The US Fish and Wildlife Service is offering this grant for the discovery, validation, and genotyping of approximately 10,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in 200 inconnu (Stenodus leucichthys) sourced from Alaska. This grant is for the purpose of advancing fisheries management and conservation efforts for this species. Specifically, the generated SNP data will be crucial for performing mixed-stock analysis on inconnu harvested in the Hotham Inlet winter subsistence fishery, providing insights into stock contributions. Additionally, this research will describe and evaluate the genetic population structure of inconnu across Alaska, contributing essential information for informed conservation and management decisions. The project aims to provide fundamental genetic tools for sustainable resource management.

| Description: | This funding opportunity is for the discovery, validation and genotyping of approximately 10,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms, SNP, in 200 inconnu, Stenodus leucichthys, from Alaska. These SNPs will be used by the Service to address two objectives 1. perform mixed-stock analysis,MSA, on inconnu harvested in the winter subsistence fishery in the Hotham Inlet, Alaska, 2. describe and evaluate genetic population structure of inconnu throughout Alaska. |
