Low levels of genetic variation at traditional molecular markers have hampered genetic
research within the family Acipenseridae. In an effort to develop a large set of polymorphic …

The variation at 14 microsatellite loci and one major histocompatibility complex (MHC) locus
was surveyed for over 48,000 sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka sampled from 299 …

Hybridization between distinct populations and introgression of nonnative genes can erode
fitness of native populations through outbreeding depression, either by producing a …

The populations of many native species have increased or expanded in distribution in recent
decades, sometimes with negative consequences to sympatric native species that are rarer …

Abstract The Pacific Rim population structure of sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka was
examined with a survey of microsatellite variation. Variation at 14 microsatellite loci was …

The effects of landscape features on gene flow in threatened and endangered species play
an important role in influencing the genetic structure of populations. We examined genetic …

We used radiotelemetry to assess spatial and temporal spawning distributions of native
westslope cutthroat trout (Oncorhynchus clarkii lewisi; WCT), introduced rainbow trout …

Variation at eight microsatellite loci and two linked exons of a major histocompatibility
complex (MHC) locus was surveyed in approximately 21,000 coho salmon Oncorhynchus …

Conservation of life history variation is an important consideration for many species with
trade‐offs in migratory characteristics. Many salmonid species exhibit both resident and …

Commitment to conservation-based management of exploited fish species imposes
unprecedented requirements for adaptive, real-time management of biologically and socially …
