Recent studies conducted by UC Davis Associate Professor Mike Miller reveal evolutionary history of imperiled salmon stocks. Using new DNA analysis
methods, researchers found that early migrating salmon  populations depend on
a single gene, and this genetic variant cannot be expected to easily re-evolve if lost. These new technologies for analyzing DNA may transform how imperiled species are considered and managed for conservation protection. These technologies can be applied to a wide range of species around the world.
