...Chris M. Wood; Ilan M. Ruhr; Kevin L. Schauer; Yadong Wang; Edward M. Mager; M. Danielle McDonald; Bruce Stanton; Martin Grosell ABSTRACT Freshwater- and seawater-acclimated Fundulus heteroclitus were exposed to acute hypoxia (10% air saturation, 3 h), followed by normoxic recovery (3 h). In both...

..., potentially resulting in a strong interaction between ionoregulation and acid–base regulation. The present study examined the physiological interaction of elevated dissolved CO 2 (an acid–base disturbance) on osmoregulation during seawater acclimation (an ionoregulatory disturbance) in juvenile white sturgeon...

...Jason S. Bystriansky; Patricia M. Schulte SUMMARY Few studies have examined changes in salmon gill ion transporter expression during the transition from seawater to freshwater, a pivotal moment in the salmonid life cycle. Seawater-acclimated Atlantic salmon were transferred to freshwater and blood...

.../xeric species of snakes measured in other taxa. Within Laticauda , R s is significantly greater (TEWL lower) in the more terrestrial species and lowest (TEWL highest)in the more aquatic species. Previously reported losses of water from snakes kept in seawater exhibit a reversed trend, with lower rates...

...Jeff G. Richards; Jeffrey W. Semple; Jason S. Bystriansky; Patricia M. Schulte SUMMARY We identified five Na + /K + -ATPase α-isoforms in rainbow trout and characterized their expression pattern in gills following seawater transfer. Three of these isoforms were closely related to other vertebrate...
