Spatial and ecological structure of the sockeye salmon population Oncorhynchus nerka of Kuril Lake
Anastasia Khrustaleva
Abstract:This study examines the genetic structure of sockeye salmon populations in Kuril lake basin, focusing on the allelic frequencies of SNP loci that potentially carry an adaptive load. Our results reveal the division of sockeye salmon populations into three distinct groups: early river sockeye salmon and two groups of littoral sockeye salmon from the southern and northeastern shores of the lake. This division is supported by the genetic data, which shows that the populations are genetically distinct and have dist… Show more
