Genetic structure of restored Brook Trout populations in the Southern Appalachian Mountains indicates successful reintroductions
Wildlife reintroduction is an important conservation tool for threatened species, yet identifying appropriate source populations poses a challenge....
-
Density-dependent effects of exotic brook trout on aquatic communities in mountain lakes revealed by environmental DNA and morphological taxonomy
Invasion of non-native fishes threatens freshwater biodiversity worldwide. Yet, detailed estimates of population demography for invasive species,...
-
Differences in embryo survivorship among populations of brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) under variable winter thermal regimes
The vulnerability of fish populations to climate change is driven primarily by impacts on their most vulnerable life stages. The earliest life stages...
-
A waterscape framework for the spawning and incubation habitats of brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis)
The brook char or brook trout, Salvelinus fontinalis , are widely distributed across North America including an expanse of introductions for...
-
Thermal niche and habitat use by co-occurring lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) and brook trout (S. fontinalis) in stratified lakes
Realized thermal niche and habitat use are two conceptualizations of fish habitat based on organismal performance or lake-specific ecology,...
-
Movement beyond the mean: decoupling sources of individual variation in brook trout movement across seasons
Movement is an important eco-evolutionary process that can shape population and ecosystem structure and function. Accordingly, a firm understanding...
-
Summer and autumn movement ecology of native brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) in urban headwater streams of Eastern North America
Urban streams are impacted by multiple anthropogenic environmental stressors that exert considerable pressure on resident fish populations. Species...
-
Effects of generations in captivity and elevated rearing temperature on Ontario hatchery brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) fry quality and survival
With rising environmental temperatures causing concern for the status of freshwater fishes, captive breeding programs may become increasingly...
-
Landscape and stocking effects on population genetics of Tennessee Brook Trout
Throughout their range, Brook Trout ( Salvelinus fontinalis ) occupy thousands of disjunct drainages with varying levels of disturbance, which presents...
-
Population niche width is driven by within-individual niche expansion and individual specialization in introduced brook trout in mountain lakes
The width of a population's resource-use niche is determined by individual diet breadth (“within-individual component”) and the degree of niche...
-
Use of unique brook trout spot patterns over a short duration for a mark-recapture study
Identifying individuals by their natural body markings is an excellent surrogate for artificial tags. Photo identification has been primarily tested...
-
Spatial Patterns of Synchrony in Recruitment of Trout Among Streams
Synchronous recruitment has been documented among salmonid populations in streams draining mountainous regions, and to a lesser degree in...
-
Use of stable isotopes to document lake to stream movements of brook charr Salvelinus fontinalis: a case study from southern Lake Superior
Migrations between spawning, growth and refuge habitats are critical for many fish species. Partially migratory populations of brook charr Salvelinus...
-
Rapid SNP genoty**, sex identification, and hybrid-detection in threatened bull trout
We developed new bull trout genetic markers using Restriction-site Associated DNA sequencing (RAD-seq) to improve our ability to address questions...
-
Recovery of a headwater stream population of brown trout after a fish kill in southeastern Minnesota, USA
After a complete fish kill on the 2-km-long, spring-fed headwater section of Garvin Brook, the brown trout ( Salmo trutta ) population was studied over...
-
Anadromous trout from opposite sides of the globe: biology, ocean ecology, and management of anadromous brown and cutthroat trout
Anadromous brown trout ( Salmo trutta ) in the northeastern Atlantic Ocean, and coastal cutthroat trout ( Oncorhynchus clarkii clarkii ) in the...
-
Components of Brown Trout Age-Class Density Dynamics
Brown trout population dynamics are driven by endogenous and exogenous factors acting together or interacting. Endogenous mechanisms include...
-
Evaluating the effectiveness of non-native brown trout suppression to improve native white-spotted charr stocking
The densities of existing fish populations in streams may affect salmonid stocking programs. Non-native brown trout ( Salmo trutta ) now occur in...
-
Assessing the population genetic structure of introduced rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) in the Lake Tahoe basin: implications for hybridization potential during the reintroduction of native Lahontan cutthroat trout (O. clarkii henshawi)
Hybridization with introduced or invasive species is a major threat and driver of population declines in native salmonids. The rainbow trout ( Oncorhyn...

Estimation of genetic diversity of the exotic Indian trout populations by using microsatellite markers
Rainbow trout ( Oncorhynchus mykiss ) and brown trout ( Salmo trutta fario ) are popular salmonid species that are reared for sport and recreational...
