Variations of microsatellite loci in the sockeye salmon <i>Oncorhynchus nerka (Walhaum) </i>population of Kurilskoye lake
The results of the analysis of the interannual nuclear DNA micrisatellite locus variation level for sockeye salmon in Kurilskoye Lake for the period of 11 years (from 1989 to 2000) have been demonstrated. Analysis of the allelic frequencies for 14 loci, including Ots2, Ots3, Ots100, Ots103, Ots107, Ots108, One8, Omy77, Oki1a, Oki1b, Oki6, Oki10, Oki16, Oki29 has been provided. Temporal stability of the allelic frequencies of the microsatellite loci for analyzed period has been revealed. The results we have obtained allow to make the conclusion that mentioned system of markers can be an efficient tool in the monitoring of the pool of genes and also can be used for population identification of individuals on the base of genetic data colleted before.
