Genomic and experimental evidence of rapid evolution in an introduced population of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) in Rocky River, Newfoundland

We characterized the presence of recent divergence in a population of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) introduced from Little Salmonier River into Rocky River, Newfoundland ~ 5 generations previously, by quantifying genomic divergence and conducting reciprocal transplant experiments. Genomic evidence b...
