GRADUATE STUDENT OPPORTUNITY Ecological Genetics and Mixed Stock Analysis of Rainbow Smelt Funding is available for an M.Sc. student to work at the University of Guelph cooperatively with the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and the Lake Erie commercial fishing industry to undertake an ecological genetics study and mixed stock analysis of rainbow smelt in Lake Erie. The project objectives are to: 1. genetically characterize rainbow smelt sampled from specific locations (spawning grounds and open lake fishing grounds) in the west central, central, and eastern basins of Lake Erie). 2. test whether smelt from these sampling sites represent discrete stocks which are differentiated from each other. 3. provide information related to the genetic composition of the catch from three open fishing grounds (west central, central and eastern basins) which will assist in management decisions related to how commercial fishing activity and harvest from these grounds should be managed. The project will begin in spring 1997. Interested individuals should contact: Dr. Moira M. Ferguson Axelrod 174 Department of Zoology University of Guelph Guelph, Ontario N1G 2W1 mmfergus@uoguelph.ca
