The Managed Erosion of Conservation Priorities for Pacific Salmon
ABSTRACT Conservation policies worldwide promise to halt biodiversity loss, yet implementation frequently lags intent. We examine this disconnect through wild Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.) in Canada, where sustained declines have occurred despite the federal Wild Salmon Policy and legal protections available under the Species at Risk Act.

Swimming Thrust of Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) in Relation to Selectivity of Gillnets
A significant relationship between girth at the mesh mark and fork length indicates that long sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) have more swimming thrust than short ones. This tends to confirm a speculation of Regier and Robson (J. Fish. Res.

ABSTRACT Hatcheries and stocking programmes have long been a cornerstone of fisheries management, seen as tools for fisheries enhancement and/or conservation of threatened populations. Their use draws controversy, however, from a growing body of research over the last 50 years suggesting that stocking can have negative consequences for wild stocks, and

Population structure of Asian sockeye salmon is considered by variability of 45 loci of single nucleotide polymorphism DNA (SNP) in 17 samples from its 10 major spawning grounds at Chukotka, Kamchatka, and northwestern coast of the Okhotsk Sea.

Perception of Polarized Light by Yearling Sockeye Salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka)
Food-conditioning experiments conducted in the laboratory demonstrated that groups of yearling sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) can discriminate between vertical and horizontal planes of linearly polarized light.

Effects of Heat Treatment on Agglutinin Activity in Serum of Kokanee (Oncorhynchus nerka)
Effects of heat treatment on agglutinin activity of the serum was studied using kokanee (Oncorhynchus nerka) immunized by a single intraperitoneal injection of formalin-killed Aeromonas salmonicida strain Gifu and/or of sheep red blood cells (SRBC ...

Oncorhynchus nerka population monitoring in the Sawtooth Valley Lakes
Critical habitat for endangered Snake River sockeye salmon includes five rearing lakes located in the Sawtooth Valley of central Idaho. Most of the lakes contain either introduced or endemic kokanee populations. Snake River sockeye occur naturally in Redfish Lake, and are being stocked in Redfish and Pettit Lakes.

Delineating population structure of resilient sea/river‐type sockeye salmon
Conserving wild fisheries requires identifying and monitoring distinct populations, yet prevalent genetic approaches often do not integrate habitat data and may not fully delineate these structures. This issue is critical in sea/river‐type sockeye salmon
