Polyploids can be defined as organisms with one or more additional chromosome sets with
respect to the number most frequently found in nature for a given species. Triploids …

Electrophoretic studies of proteins remain a primary source of insight into genetic diversity in
many species including the Atlantic salmon Salmo salar, one of the most culturally and …

Abstract Atlantic salmon (n= 1682) from 27 anadromous river populations and two
nonanadromous strains ranging from south‐central Maine, USA to northern Spain were …

Sixty‐four samples from 46 salmon populations totalling 2369 specimens were used for
polymerase chain reaction–restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR–RFLP) analysis …

Understanding the dual roles of demographic and selective processes in the buildup of
population divergence is one of the most challenging tasks in evolutionary biology. Here, we …

The capability of Finnish Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) broodstock breeding programmes
to maintain genetic diversity was assessed by comparing the levels of microsatellite diversity …

The genetic structure and phylogeography of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) across the Baltic
Sea basin and neighbouring areas (eastern Atlantic Ocean, North Sea, Barents Sea, White …

Historically, Finnish rivers supported vital populations of migratory salmonids. Presently,
these species are more or less endangered due to extensive damming and hydropower …

The phylogeography of north European anadromous and non-anadromous Atlantic salmon
(Salmo salar) populations was investigated using 21 nuclear (microsatellites and allozymes) …

The genetic structure and isolation pattern of the Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) throughout its
range in the Baltic Sea were examined as a starting point for a conservation strategy for the …
