If domestication does occur, If domestication does occur, we would expect… we would expect…
offspring of hatchery fish to be dominant in scramble competition
offspring of wild fish to be dominant in contest competition

PurposePurpose
Compare dominance, aggression, and growth among offspring of three different lines of Yakima basin spring Chinook salmon that vary in hatchery ancestry (contest and scramble competition)
![Page 6: The Effects of Domestication on Competitive Dominance of Juvenile Spring Chinook Salmon](https://reader033.vdocuments.mx/reader033/viewer/2022051402/5681588c550346895dc5eb44/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Three lines comparedThree lines compared
Naches (N) – offspring of adults from the Naches basin; no artificial propagation
Supplementation (S) – offspring of natural origin adults in supplemented population of the upper Yakima (“S” fish were wild in 2003 and 2004)
Hatchery (H) – offspring of hatchery origin adults in the upper Yakima (2007 begins the second generation)

MethodsMethods
Common garden experiment Experiments were conducted for 7 days in
80, 30 gallon glass aquaria Measured dominance, aggression, and
growth among paired fish (S vs N, S vs H, N vs H)

Summary - ContestSummary - Contest
Results were similar between 2003-2005 and revealed that aggression and growth were significantly higher in offspring of wild/supp than hatchery origin fish
Reversal of results in 2006 which appears to be from offspring of Hatchery line

Summary - ScrambleSummary - Scramble
Offspring of hatchery line were more dominant than offspring of S fish in 2006, but not in 2003 and 2004
Offspring of wild fish were more aggressive in scramble replicates in 2003 and 2004, but the opposite was true in 2006
hatchery origin fish lost less weight than wild origin fish in 2003 and 2004, but not in 2006

ImplicationsImplications
Significant deviations in behavior may occur among years which could result in more years to detect overall differences
Few studies have reported temporal variation in behavioral dominance (assumed constant across years) or used large numbers of parents so reported differences could be due to temporal differences or family effects

DomesticationDomestication
Raising fish in hatcheries can cause unintended behavioral changes in salmonids due to domestication selection
Change in genetics due to selection in an artificial environment; Natural selection in an artificial environment
