Though genetic diversity is necessary for population persistence in rapidly changing environments, little is known about how climate-warming influences patterns of intra-population genetic variation. For a pink salmon population experiencing increasing temperatures, we used temporal genetic data (microsatellite = 1993, 2001, 2009; allozyme = 1979, 1981, 1983) to quantify the genetic effective population size (Ne) and genetic divergence due to differences in migration timing and to estimate whether these quantities have changed over time. We predicted that temporal trends toward earlier migration timing and a corresponding loss of phenotypic variation would decrease genetic divergence based on migration timing and Ne. We observed significant genetic divergence based on migration timing and genetic heterogeneity between early- and late-migrating fish. There was also some evidence for divergent selection between early- and late-migrating fish at circadian rhythm genes, but results varied over time.

The data are organized based on the methods used to analyze them and year. The first three sheets are the data used for estimating the effective population size - the files are in ONeSAMP format. The next three files are the data sets used to test for autocorrelation (GENALEX) and population structure (STRUCTURE) - the files are in GENALEX format. The next sheet "Allozymes" contains the raw allele frequency data that were used to calculate G"st between early and late migrating fish in 1979-1983. Each row is a different locus, the first column is the number of genotypes for each locus, and the next several columns are the observed allele frequencies at that locus. The next three sheets are the data files used to calculate G"st for the microsatellite data from 1993, 2001, 2009. The final file contain the data that were used to test for ...
