	abstract = {We have examined the health status of adult Atlantic salmon returning to the rivers As{\textcent}n, Pas-Pisue¤a, Nansa and Deva (Cantabria) during the period 1996-2002. Extreme values of hematocrit, leukocrit, haemoglobin, plasma protein and glucose were detected in some individuals, reflecting their poor health and, in some cases, their depressed immune system. The main pathogens detected in the wild populations include the bacteria  Aeromonas salmonicida, Aeromonas hydrophilla, Yersinia ruckeri  and  Photobacterium damsela e, as well as the opportunistic fungus  Saprolegnia  sp. and the internal marine parasite  Anisaki s. In general, the most depressed salmon populations were those located in the most altered watersheds; these showed in turn the poorest health condition, the highest incidence of infectious diseases, and the greatest extent of pre-spawning mortalities. We begun recently to apply molecular methods for the detection of infectious diseases, based on PCR-amplifica-tion of target pathogenic genomes. The advantages of molecular methods over traditional diagnostic techniques include greater sensitivity and faster results, as well as the possibility to carry out the analysis non-destructively, before there are any clinical symptoms of the disease. Another molecular approach we have recently undertaken is the analysis of genetic variation at the MHC. This may allow us to improve the resistance of salmon to infectious diseases in the future, which should prove useful in captive breeding programmes and in the restoration of wild populations.},

	abstract = {Dispersal in birds and mammals tends to be female-biased in monogamous species and male-biased in polygamous species. However results for other taxa, most notably fish, are equivocal. We employed molecular markers and physical tags to test the hypothesis that Atlantic salmon, a promiscuous species with intense male-male competition for access to females, displays male-biased dispersal. We found significant variation in sex ratios and in asymmetric gene flow between neighbouring salmon populations, but little or no evidence for sex-biased dispersal. We show that conditions favouring male dispersal will often be offset by those favouring female dispersal, and that spatial and temporal variation in sex ratios within a metapopulation may favour the dispersal of different sexes in source and sink habitats. Thus, our results reconcile previous discrepancies on salmonid dispersal and highlight the need to consider metapopulation dynamics and sex ratios in the study of natal dispersal of highly fecund species.

	howpublished = {PLoS ONE},
	year = {2012},
	month = {2012///},
	abstract = {The conservation of data deficient species is often hampered by inaccurate species delimitation. The galaxiid fishes Aplochiton zebra and Aplochiton taeniatus are endemic to Patagonia (and for A. zebra the Falkland Islands), where they are threatened by invasive salmonids. Conservation of Aplochiton is complicated because species identification is hampered by the presence of resident as well as migratory ecotypes that may confound morphological discrimination. We used DNA barcoding (COI, cytochrome b) and a new developed set of microsatellite markers to investigate the relationships between A. zebra and A. taeniatus and to assess their distributions and relative abundances in Chilean Patagonia and the Falkland Islands. Results from both DNA markers were 100\% congruent and revealed that phenotypic misidentification was widespread, size-dependent, and highly asymmetric. While all the genetically classified A. zebra were correctly identified as such, 74\% of A. taeniatus were incorrectly identified as A. zebra, the former species being more widespread than previously thought. Our results reveal, for the first time, the presence in sympatry of both species, not only in Chilean Patagonia, but also in the Falkland Islands, where A. taeniatus had not been previously described.  We also found evidence of asymmetric hybridisation between female A. taeniatus and male A. zebra in areas where invasive salmonids have become widespread. Given the potential consequences that species misidentification and hybridisation can have for the conservation of these endangered species, we advocate the use of molecular markers in order to reduce epistemic uncertainty.
