Description
The genetic baseline continues to improve and was expanded with annual maintenance provided under this project. The initial baseline consisted of only fall Chinook salmon (seven populations) at a limited number of genetic markers (seven microsatellite loci), but strong improvements have been made in subsequent years. The baseline now includes 24 Columbia River Basin populations of all races of Chinook salmon at 13 microsatellite loci (Table 1; Figure 1). Much of this improvement is due to CRITFCs involvement in an effort to standardize genetic markers among genetics laboratories. The group name is Genetic Analysis of Pacific Salmonids - GAPS. The GAPS group consists of seven primary genetics labs: Alaska Department of Fish and Game (ADFG), Canadian Department of Fisheries and Oceans (CDFO), NOAA Fisheries - Northwest Fisheries Science Center (NWFSC), Washington Department of Fisheries and Wildlife (WDFW), Columbia River Inter-Tribal Fish Commission (CRITFC), Oregon State University (OSU), and NOAA Fisheries - Southwest Fisheries Science Center (SWFSC).
Project Benefit
Genetic stock identification of unknown individuals from mixture samples. Understanding the proportion of specific stocks within a fishery is critical to understaning stock-specific mortality rates and harves levels. In addition, harvest opportunities can be identified if genetic data confirms the absence of non-target stocks in a planned fishery. Funding Details |
