Clinal variation in MHC diversity with temperature: evidence for the role of host-pathogen interaction on local adaptation in Atlantic salmonMélanie Dionne
Departement de Biologie, Universite Laval, Quebec, G1K 7P4, Canada
Evolution 61:2154-64. 2007..This study illuminates the link between selection pressure from the environment, host immune adaptation, and the large-scale genetic population structure for a nonmodel vertebrate in the wild...
Landscape genetics and hierarchical genetic structure in Atlantic salmon: the interaction of gene flow and local adaptationMélanie Dionne
Departement de Biologie, Universite Laval, Quebec, Canada G1V 0A6
Mol Ecol 17:2382-96. 2008..Overall, these results suggested that the interaction between gene flow and thermal regime adaptation mainly explained the hierarchical genetic structure observed among Atlantic salmon populations...
MHC standing genetic variation and pathogen resistance in wild Atlantic salmonMélanie Dionne
Departement de Biologie, Universite Laval, Quebec, Canada
Philos Trans R Soc Lond B Biol Sci 364:1555-65. 2009....
Mate choice for major histocompatibility complex genetic divergence as a bet-hedging strategy in the Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)Melissa L Evans
Institut de Biologie Intégrative et des Systèmes, Pavillon Charles Eugène Marchand, 1030 avenue de la Medecine, Universite Laval, Quebec, Canada
Proc Biol Sci 279:379-86. 2012..We interpret MHC-dependent mate choice for diversity as a likely bet-hedging strategy that maximizes parental fitness in the face of temporally variable and unpredictable natural selection pressures...
Does catch and release affect the mating system and individual reproductive success of wild Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar L.)?Antoine Richard
Institut de biologie intégrative et des systèmes IBIS, Pavillon Charles Eugène Marchand, Universite Laval, Quebec, QC, Canada, G1V 0A6
Mol Ecol 22:187-200. 2013..Our study expands the management toolbox of appropriate C&R practices that promote conservation of salmon populations and limit negative impacts on mating and reproductive success...
