SFGL's Dr. Kathleen O'Malley recently interviewed with @KLCCOregon to discuss our recent paper in @EvolAppJournal on Chinook Salmon 🐟🐟
Give it a listen 👂

Hatchery origin Chinook salmon that reproduce in the wild have similar relative reproductive success as wild fish, suggesting that a single generation in the wild increases the fitness of hatchery-reared salmon.

Marine Science Day!
SFGL participated in another successful MSD at @HatfieldMSC. With over 1900 visitors, we fielded lots of great questions (Dr. O'Malley & Dr. @k_olsen_ecoevo )! Can't wait for next year April 12, 2025!

SFGL M.S. student Ben Wiley presented the key question driving his thesis research on monitoring Bull Trout at the ORAFS annual meeting!
Environmental DNA (eDNA) is often used to evaluate presence/absence, but is it effective at quantifying relative abundance of target species??
Hot off the press! Do "half pounders" return as early-, late-summer, or winter run steelhead? SFGL and ODFW found that in Oregon's Rogue River half pounders are a mixed assemblage from all three adult runs.

New paper! Leaders in salmonid research, including SFGL’s Dr. Kathleen O’Malley, collaborate in “Implications of Large-Effect Loci for Conservation: A Review and Case Study with Pacific Salmon.” https://t.co/enRCiGuAAg
Implications of Large-Effect Loci for Conservation: A Review and Case Study with Pacific Salmon. Just published in #JHered https://t.co/q8EsN4HaTy Freely available! By Robin Waples, @dpscruz @charrgirl @martykardos and a slew of Pacific fish folk.
Love researching hatchery fish? Wish you had an entire hatchery devoted to research? @OregonState is seeking a new tenured professor / Director of the Oregon Hatchery Research Center.
