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

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.

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.
