Lack of evidence of infectious salmon anemia virus in pollock Pollachius virens cohabitating with infected farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar
No full textThe infectious salmon anemia (ISA) virus causes lethargy, anemia, hemorrhage of the internal organs, and death in farmed Atlantic salmon Salmo salar. It has been a cause of disease in Norwegian farmed Atlantic salmon since 1984 and has since been identified in Canada, Scotland, the United States, and the Faroe Islands. Wild fish have been proposed as a viral reservoir because they are capable of close contact with farmed salmon. Laboratory studies have shown that brown trout and sea trout Salmo trutta, rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss, and herring Clupea harengus tested positive for the virus weeks after intra-peritoneal injection of the ISA virus. Pollock Pollachius virens are commonly found in and around salmon cages, and their close association with the salmon makes them an important potential viral reservoir to consider. The objective of this study was to determine the presence or prevalence of ISA virus in pollock cohabitating with ISA-infected farmed Atlantic salmon. Kidney tissue from 93 pollock that were living with ISA-infected salmon in sea cages were tested with reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test. Results yielded the expected 193 bp product for positive controls, while no product was observed in any of the pollock samples, resulting in an ISA viral prevalence of 0%. This study strengthens the evidence that pollock are unlikely to be an ISA virus reservoir for farmed Atlantic salmon.LR: 20061115; PUBM: Print; JID: 8807037; ppublishSource type: Electronic(1

Named in reference to the country of Bolivia, in which two of the three known specimens were collected. Diagnosis. This species, along with T. latus, are the only two in the genus exhibiting a bicolored dorsum, with reddish forebody and blue-black elytra and reddish scutellum, head and antennae. See the diagnosis for T. latus, above, for additional diagnostic features. Description. Measurements (in mm): HL = 1.12–1.30; PL = 1.12–1.30; EL= 4.44–5.30; TL = 6.68–7.90; GHW = 1.36–1.52; GPW = 1.84–2.16; GEW = 3.20–3.52. Ratios: EL/GEW = 1.39–1.51; GPW/PL = 1.64–1.66; TL/GEW = 2.09–2.24; GPW/GHW = 1.35–1.43. With characters of Thisiomorphus, and the following: Body broadly ovate (TL / GEW 2.18), lateral elytral margins distinctly arcuate. Color. Antennae, maxillary palpi, head, pronotum and scutellum concolorous, rufo-testaceous; elytra dark, nearly black, with distinct blue metallic lustre; legs and venter uniformly rufo-testaceous. Antennae relatively short, antennomeres 3–6 short, filiform, 7–10 short, only slightly expanded distally. Pronotum distinctly wider than long (GPW / PL 1.65), much wider than head (GPW / GHW 1.40); lateral margins relatively parallel basally, then distinctly arcuate anteriorly, maximum width at posterior angles; hind angles not protruding; dorsal surface slightly and evenly convex, without depressions. Male genitalia unknown. Distribution. The three known specimens are from BOLIVIA (Cochabamba, Santa Cruz) and BRAZIL (Rondônia). FIGURE. 34.

Sharon Pollock

Pollock is nationally and internationally respected for her work and support of the theatre community. She has also played a major role in informing Canadians about the "dark side" of their history and current events. This collection, comprised entirely of new and original assessments of her work and contribution to theatre, is both timely and long overdue.

Blasing Springs, Riley County
No full textGretel Joyce Pollock, “Blasing Springs, Riley County,” Chapman Center Research Collections, https://ccrsresearchcollections.omeka.net/items/show/174.This is a short history of the hotel and mineral springs community that once existed on land owned by the William Blasing family, Zeandale Township, Riley County, Kansas. Although not actually a town, Blasing Springs was a thriving enterprise employing family members and local residents for many years. The hotel was destroyed by a series of tornados in the 1940s.
