Evaluating the Potential Fitness Effects of Chinook Salmon (<i>Oncorhynchus tshawytscha</i>) Aquaculture Using Non-Invasive Population Genomic Analyses of MHC Nucleotide Substitution Spectra

Evaluating the Potential Fitness Effects of Chinook Salmon (<i>Oncorhynchus tshawytscha</i>) Aquaculture Using Non-Invasive Population Genomic Analyses of MHC Nucleotide Substitution Spectra

Genetic diversity plays a vital role in the adaptability of salmon to changing environmental conditions that can introduce new selective pressures on populations. Variability among local subpopulations may increase the chance that certain advantageous genes are passed down to future generations to m...
