Over the past decades, Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar, Salmonidae) has emerged as a model
system for sexual maturation research, owing to the high diversity of life history strategies …

Application of high-throughput sequencing technologies to microsatellite genotyping
(SSRseq) has been shown to remove many of the limitations of electrophoresis-based …

Genetic methods for the estimation of population size can be powerful alternatives to
conventional methods. Close‐kin mark–recapture (CKMR) is based on the principles of …

Many Atlantic salmon Salmo salar populations in Europe are threatened by previous
stocking with foreign hatchery strains. Temporal patterns of genetic characteristics of salmon …

Dispersal and shared environmental conditions can both synchronize the dynamics of local
populations, but disentangling their relative influence on dynamics is challenging. We used …

ABSTRACT Brook Trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) populations have experienced marked
declines throughout their native range and are presently threatened due to isolation in small …

Obtaining reliable estimates of the effective number of breeders (N b) and generational
effective population size (N e) for fishery‐important species is challenging because they are …

Population size is a central parameter for conservation; however, monitoring abundance is
often problematic for threatened marine species. Despite substantial investment in research …

Analytical methods that incorporate genetic data are increasingly used in monitoring and
assessment programs for important rate functions of fish populations (eg, recruitment) …

We used sibship analysis to further our understanding of Alligator Gar Atractosteus spatula
reproductive biology. Quantifying the relative contributions of spawners and spatial patterns …
