Transmission of infectious pancreatic necrosis virus in striped bass, Morone saxatilis (Walbaum)

Infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV) did not cause increased mortality in experimentally challenged striped bass, Morone saxatilis (Walbaum). Fry became transiently infected after waterborne challenge but fingerlings were resistant to that route. However, striped bass fingerlings readily became chronic virus carriers following ingestion of IPNV-contaminated food. Vertical transmission was n

Case histories of bald eagles and other raptors killed by organophosphorus insecticides topically applied to livestock

Since 1982 when secondary poisoning of a red-tailed hawk (Buteo jamaicensis) was documented following the recommended use of famphur applied topically to cattle, the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center has tested dead birds of prey for poisoning by famphur and other pouron organophosphorus (OP) insecticides. Brain cholinesterase (ChE) activity was first determined, then if ChE was depressed ≥50%, st
