Description
Summary:Acknowledgements For facilitating sampling of Atlantic Halibut, we thank: Bruce Chapman of the Atlantic Halibut Council, Gerry and Gary Dedrick of the Shelburne County Quota Group, Lori Baker from the Eastern Shore Fisherman’s Protective Association, Erin Caruthers and Miranda McGrath from FFAW-Unifor, Albert Moore and Dylan Buchanan and Fisheries Observers from Javitech Atlantic, and Derrick Lambert and Fisheries Observers from Seawatch, Inc. We thank Michael Kersula and the Maine Department of Marine Resources, and Esther Román-Marcotte and Jose Luis Del Rio from the Spanish Institute of Oceanography for providing Atlantic Halibut tissue samples. We thank Christopher McGuire and Jocelyn Runnebaum of The Nature Conservancy, Richard McBride from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, George Maynard of the Cape Cod Commercial Fishermen’s Alliance, and Scott Elzey from the Massachusetts Division of Marine Fisheries for additional coordination of collection of Atlantic Halibut Samples. We thank Lorraine Hamilton for organizing RAD library preparation, and the McGill University and Génome Québec Innovation Centre for genotyping RAD libraries. Sequencing of the reference genome sequence was conducted by the Vertebrate Genome Project. This research was enabled by computing resources provided by ACENet and Compute Canada. Funding Funding and support for this project was through the Ocean Frontier Institute and the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada Genomics Research and Development Initiative, as well as an NSERC Visiting Postdoctoral Fellowship.
