Scottish Marine and Freshwater Science Vol 6 No 16: Genetic Assignment of Marine-Caught Adult Salmon at Armadale to Region of Origin

Report describing genetic assignment techniques used in order to investigate the origins of salmon satellite-tagged at Armadale on the north coast of Scotland.


Acknowledgments

We would like to thank J. Mackay, N. Mackay and crew of Armadale Salmon Fishing for catching the salmon. The satellite tagging data, and genetic samples, were collected by J. Godfrey, D. Stewart and J. Henry and J. Godfrey analysed the geographic pop-off locations. Our thanks extend to M. Kent, S. Lien and staff at the centre for integrative genetics ( CIGENE) for baseline SNP screening and to J. Sampayo and L. Stradmeyer for the DNA analysis, genotyping and QC of the adult sample data.
