Oncorhynchus mykiss Genome sequencing
Here we investigate the genetic basis for the propensity to migrate in wild populations of rainbow and steelhead trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) by conducting GWAS using RAD tag SNPs. Wild samples were collected from the upper Yakima River, WA, U.S.A. and Mann Creek, ID, U.S.A.  Samples were determined to be either migratory or resident based on behavioral, morphological, and physiological metrics.
