  • Population Structure of Lake-Type and River-Type Sockeye Salmon in Transboundary Rivers of Northern British Columbia
    Journal of Fish Biology (2004) 65, 389–402 doi:10.1111/j.1095-8649.2004.00457.x,availableonlineathttp://www.blackwell-synergy.com Population structure of lake-type and river-type sockeye salmon in transboundary rivers of northern British Columbia T. D. BEACHAM*, B. MC INTOSH AND C. MACC ONNACHIE Department of Fisheries and Oceans, Pacific Biological Station, Nanaimo, B. C., V9T 6N7, Canada (Received 6 October 2003, Accepted 22 April 2004) The population structure of ‘lake-type’ and ‘river-type’ sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka, primarily in transboundary rivers in northern British Columbia, was examined with a survey of microsatellite variation. Variation at 14 microsatellite loci was surveyed from c. 3000 lake-type and 3200 river-type sockeye salmon from 47 populations in six river drainages in British Columbia. The mean FST for the 14 microsatellite loci and 47 populations was 0Á068, and 0Á034 over all river-type populations. River-type sockeye salmon were more genetically diverse than lake-type sockeye salmon, with expected heterozygosity of river-type sockeye salmon 0Á72 and with an average 12Á7 alleles observed per locus, whereas expected heterozygosity of lake-type sockeye salmon was 0Á65 with and average 10Á5 alleles observed per locus. River drainage of origin was a significant unit of population structure. There was clear evidence of genetic differentiation among river-type populations of sockeye salmon from different drainages over a broad geographic range in British Columbia. # 2004 The Fisheries Society of the British Isles Key words: genetic variation; microsatellites; population structure; sockeye salmon. INTRODUCTION Sockeye salmon Oncorhynchus nerka (Walbaum) can display considerable var- iation in life history.

Rowse State of Alaska Steve Cowper, Governor The Technical Fishery Report Series was established in 1987, replacing the Technical Data Report Series. The scope of this new series has been broadened to include reports that may contain data analysis, although data oriented reports lacking substantial analysis will continue to be included. The new series maintains an emphasis on timely reporting of recently gathered information, and this may sometimes require use of data subject to minor future adjustments. Reports published in this series are generally interim, annual, or iterative rather than final reports summarizing a completed study or project. They are technically oriented and intended for use primarily by fishery professionals and technically oriented fishing industry representatives. Publications in this series have received several editorial reviews and at least one blind peer review refereed by the division's editor and have been determined to be consistent with the division's publication policies and standards.
