Genetic and Phenetic Dynamics of Steelhead Recolonization Above Dams: Green River Study Gary Winans CB Division Jon Baker, Frank Orth Assoc. (Formerly, CB Div.)
3
We are interested in Resident fish and the potential “hybridization” of Resident trout and Anadromous Steelhead
4
Our Research Interests: Character evolution in isolated populations Non-smolting lifestyle (PSL, behavioral, & metabolic) Body and fin designs Body coloration Evolutionarily-neutral genetic markers
5
During their 90 years of isolation, REZ fish will be different…due to natural selection(non-smolting physiology, non-downstream behavior, growth, time of spawning, etc.) random genetic changes outplanting
6
NOAA is interested in mykiss populations sequestered behind dams O. mykiss is endangered under the ESA When dams are removed, what will be the role of Resident trout? Who will produce naturally occurring recruits?

Thin Plate Spline/Relative Warps Each fish is represented by a set of landmarks Each fish is compared to a consensus outline; a similarity value generated A similarity matrix is assesed by a PCA Producing the relative warps (RWs)

Further Analyses Hardy-Weinberg Disequilibrium Bootstrap D values Rare alleles F statistics Contingency tables PCA of allele frequencies MM--ontogenetic influences MM--PCA of truss-network characters
32
Resident fish above the dam are not genetically dissimilar from “Native” late-run fish below the dam Resident fish are different from hatchery fish Juvenile resident fish have different body shapes and parr mark patterns
33
Did we find a unique gene pool (a Gem) above the HH dam? Is there evidence that there is a population of ‘residualized’ steelhead above HH dam? Can we use these mSATs to recognize resident x steelhead crosses?
34
Is there a general pattern in genetic and phenetic variability in resident fish vs. downstream steelhead? Green River: (Internal Grant seed money) Elwha River: (NOAA Restoration $) Lewis River: PacifiCorp $
