This grant is for a CESU-affiliated partner to conduct research supporting US Fish and Wildlife Services’ management needs concerning endangered species, particularly the Yaqui catfish. The primary purpose is to advance recovery efforts for threatened and endangered Yaqui catfish populations in Mexico and the U.S. Key objectives include determining if pure Yaqui catfish lineages still exist in Mexico, using genomic modeling of admixed Yaqui and channel catfish data to understand hybridization patterns, and identifying optimal Yaqui catfish populations for future captive breeding and translocation strategies. This research aims to provide critical data to inform conservation and management decisions, ensuring the long-term viability of these vulnerable species.
