great Lakes
… hoyi), Shortjaw Cisco (Coregonus zenithicus), Lake Whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis) and Round Whitefish (Prosopium cylindraceum) play a vital role in both the Laurentian Great Lakes food webs and the commercial fishing industry. Hydroacoustic sampling has proven useful when performing stock …

Physiological and Cellular Responses Used By Lake Whitfish (Coregonus Clupeaformis) in Response to Thermal and Hypoxic Stress at Different Points in Development
… shock response (HSR) and hypoxia response, in lake whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis) at several life-stages, to understand when these responses could be activated in response to stress. The HSR and HR are mediated by heat shock proteins (Hsps) and hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (Hif-1α), …

The Phylogeography of Prosopium in Western North America
The mountain whitefish (Prosopium williamsoni) has been largely overlooked in population genetic analyses despite its wide distribution in discrete drainage basins in western North America for over four million years. Its closest sister taxa the Bear Lake whitefish (P. abyssicola), Bonneville cisco …
