Global assessment of extinction risk to populations of Sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 BACKGROUND: Concern about the decline of wild salmon has attracted the attention of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN). The IUCN applies quantitative criteria to assess risk of extinction and publishes its results on the Red ...

Ecological transcriptomics of lake-type and riverine sockeye salmon (
BMC Ecology, 2011 Background There are a growing number of genomes sequenced with tentative functions assigned to a large proportion of the individual genes. Model organisms in laboratory settings form the basis for the assignment of gene function, and the ecological ...

Genome‐wide analysis reveals demographic and life‐history patterns associated with habitat modification in landlocked, deep‐spawning sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) [PDF]
Ecology and Evolution, 2021 Human‐mediated habitat fragmentation in freshwater ecosystems can negatively impact genetic diversity, demography, and life history of native biota, while disrupting the behavior of species that are dependent on spatial connectivity to complete their ...

Genotyping-in-Thousands by sequencing panel development and application to inform kokanee salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) fisheries management at multiple scales. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 The ability to differentiate life history variants is vital for estimating fisheries management parameters, yet traditional survey methods can be inaccurate in mixed-stock fisheries.

Genomic signatures among Oncorhynchus nerka ecotypes to inform conservation and management of endangered Sockeye Salmon. [PDF]
Evol Appl, 2016 Conservation of life history variation is an important consideration for many species with trade‐offs in migratory characteristics. Many salmonid species exhibit both resident and migratory strategies that capitalize on benefits in freshwater and marine ...

A perspective on physiological studies supporting the provision of scientific advice for the management of Fraser River sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka). [PDF]
Conserv Physiol, 2016 Science advice based on physiology is supporting harvest decisions for sockeye salmon by providing a mechanistic understanding for in river mortality. This success is a function of political will, clarity in management objectives, and science management ...

Ontogenetic shifts in olfactory rosette morphology of the sockeye salmon, Oncorhynchus nerka. [PDF]
J Morphol, 2023 Abstract Sockeye salmon, Oncorhynchus nerka , are anadromous, semelparous fish that breed in freshwater—typically in streams, and juveniles in most populations feed in lakes for 1 or 2 years, then migrate to sea to feed for 2 or 3 additional years, before returning to their ...

Recent ecological divergence despite migration in sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka). [PDF]
Evolution, 2010 Ecological divergence may result when populations experience different selection regimes, but there is considerable discussion about the role of migration at the beginning stages of divergence before reproductive isolating mechanisms have evolved.
