Abstract

Research has been conducted on jacking in chinook salmon, a reproductive strategy which allows males to mature sexually one year before the others from the same year class. The characterization of genetic components of this strategy has been carried out and the results demonstrate that there is a sex-linked component, Y chromosome, to jacking in chinook salmon.
