Title: Genetic Discrimination of PWS Herring Populations

Project Year and Number: 1996: 96165

Other Fiscal Years and Numbers for this Project: 2010: 10100165-A, 1998: 98165-CLO, 1997: 97165, 1995: 95165, 1994: 94165

Principal Investigator (PI): Jim Seeb, Alaska Department of Fish & Game

Assisting Personnel: Paul Bentzen, Susan Merkouris, Jeff Olsen, Lisa Seeb, Jonathan Wright

Research Location: Prince William Sound

Restoration Category: General Restoration

Injured Resources Addressed: Pacific Herring

Abstract: The PWS herring fishery has been in catastrophic decline since 1992. The Alaska Department of Fish and Game recovery effort includes incorporating a knowledge of genetically derived population structure into harvest management. This continuing project will delineate the structure of PWS population(s) and related North Pacific populations using both nuclear and mitochondrial DNA analyses. Tests for temporal and spatial diversity within years and temporal stability across years will be done.
