• Minimizing genetic adaptation in captive breeding programs: A review (2009, background): “Even a Chinook salmon (O. tshawytscha) supplementation hatchery program that used only natural-origin broodstock in an attempt to minimize adaptation resulted in a decrease in body size and shifts in the timing of maturation (Knudsen et al., 2006).”
• Mating success of alternative male phenotypes and evidence for frequency-dependent selection in Chinook salmon, Oncorhynchus tshawytscha (2010, background): “However, other anthropogenic forces such as size-selective harvest (Hankin and Healey 1986; Hankin et al. 2009) and hatchery rearing methods that promote high juvenile growth rates and early male maturation (e.g., Knudsen et al. 2006) should be considered as well.”
• Factors influencing the relative fitness of hatchery and wild spring Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) in the Wenatchee River, Washington, USA (2010, background): “Hatchery fish have a tendency to mature at earlier ages than wild fish (Knudsen et al. 2006; Murdoch et al. 2008), but the difference is subtle and does not explain the differences in age structure we observed.”
• Factors that contribute to the ecological risks of salmon and steelhead hatchery programs and some mitigating strategies (2009, background): “ Kostow et al. (2003) were able to demonstrate that the hatchery and wild steelhead in their study were reproductively segregated precluding genetic interactions; therefore the productivity declines demonstrated by Kostow and Zhou (2006) were due to ecological interactions.”
