Western Canada kokanee salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) genotypic data for 294 tissue samples at 616 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). The dataset was created by Jacquemart, Anna and last updated on 2026-04 25. It supports the application of genomic offsets to inform freshwater fisheries management under climate change.
Use Cases
- Predicting climate vulnerability of salmon populations based on genomic offset calculations.
- Informing recreational fisheries stocking decisions using donor and recipient importance (DI/RI) analysis.
- Validating targeted genotyping panels (GT-seq) against whole genome resequencing baselines.
- Assessing translocation success probabilities for populations across a species' range.
Strengths
- Contains data for 294 tissue samples, including 288 individuals and 6 technical replicates.
- Focuses on 616 environment-associated SNPs derived from a larger genomic study.
- Specifically designed to operationalize genomic tools for fisheries management decisions.
Limitations
- Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
- Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment.
- Description metadata is limited; actual data quality requires manual inspection after download.
