Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract We undertook a common garden experiment in the Burrishoole catchment, western Ireland, to test for heritable life‐history differences among neighboring brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) populations that exhibit neutral genetic divergence. Experimental crosses were made using either local females (obtained from a below‐waterfalls section of the ...
