The Status of Nebraska Fishes in the Missouri River. 2. Burbot (Gadidae: Lota Lota)

چکیده
Burbot harvest represented 5.1% of the fish-harvest in the tailwater of Gavins Point Dam in July 1956, one year after the dam was closed. Harvest increased from 510 in 1956 to 4,280 in 1958, but represented only 2% of the 1958 harvest. By 1961 burbot were no longer routinely caught in the tailwater, and their density decreased in the remainder of Nebraska's portion of the Missouri River. At present they are very rare and should be listed as endangered in Nebraska.

متن کاملPopulation genetic structure of North American burbot (Lota lota maculosa) across the Nearctic and at its contact zone with Eurasian burbot
The burbot, Lota lota (Teleostei: Gadidae), has a holarctic distribution, with one subspecies (Lota lota lota) living in the lakes and rivers of the Palaearctic and northwestern North America and the other (Lota lota maculosa) living in the Nearctic (except the northwest). We analysed nine microsatellite loci and the mitochondrial DNA control region of 350 burbot sampled across North America to...

Introduction the Burbot (Lota lota [L, 1758]) is a northern fish species with a circumpolar distribution in freshwater rivers, creeks, and lakes. Burbot live in cold lakes and rivers, where they tend to frequent deep water near the bottom (McPhail and Paragamian 2000). they can at tain a length of 1 m and a weight of 8 kg, although most fish are 0.3–0.6 m in length and weigh 1–3 kg (McPhail and...
متن کاملCharacterization of susceptibility and carrier status of burbot, Lota lota (L.), to IHNV, IPNV, Flavobacterium psychrophilum, Aeromonas salmonicida and Renibacterium salmoninarum.
In this study, susceptibility and potential carrier status of burbot, Lota lota, were assessed for five important fish pathogens. Burbot demonstrated susceptibility and elevated mortality following challenge with infectious haematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV) by immersion and to Aeromonas salmonicida by intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection. IHNV persisted in fish for at least 28 days, whereas A. s...
