ABSTRACT Grayling (T/Iymdusthprrlfus) Hatchery in the Municipafity of Bosanska Krapa in north-western Bosnia and Herzegovina: A Sustainable Development PiIot Project by Nedzad Ajanovic A Master's Degree Project submitted to the Faculty of Environmental Design in partial Wllment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Environmental Design (Environmental Science) Faculty of Environmental Design, The University of Calgary Supervisor: Dr. Grant Ross Keywords: Bosnia and Herzegovina, Sustainable Development, Grayling, Fisheries Management, Aquaculture, Fish Hatchery, Bosanska Krupa, River Krusnica, River Una In northwestem Bosnia and Herzegovina there was widespread overharvesting of the fisheries resources before the outbreak of war in 1992. Close to four years of war in the country put even greater pressure on the fisheries, mainiy due to a lack of food and general lawlessness. In the post-war period, the practice of overharvesting continued, resulting in an extraordinary decline in fish populations. This project addresses factors that have contributed to the degradation of the fisheries resources in the rivers of the Municipality of Bosanska Krupa The project proposes that a fish hatchery for European Grayling (~ymaIZfcsthpuI2us) be developed as a sustainable development pilot project for the Municipality on the River Krusnica Besides the proposal of an environmeutally sound aquaculture facility, the project recommends a fisheries management plan that addresses the following strategies and actions: Habitat Maintenance Fish Conservation Fish-Use Allocation Education Enforcement Inventory, Monitoring and Research Improvements in Sport Fishing Regulations. ACKNOWLEDMENTS There are many individuals who have assisted me on the way in successfirlly completing this project and I am sincerely grateful for their support. Foremost, I would like to thank my Supervisor, Professor Grant Ross, for his continuous encouragement and assistance during my study. I owe thanks to Dr. Thomas Hamor for his aquaculture and fisheries management input in this project. I am thankful to Valerie Barnes, Robert Blaxely and Christopher Finley for their contextual and editorial assistance. I am especially grateful to my key informants, both in Bomia and in Canada for their extremely valuable contribution to this project I would also like to thank the support staff of the Faculty of Environmental Design, the UNOPS office in Bihac and the municipal st* in Bosanska Krupa who have always been there for me- I am thankful to the Faculty of Environmental Design and UNDPkJNPS for their financial assistance. Without it, the goals and objectives of this project could not have been achieved. Finally, I would like to thank my girfiend, Victoria Sun, for her kindness and fiiendship and my parents and family for their unconditional love. CONTENTS ...

  • Assessing Adaptive Genetic Variation for Conservation and Management of the European Grayling (Thymallus Thymallus)
    Assessing adaptive genetic variation for conservation and management of the European grayling (Thymallus thymallus) J. V. Huml PhD 2017 Assessing adaptive genetic variation for conservation and management of the European grayling (Thymallus thymallus) Jana Vanessa Huml A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Manchester Metropolitan University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2017 Faculty of Science and Engineering Manchester Metropolitan University Abstract In this PhD, functional genetic variation of European grayling (Thymallus thymallus) is assessed to inform conservation and management of the species. This study is the first to characterize immune variation at the Major Histocompatibility complex (MHC) in grayling. The MHC is a marker of high ecological relevance, because of the strong association between immunity and fitness. Taking advantage of advances in sequencing technology, an analytical pipeline optimized for high-throughput, efficient and accurate genotyping of multi-gene families in non-model species is presented. Immune genetic variation is compared to neutral marker data. Results confirm the hypothesis that neutral marker variation does not predict immune genetic variation. Further, the possible effect of supplementing wild populations with hatchery-reared fish on immune genetic variation is evaluated. Significantly lower estimates of heterozygosity were found in stocked than purely native populations. Lower differentiation at immune genes than at neutral markers are indicative of the effects of balancing selection acting upon the MHC, within purely native, but not stocked populations. Furthermore species distribution modelling is used to identify environmental parameters shaping the distribution of grayling. To evaluate risks imposed by climate change, the sensitivity of grayling to climatic variables and range changes under predicted future scenarios are assessed.

KALINOWSKI Department of Ecology, Montana State University, Post Office Box 172460, Bozeman, Montana 59717, USA Abstract.—The fluvial Arctic grayling Thymallus arcticus is restricted to less than 5% of its native range in the contiguous United States and was relisted as a category 3 candidate species under the U.S. Endangered Species Act in 2010. Although fluvial Arctic grayling of the lower Gibbon River, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, were considered to have been extirpated by 1935, anglers and biologists have continued to report catching low numbers of Arctic grayling in the river. Our goal was to determine whether a viable population of fluvial Arctic grayling persisted in the Gibbon River or whether the fish caught in the river were downstream emigrants from lacustrine populations in headwater lakes. We addressed this goal by determining relative abundances, sources, and evidence for successful spawning of Arctic grayling in the Gibbon River.

Department of the Interior Bibliographies of individual species become more convenient and more necessary as the amount of fishery literature increases. For a declining species such as the Arctic grayling, the bulk of the literature is in older works. Bibliographic references to these articles are widely scattered and many are difficult to locate; few are listed in modern fishery bibliographic sources. The bibliography includes only a few major European and Asian references. Many of the early American articles are what would now be considered semipopular.

Apiosoma piscicola, Epistylis lwoffi, Gyrodactylus derjavini were the representative ectobiont species on fish examined. Greater ectobiont richness was observed in April in Poblacnica River. Keywords: wild salmonids, ectobionts, Serbia. 1. INTRODUCTION Up to now, investigations of ectobionts, including parasitic organisms, were not accomplished on the salmonids in Serbia. Parasitic investigations have been done on fish species from eight hill- mountanious watercourses, two lakes and one salmonid fishpond of Sjenicko-Pesterska plateau (Uvac River Basin, south-west region of Serbia) (Cakic, 1992). Also, studies of freshwater fish ectoparasites in lakes of Homolje area have been performed (Nikolic and Simonovic 2002; Nikolic et al. 2006). Health condition of salmonid populations from Serbian waters, graylings above all, has become very important for the past few decades because constructing hydropower objects, reinforced catch and inadequate protection may lead to moving of distribution boundaries in Europe (Jankovic, 2010).

  • Revisiting the Mitogenomic Phylogeny of Salmoninae: New Insights Thanks to Recent Sequencing Advances
    Revisiting the mitogenomic phylogeny of Salmoninae: new insights thanks to recent sequencing advances Jose L. Horreo Department of Biodiversity and Evolutionary Biology, National Museum of Natural Sciences (CSIC), Madrid, Spain ABSTRACT The phylogeny of the Salmonidae family, the only living one of the Order Salmoni- formes, remains still unclear because of several reasons. Such reasons include insuf- ficient taxon sampling and/or DNA information. The use of complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomics) could provide some light on it, but despite the high number of mitogenomes of species belonging to this family published during last years, an integrative work containing all this information has not been done. In this work, the phylogeny of 46 Salmonidae species was inferred from their mitogenomic sequences. Results include a Bayesian molecular-dated phylogenetic tree with very high statistical support showing Coregoninae and Salmoninae as sister subfamilies, as well as several new phylogenetic relationships among species and genus of the family. All these findings contribute to improve our understanding of the Salmonidae systematics and could have consequences on related evolutionary studies, as well as highlight the importance of revisiting phylogenies with integrative studies.
