Postrelease exploration and stress tolerance of landlocked and anadromous Atlantic salmon and their hybrids
<p><strong>Background</strong></p> <p>We studied postrelease explorative behavior and stress tolerance of Landlocked and anadromous Atlantic salmon and their hybrids. For the research, we hybridized the Landlocked salmon of Lake Saimaa with a Baltic anadromous salmon from River Kymijoki, Southern Finland (strain originally from River Neva, Russia). These fish were hybridized in November 2017 and October 2018 in the Kainuu Fisheries Research Station, Paltamo, Kainuu, Finland (kfrs.fi).<br><br>In the data the fish are treated as four strains (column 'Strain'): <strong>1.</strong> Purebred Landlocked salmon (LLxLL), <strong>2. </strong>hybrids, where the maternal population was landlocked salmon (LLxBA), <strong>3. </strong>hybrids, where the maternal population was Baltic anadromous salmon (BAxLL) and <strong>4. </strong>purebred Baltic anadromous salmon (BAxBA).</p> <p><strong>Experiment 1. Post-release exploration</strong></p> <p>In experiment 1., consisting of two separate trials, we studied post-release exploration of the fish in four circular seminatural streams. (Datasets 'Exploration2018.csv' & 'Exploration2020.csv', see also 'Figure_1.jpg')</p> <p><strong>Experiment 2. Stress tolerance</strong></p> <p>In experiment 2. we studied the stress response and recovery of the fish (Dataset 'Stress_BernoulliData.csv', see also 'Figure_2.jpg').</p>

Data from: Overlap of spatial and temporal spawning distributions of spring and summer Chinook Salmon results in hybridization in the upper Columbia River
<p>The upper Columbia River in Washington State (main-stem and tributary habitat between McNary and Chief Joseph dams) is inhabited by two major lineages of Chinook Salmon (<i>Oncorhynchus tshawytscha</i>); endangered spring Chinook Salmon and summer Chinook Salmon which are not ESA listed. The lineages are highly genetically divergent from one another and historically spatial and temporal isolating mechanisms maintained these genetic differences. Both lineages occur in the Entiat River, a system where anthropogenic activity has changed habitat, flows, species composition, and the distribution of the two lineages over the past century. We examined the spatial and temporal overlap in spawning distributions between Entiat River spring and summer Chinook Salmon and we used genetic markers to assess the level of introgression between lineages. Redd surveys were conducted from 2003 to 2017 to describe spatial and temporal spawning patterns of both lineages. We genotyped sub-yearling juvenile Chinook Salmon captured in the Entiat River from 2009–2014 at 90 SNP loci to determine lineage and hybridization status. There was temporal overlap in spawning between lineages in several years and considerable spatial overlap in redd locations annually. Genetic analysis revealed hybridization between lineages does occur, albeit at relatively low rates (2.6% of sub-yearling juveniles genotyped). We detected hybrids each year samples were collected and they were distributed throughout the Entiat River basin. Hybridization between lineages of Chinook Salmon could result in introgression and a loss of genetic diversity between the lineages, and/or, a loss of production by ESA-listed spring Chinook Salmon. The presence of hybrids warrants concern for ESA-listed spring Chinook Salmon in both the Entiat River system and throughout the upper Columbia River basin.</p>
SNP amplicons results of 50 hybrid Chinook-Coho salmon
<p>These SNP panel results confirm the hybrid origin in 50 Chinook-Coho Salmon individuals. The SNP panel is composed of two amplicons and five diagnostic SNPs. DNA amplicons OkiOts_120255 and Oki_RAD41030 have SNP sites fixed for alternate base pairs in Chinook and Coho salmon (Beacham and Wallace 2019). The panel examined genotypes at one diagnostic position in OkiOts_120255 SNP: 113 (Reference=A, Variant=C) and four positions in Oki_RAD41030: 45 (TC), 51(CG), 195 (GA), and 198 (TG) called via Proton software Variant Caller®. The hybrid salmon were heterozygous for a Chinook and Coho haplotype at both SNP loci, confirming these as the parental species involved in the hybridization and consistent with all being F1 or higher order (F2 or back-cross) hybrid individuals. </p> <p>Beacham, T.

Mitochondrial DNA assay of 63 Chinook-Coho salmon hybrids
<p>Mitochondrial DNA sequences can identify the maternal species involved in hybridization events and provide behavioural clues of the matings. In this study, Mitochondrial DNA indicated hybrids were the offspring of female Coho salmon spawning with Chinook salmon males (all but two individuals from a reciprocal cross). This finding suggested two possible scenarios: accidental fertilization in crowded spawning grounds or heterospecific choice of mate when conspecifics were not available (e.g. differential abundance).</p>

Data from: Kokanee–sockeye salmon hybridization leads to intermediate morphology and resident life history: implications for fisheries management
Stocking programs designed to return extirpated species to their historical range have become increasingly prevalent, punctuating the need to better understand the risks posed to recipient ecosystems. Here, we investigated the genetic and biological consequences of an anadromous sockeye salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) stocking program in Skaha Lake, British Columbia, where substantial levels of hybridization/introgression with the native freshwater resident ecotype (kokanee) have been detected. We genetically-assigned 543 individuals (adult spawners, age-0 juveniles) to estimate stock proportions (pure-stock sockeye/kokanee or hybrid) between 2010 and 2017, with a subset undergoing otolith microchemistry analysis to determine migratory life history and maternal ancestry. Proportion of hybrid spawners varied from 5-20% across sampling years, while hybrid age-0 juveniles remained relatively constant (~11%). Hybrid spawners exhibited intermediate size relative to pure-stocks, with the vast majority being non-anadromous (92%) and of resident maternal ancestry (76%). Our results provide empirical support for previously hypothesized mechanisms of hybridization between O. nerka life-history forms, and underscore the importance of continued monitoring of stocking programs to quantify long-term fitness impacts of introgression and refine management strategies.
Data from: Thermal plasticity in farmed, wild and hybrid Atlantic salmon during early development: has domestication caused divergence in low temperature tolerance?
Background: In the past three decades, millions of domesticated Atlantic salmon Salmo salar L. have escaped from farms into the wild. Their offspring display reduced survival in the natural environment, which demonstrates that gene-flow is likely to have a negative effect on wild populations. However, inter-population differences in introgression of farmed salmon have been observed, and the underlying ecological mechanisms remain enigmatic. We hypothesised that domestication-driven divergence in tolerance to low temperatures during early development may contribute to lower survival of farmed salmon offspring in the wild, which in turn, may influence patterns of introgression among populations exposed to different temperature regimes. We reared the offspring of 35 families of wild, farmed and hybrid origin at three temperatures (3.9, 5.6 and 12 °C) from the onset of exogenous feeding and throughout their first summer. Thermal reaction norms for growth and survival were investigated along the gradient. Results: The main results of this study, which is based upon the analysis of juvenile salmon from five wild strains, two farmed strains and two hybrid strains, can be summarised as; (i) salmon of all origins were able to successfully initiate feeding at all temperatures and similar survival reaction norms were detected in all strains across the temperature gradient; (ii) deviating growth reaction norms were detected between strains, although this result was most likely due to an overall lack of growth in the lower temperature treatments. Conclusions: This study revealed no evidence of domesticated-driven divergence in low temperature tolerance in Atlantic salmon during early development. Although the potential interaction between low temperature and other river-specific factors cannot be excluded, our results indicate that the reduced survival of farmed offspring in the wild is not explained by farmed salmon displaying impaired abilities to initiate feeding at low temperatures. We therefore suggest that the observed inter-population patterns of introgression are not low-temperature driven and that other ecological or biological factors may explain why detection of farmed salmon in wild rivers is not synonymous with introgression. In general, our results support the literature indicating that phenotypic plasticity instead of thermal adaption has been selected for in Atlantic salmon.
Data from: Hybridization between genetically modified Atlantic salmon and wild brown trout reveals novel ecological interactions
Interspecific hybridization is a route for transgenes from genetically modified (GM) animals to invade wild populations, yet the ecological effects and potential risks that may emerge from such hybridization are unknown. Through experimental crosses, we demonstrate transmission of a growth hormone transgene via hybridization between a candidate for commercial aquaculture production, GM Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), and closely related wild brown trout (S. trutta). Transgenic hybrids were viable and grew more rapidly than transgenic salmon and other non-transgenic crosses in hatchery-like conditions. In stream mesocosms designed to more closely emulate natural conditions, transgenic hybrids appeared to express competitive dominance and suppressed the growth of transgenic and non-transgenic (wild-type) salmon by 82% and 54%, respectively. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first demonstration of environmental impacts of hybridization between a GM animal and a closely related species. These results provide empirical evidence of the first steps towards introgression of foreign transgenes into the genomes of new species and contribute to the growing evidence that transgenic animals have complex and context-specific interactions with wild populations. We suggest that interspecific hybridization be explicitly considered when assessing the environmental consequences should transgenic animals escape to nature.
Data from: Cleaner fish escape salmon farms and hybridize with local wrasse populations
The genetic impact of farmed fish escaping aquaculture is a highly debated issue. However, non-target species, such as cleaner fish used to remove sea lice from farmed fish, are rarely considered. Here we report that wild corkwing wrasse (Symphodus melops), which are transported long distances to be used as cleaner fish in salmon farms, escape and hybridize with local populations. Recently, increasing numbers of corkwing wrasse have been reported in Flatanger in Norway, north of its described distribution range, an area heavily relying on import of cleaner fish from Skagerrak. Using genetic markers identified with 2bRAD sequencing, we show that, although the Flatanger population largely is a result of a northwards range expansion, there is also evidence of considerable gene flow from southern populations in Skagerrak and Kattegat. Out of 40 corkwing wrasses sampled in Flatanger, we discovered two individuals with clear southern genotypes, one first generation hybrid, and twelve potential second-generation hybrids. In summary, we provide evidence that corkwing wrasse escape from fish farms and hybridize with local populations at the leading edge of an ongoing range expansion. Although the magnitude and significance of escapees warrants further investigation, these results should be taken in consideration in the use of translocated cleaner fish.
