The conservation and management of endangered species requires information on their
genetic diversity, relatedness and population structure. The main genetic markers applied …

Population genetic studies reveal biodiversity patterns and inform about drivers of
evolutionary differentiation and adaptation, including gene flow, drift and selection. This can …

Salmon were among the first nonmodel species for which systematic population genetic
studies of natural populations were conducted, often to support management and …

The genomics revolution has initiated a new era of population genetics where genome‐wide
data are frequently used to understand complex patterns of population structure and …

The expansion of salmonid aquaculture has resulted in environmental challenges, including
salmon lice that may infest both farmed and wild fish. For wild Atlantic salmon post-smolts …

A current challenge in the fields of evolutionary, ecological, and conservation genomics is
balancing production of large-scale datasets with additional training often required to handle …

Conservation units represent important components of intraspecific diversity that can aid in
prioritizing and protecting at‐risk populations, while also safeguarding unique diversity that …

The survival of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), an increasingly rare anadromous species, has
declined dramatically during its marine phase, with disproportionate impacts on the poorly …

Microsatellites (or simple sequence repeats, SSR) are widely used markers in population
genetics. Traditionally, genotyping was and still is carried out through recording fragment …

The resiliency of populations and species to environmental change is dependent on the
maintenance of genetic diversity, and as such, quantifying diversity is central to combating …
