4 For small populations, recovery potential and colonization/invasion potential depend on the pattern of density dependence and on r max
5 For small populations, recovery potential and colonization/invasion potential depend on the pattern of density dependence and on r max r max Maximum per capita rate of population growth Negative, linear density dependence (compensation) r realised (dn/ndt) General Population Biology: Fisheries Population Biology: Allee Effect Depensation N (abundance)

7 Ecology and Evolution of Fishes: Natural Selection Colonisation of new and existing habitat Different environments create opportunities for differential selection pressures

10 126,000 years ago
11 Land Height Increasing Land Height Decreasing
12 Unfished population of Atlantic cod colonised ~5,000 years ago Ne ~ 100 s of individuals (Hardie et al.,2006 CJFAS) Ogac Lake, Baffin Island Ogac Lake (July 2003/2004)
13 Introductions, stocking, and aquaculture can facilitate similar colonisation opportunities across considerably greater geographical scales but over much shorter periods of time. Natural environmental change has produced countless opportunities for species to colonise new habitats. When we study fish in nature, is natural selection truly the norm?
14 Brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis)
15 Country-to-country transfers ( ) Brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) Key condition for persistence of introduced species: evolutionary change by the colonising population in response to novel selection pressures. Data sources: Lever (1996); Jansson (2013); Froese & Pauly (2013)
16 Unanticipated Insights: Introductions, Ecology, and Evolution Local Adaptation
17 Individuals from local/home populations have 20% higher fitness than foreign members of the same species Stocking of conspecifics: comparing home vs away populations Local populations outperform foreign populations in home environments Survival is higher in home than away environments

19 Unanticipated Insights: Introductions, Ecology, and Evolution Local Adaptation: Natural Selection Against Hybridisation
20 Westslope cutthroat trout (Salmo clarki lewisi) Introduction/stocking of rainbow trout has resulted in hybridisation frequencies that threaten the persistence of native westslope cutthroat trout Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

54 natural mortality natural mortality at maturity (M) (M mat ) High natural mortality (M) is generally associated with early age at maturity, short generation time, brief lifespan i.e., high r max p = not not recovered (n=16) recovered (n=39)
