Project

Effects of environmental variation on maternal life history and offspring performance in divergent brook trout populations
Brook trout populations in Cape Race, Newfoundland exhibit life history diversity akin to that observed across vertebrate groups. This project aims to examine the variation of maternal life history traits across four captive reared populations of brook trout. Offspring performance will be assessed through early life history traits in the same populations.
