Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) genome and transcriptome. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
When unifying genomic resources among studies and comparing data between species, there is often no better resource than a genome sequence. Having a reference genome for the Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) will enable the extensive genomic ...

Characterization of mid-intestinal microbiota of farmed Chinook salmon using 16S rRNA gene metabarcoding [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2019
With the growing importance of aquaculture worldwide, characterization of the microbiota of high-value aquaculture species and identification of their shifts induced by changes in fish physiology or nutrition is of special interest.

Steller sea lion (Eumetopias jubatus) consumption of ocean age-0 Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) along the northwest coast of Washington State. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
The decline of wild Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in the Pacific Northwest is concerning due to their critical role in the culture, economy, and ecology of the region, and the endangered species status of some of the evolutionarily ...

Swimming behavior of emigrating Chinook Salmon smolts. [PDF]

PLoS One, 2022
Swimming behavior of Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) smolts affects transit time, route selection and survival in complex aquatic ecosystems. Behavior quantified at the river reach and junction scale is of particular importance for route selection and predator avoidance, though few studies have developed field-based approaches for quantifying

Subyearling Chinook salmon diets in Lower Columbia River estuarine habitats. [PDF]

PLoS ONE
The Lower Columbia River and Estuary is critical rearing habitat for juvenile Pacific salmon. Extending from the river mouth to Bonneville Dam 235 river kilometers upstream, the Estuary has been altered by dams, dikes, and habitat loss due to ...

Life History and Smoltification Shape Genomic Signatures of Thermal Tolerance in Chinook Salmon. [PDF]

Mol Ecol
ABSTRACT Temperature is a key determinant of survival and distribution in ectothermic species, but how variation in thermal resilience is influenced by developmental transitions, life‐history strategies, and their interaction with population‐specific genomic variation is poorly understood.

Characterising the Physiological Responses of Chinook Salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) Subjected to Heat and Oxygen Stress [PDF]

Biology, 2023
In New Zealand, during the hottest periods of the year, some salmon farms in the Marlborough Sounds reach water temperatures above the optimal range for Chinook salmon.

A single generation in the wild increases fitness for descendants of hatchery‐origin Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) [PDF]

Evolutionary Applications
Reintroduction is an important tool for the recovery of imperiled species. For threatened Pacific salmonids (Oncorhynchus spp.) species, hatchery‐origin (HOR) individuals from a nearby source are often used to reestablish populations in vacant ...

Genomic region associated with run timing has similar haplotypes and phenotypic effects across three lineages of Chinook salmon

Evolutionary Applications, 2021
Conserving life‐history variation is a stated goal of many management programs, but the most effective means by which to accomplish this are often far from clear.

Genomics and 20 years of sampling reveal phenotypic differences between subpopulations of outmigrating Central Valley Chinook salmon [PDF]

Evolutionary Applications
Intraspecific diversity plays a critical role in the resilience of Chinook salmon populations. California's Central Valley (CV) historically hosted one of the most diverse population complexes of Chinook salmon in the world.
