Temporal genetic stability and high effective population size despite fisheries-induced life-history trait evolution in the North Sea sole.

abstract：:Spawning success of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.) was investigated, under near-natural conditions, in the Girnock Burn, an 8-km long tributary of the River Dee in Scotland. Employing minisatellite-based DNA profiling, mating outcomes were resolved over three spawning seasons by assigning parentage to progeny sample...
