Vitenskapelig sammendrag
This project aims to investigate individual mating success, breeding system, small-scale spatial and temporal population structure and the heritability of growth of stream-living brown trout. The aims of the project will be met by a combination of field studies and population-genetic methods, aided by newly developed statistical methods and software. The study organisms form a natural population of brown trout living in a small stream where migration is limited. This project is a continuation of a study of brown trout life history variation in small streams. Also this study was individual-based and gave insight into how life-history traits are shaped by a number of density-dependet and density-independent factors. Some key publications can be found here.
