Mitochondrial-Dna Nucleotide-Sequence Variation in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo-Salar), Brown Trout (Salmo-Trutta), Rainbow-Trout (Oncorhynchus-Mykiss) and Brook Trout (Salvelinus-Fontinalis) From Tasmania, Australia
The unique properties of the mitochondrial genome were used to investigate features of the population dynamics and origins of the species. No restriction site variation was found among samples of Tasmanian Atlantic salmon or among rainbow trout mitochondrial genomes. This lack of mtDNA diversity in...

The unique properties of the mitochondrial genome were used to investigate features of the population dynamics and origins of the species. No restriction site variation was found among samples of Tasmanian Atlantic salmon or among rainbow trout mitochondrial genomes. This lack of mtDNA diversity in Atlantic salmon may have been caused by a transitory, but significant, decrease in brood stock numbers in the hatchery from which the Tasmanian population was derived. Rainbow trout may have low levels of mtDNA diversity due to repeated cycles of hatchery and wild propagation in New Zealand, mainland Australia and in Tasmania. A freshwater and a sea-running population of brown trout were found to have identical mitochondrial genomes, despite the introduction to Tasmania of numerous strains of northern hemisphere fish, each of which could logically be assumed to carry its own characteristic mtDNA.
