Genetic versus rearing-environment effects on phenotype: hatchery and natural rearing effects on hatchery- and wild-born coho salmon. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 With the current trends in climate and fisheries, well-designed mitigative strategies for conserving fish stocks may become increasingly necessary.

A tale of two hatcheries: Assessing bias in the hatchery process for Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) [PDF]
Aquaculture, 2014 Stock enhancement of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salarL.), a fish of considerable economic and social importance, is commonplace. Supportive-breeding is a well-recognised method of enhancement which, when compared with traditional hatchery practices, is thought to reduce the severity of selection pressures on broodstock fish.

Evaluation of fall‐seeded cover crops for grassland nesting waterfowl in eastern South Dakota
Wildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView., 2023 Cover crops are experiencing a revival among Midwestern farmers, and we assessed their attractiveness and safety for nesting ducks in South Dakota. Nest success was markedly lower in cover crops than in perennial cover during both years of our study, including 2019 which was a best‐case scenario for cover crops, with extremely wet conditions delaying ...

Details of artificial reproduction of Atlantic salmon (Semga) at the Umba fish hatchery [PDF]
BIO Web of Conferences, 2022 The world's demand for fish products for food and industrial purposes has already significantly exceeded the reproduction capacity of wild fish. Further increasing exploitation of natural fish populations leads to a sharp reduction in their numbers and ...

Potential factors affecting survival differ by run-timing and location: linear mixed-effects models of Pacific salmonids (Oncorhynchus spp.) in the Klamath River, California. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Understanding factors influencing survival of Pacific salmonids (Oncorhynchus spp.) is essential to species conservation, because drivers of mortality can vary over multiple spatial and temporal scales.

Humpback whales feed on hatchery-released juvenile salmon [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 Humpback whales are remarkable for the behavioural plasticity of their feeding tactics and the diversity of their diets. Within the last decade at hatchery release sites in Southeast Alaska, humpback whales have begun exploiting juvenile salmon, a previously undocumented prey. The anthropogenic source of these salmon and their important contribution to

Managed metapopulations: do salmon hatchery 'sources' lead to in-river 'sinks' in conservation? [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Maintaining viable populations of salmon in the wild is a primary goal for many conservation and recovery programs. The frequency and extent of connectivity among natal sources defines the demographic and genetic boundaries of a population. Yet, the role

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 ...

Species‐ and origin‐specific susceptibility to bird predation among juvenile salmonids
Ecosphere, 2023 Juvenile salmonids often experience high mortality rates during migration and bird predation is a common source of mortality. Research suggests that hatchery‐reared salmonids are more prone to predation than wild salmonids, and that Atlantic salmon ...
