Genetic Monitoring of Brown Trout Released Into a Novel Environment: Establishment and Genetic Impact on Natural Populations Open
Translocations are carried out either unintentionally or intentionally for conservation or management reasons. In both cases, translocated populations may genetically impact natural populations via introgression. Understanding how genetic …

Monitoring genome-wide diversity over contemporary time with new indicators applied to Arctic charr populations Open
Genetic diversity is fundamental to the adaptive potential and survival of species. Although its importance has long been recognized in science, it has a history of neglect within policy, until now. The new Global Biodiversity Framework re…

New indicators for monitoring genetic diversity applied to alpine brown trout populations using whole genome sequence data Open
International policy recently adopted commitments to maintain genetic diversity in wild populations to secure their adaptive potential, including metrics to monitor temporal trends in genetic diversity – so‐called indicators. A national pr…

Range-wide and temporal genomic analyses reveal the consequences of near-extinction in Swedish moose Open
Ungulate species have experienced severe declines over the past centuries through overharvesting and habitat loss. Even if many game species have recovered thanks to strict hunting regulation, the genome-wide impacts of overharvesting are …

Effects of subpopulation extinction on effective size (Ne) of metapopulations Open
Population extinction is ubiquitous in all taxa. Such extirpations can reduce intraspecific diversity, but the extent to which genetic diversity of surviving populations are affected remains largely unclear. A key concept in this context i…

Genomic dynamics of brown trout populations released to a novel environment Open
Population translocations occur for a variety of reasons, from displacement due to climate change to human‐induced transfers. Such actions have adverse effects on genetic variation and understanding their microevolutionary consequences req…

Genomic dynamics of brown trout (Salmo trutta) populations released to a novel environment Open
Understanding the consequences of human induced translocations on natural populations requires genetic monitoring. Salmonid fishes represent a group of species experiencing several such large-scale perturbations expected to affect microevo…

Whole‐genome resequencing confirms reproductive isolation between sympatric demes of brown trout (<i>Salmo trutta</i>) detected with allozymes Open
The sympatric existence of genetically distinguishable populations of the same species remains a puzzle in ecology. Coexisting salmonid fish populations are known from over 100 freshwater lakes. Most studies of sympatric populations have u…

Whole-genome resequencing confirms reproductive isolation between sympatric demes of brown trout (Salmo trutta) detected with allozymes Open
The sympatric existence of genetically distinct populations of the same species remains a puzzle in ecology. Coexisting salmonid fish populations are known from over 100 freshwater lakes. Most studies of sympatric populations have used lim…

Exploring a Pool‐seq‐only approach for gaining population genomic insights in nonmodel species Open
Developing genomic insights is challenging in nonmodel species for which resources are often scarce and prohibitively costly. Here, we explore the potential of a recently established approach using Pool‐seq data to generate a de novo genom…

Cryptic genetic biodiversity in freshwater fish: power for detection, and genomic characterization Open
Sympatric populations represent conspecific populations that coexist in the same geographical area during at least a part of their life cycle. Such populations are of great interest in evolutionary biology, as they may represent the first …

CANCELLED: Loss of natural Baltic salmon populations can severely reduce metapopulation capacity for retaining genetic variation Open
The Atlantic salmon of the Baltic Sea is a species of high ecological importance and socioeconomic value. Historically, 94 rivers entering the Baltic Sea held wild salmon populations. Hydro-electric power plant construction during the 19th…

The Baltic Sea as a time machine for the future coastal ocean Open
Science-based, multinational management of the Baltic Sea offers lessons on amelioration of highly disturbed marine ecosystems.

Adaptation in temporally variable environments: stickleback armor in periodically breaching bar‐built estuaries Open
The evolutionary consequences of temporal variation in selection remain hotly debated. We explored these consequences by studying threespine stickleback in a set of bar‐built estuaries along the central California coast. In most years, hea…

Valuing and understanding fish populations in the Anthropocene: key questions to address Open
Research on the values of fish populations and fisheries has primarily focused on bio‐economic aspects; a more nuanced and multidimensional perspective is mostly neglected. Although a range of social aspects is increasingly being considere…
