Genomic arrangement of salinity tolerance QTLs in salmonids: A comparative analysis of Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar ) with Arctic charr ( Salvelinus alpinus ) and rainbow trout ( Oncorhynchus mykiss )
Abstract Background Quantitative trait locus (QTL) studies show that variation in salinity tolerance in Arctic charr and rainbow trout has a genetic basis, even though both these species have low to moderate salinity tolerance capacities. QTL were observed to localize to homologous linkage group seg...

Abstract Background Quantitative trait locus (QTL) studies show that variation in salinity tolerance in Arctic charr and rainbow trout has a genetic basis, even though both these species have low to moderate salinity tolerance capacities.
