Whole genome analyses of the endangered Northern abalone (Haliotis kamtschatkana) reveal population differentiation and a genomic signature of a dramatic population decline

The paper uses whole genome resequencing data to analyze population differentiation and decline in Northern abalone, finding genetic structure and a signature of population decline despite previous claims of panmixia.

In-field genetic stock identification of overwintering coho salmon in the Gulf of Alaska: Evaluation of Nanopore sequencing for remote real-time deployment

The paper evaluates Nanopore sequencing for in-field genetic stock identification of coho salmon, finding it can assign stock for 50 of 80 individuals with moderate agreement with lab-based genotypes.

Genome assembly, transcriptome and SNP database for chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta)

This paper generates a reference genome and SNP database for chum salmon, identifies geographic genetic variation, and links SNPs to phenotypic sex.

The pink salmon genome: uncovering the genomic consequences of a strict two-year life-cycle

The paper analyzes the pink salmon genome to identify genomic consequences of a two-year life-cycle, finding Fst peaks and gene regions associated with temporal isolation and selection.

Loss of genetic variation and sex determination system in North American northern pike characterized by whole-genome resequencing

The paper uses whole-genome resequencing to analyze genetic diversity and sex determination system loss in northern pike across North America, finding reduced diversity and a patchwork distribution of the amhby gene.

Whole genome linkage disequilibrium and effective population size in a coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) breeding population

This paper estimates linkage disequilibrium and effective population size in coho salmon using ddRAD markers, suggesting 75,000 SNPs for association studies and an effective population size of 100 ten generations ago.

Parallel epigenetic modifications induced by hatchery rearing in a Pacific Salmon

This study identifies parallel epigenetic modifications in hatchery-reared Coho Salmon that may explain rapid fitness changes upon release, using RRBS to detect methylation differences.
