NOAA Tech Memo NMFS F/NWC-200: Snake River Chinook Salmon (cont):



Figure 5:
Dendogram showing clustering of pairwise genetic distance values (Nei 1978) computed for 21 polymorphic gene loci in chinook salmon from the Columbia River Basin. Modified from Waples et al. (1991), and based on published and unpublished data from the National Marine Fisheries Service and the Washington Department of Fisheries. Run-time designations in parentheses are SU for summer-run, FB for fall-run "Upriver bright," and FT for fall-run "tule;" others are spring run stocks. In general, clusters can be characterized by geography and run-timing; A--upper Columbia summer- and fall-run; B--Snake River fall-run; C--lower Columbia River fall-run; D--Willamette River spring-run; E--Snake River spring- and summer-run; F--upper Columbia River spring-run; G--mid-Columbia River spring-run.
