Sequencing improves our ability to study threatened migratory species: Genetic population assignment in California's Central Valley Chinook salmon

Abstract Effective conservation and management of migratory species requires accurate identification of unique populations, even as they mix along their migratory corridors. While telemetry has historically been used to study migratory animal movement and habitat use patterns, genomic tools are emer...
