What's the difference between namaycush and togue?
Namaycush
Definition:
(n.) A large North American lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush). It is usually spotted with red, and sometimes weighs over forty pounds. Called also Mackinaw trout, lake trout, lake salmon, salmon trout, togue, and tuladi.
Example Sentences:
(1) Amino acid metabolism was examined in mitochondria from the lateral red muscle of a teleost (lake char, Salvelinus namaycush) and a nonteleost fish (bowfin, Amia calva).
(2) Joint segregation was examined between ME-1, ME-2, and nine other biochemical loci in a splake--lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) X brook trout hybrid--backcross.
(3) The zona radiata from unactivated and activated eggs from chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha), chum salmon (O. kisutch), pink salmon (O. gorbuscha), brown trout (Salmo trutta), rainbow trout (S. gairdneri) and lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) were examined using scanning and transmission microscopy.
(4) Mean residues of sigma DDT peaked at 1.72 ppm and 7.60 ppm in lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) from Lakes Superior and Huron, respectively.
(5) Critical light levels necessary to produce avoidance movements in photonegative free embryos (eleutheroembryos) of the lake and brook charr and their F1 hybrid splake, (S. namaycush X S. fontinalis) were determined and compared to previously studied movement patterns within artificial substrate systems.
(6) Lake trout, Salvelinus namaycush, egg PSGP (PSGP(Sn)) differs from rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri, egg PSGP (PSGP(Sg)) in its sialic acid composition; the former contains both N-acetyl- and N-glycolyl-D-neuraminic acid residues, designated Neu5Ac and Neu5Gc, while the latter contains only Neu5Gc residues.
(7) The repeat length of the cistron of S. namaycush is 26 kb.
(8) To assess the role of triiodothyronine (T3) in mediating short-term changes in metabolism, such as those occurring in circadian patterns, we examined the effects of intraperitoneal injection of T3 on the oxidation of substrates by isolated mitochondria from liver of the bowfin, Amia calva, and red muscle and liver of the lake char, Salvelinus namaycush.
(9) Mean PCB residues in bloaters caught in Lake Huron in 1969-71 and 1975-76, and splake (Salvelinus fontinalis and S. namaycush) and cisco (Coregonus artedii) caught in 1975 exceeded the 2 ppm tolerance level.
(10) An absence of association of phenotypic sex (presumably Sex-1) with these same three loci and other loci known to be linked to these loci is shown in splakes (S. fontinalis x Salvelinus namaycush) and cutbows (Salmo gairdneri x Salmo clarki).
(11) The ribosomal RNA cistrons of three species of trout: Salvelinus namaycush (lake trout), Salvelinus fontinalis (brook trout), and Salmo gairdneri (rainbow trout) were examined by Southern blot analysis of genomic DNA.
(12) Lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) of known age from 1 to 12 years were taken from Cayuga Lake in central New York State in 1991 and p,p'-DDE and mercury were determined in their flesh.
(13) DNA sequences of the ribosomal DNA (rDNA) first internal transcribed spacer region (ITS 1) of six species of the salmonid fish genus Salvelinus (alpinus, malma, confluentus, leucomaenis, fontinalis, and namaycush) and the closely related species Hucho perryi were determined.
(14) Fifteen classical linkage groups were identified in two salmonid species (Salmo trutta and Salmo gairdneri) and three fertile, interspecific hybrids (S. gairdneri X Salmo clarki, Salvelinus fontinalis X Salvelinus namaycush and S. fontinalis X Salvelinus alpinus) by backcrossing multiply heterozygous individuals.
(15) Epidemiological criteria were used to examine the influence of environmental contamination on reproductive success of lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) in the Laurentian Great Lakes.
(16) The rDNA of S. namaycush liver showed a high degree of methylation as determined by digestion with the restriction endonucleases MspI and HpaII.
(17) Three other possible topologies favor the pairing of S. namaycush and S. fontinalis, with one tree placing them on separate branches, and vary the branching order of the interior groups.

(n.) The namaycush.
Example Sentences:
