In this study, the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) ORF1, ORF2, ORF5/6 and Cytochrome B gene regions <br />of different cutthroat trout subspecies were amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). PCR amplified mtDNA <br />fragments were cleaved with 10 restriction endonucleases (AluI, Cf6I, HaeIII, HhaI, Hinfl, HpaII, MboI, MspI, Rsal, <br />and Sau3AI). Resultant restriction fragments were separated by agarose gel electrophoresis and detected by ethidium <br />bromide staining. Forty unique restriction fragment length polymorphisms were detected which allow unique separation <br />of all cutthroat trout subspecies and some populations. These data were used to infer phylogenetic relationships of the <br />cutthroat trout subspecies. The combined use of PCR and RFLP techniques provides a rapid and nonlethal technique for <br />the identification of native cutthroat trout subspecies. <br />RESUMEN <br />Ciertas regiones del genoma mitocondrial han sido una fuente valiosa de information en el estudio de la diversidad <br />genetica en peces. En este estudio, se amplifican por medio de la reaccion en cadena de la polimerasa (PCR), ]as regiones <br />genicas ORF1, ORF2, ORF5/6, y citocromo B del ADN mitocondrial (ADN mt) de diferentes subespecies de trucha <br />garganta cortada. Los fragmentos de ADN mt amplifrcados por PCR f teron cortados con 10 endonucleasas de restriccion <br />(Alul, CfoI, HaeIII, HhaI, Hinfl, HpaII, MboI, MspI, RsaI, y Sau3AI). Los fragmentos de restriccion resultantes fueron <br />separados por electroforesis en gel de agarosa y detectados por medio de la tincidn con bromuro de etidio. Cuarenta <br />polimorfismos de longitud de los fragmentos de restriccion fueron detectados, los cuales permitieron la separaci6n de <br />todas ]as subespecies de trucha garganta cortada, como tambien de algunas poblaciones. Estos datos fueron utilizados <br />para inferir ]as relaciones filogeneticas de las subespecies de trucha garganta cortada. El use combinado de las tecnicas <br />de PCR y RFLP, proveen un procedimiento rapido y no letal para la identificacidn de subespecies nativas de trucha <br />garganta cortada. <br />GORMAN, OWEN T.*; LEON, STUART C.; MAUGHAN, O.

Research commenced in the LCR in July 1991 <br />and in January 1992 for other tributaries. Stream habitat in the lower 21 km of the LCR and the lower 8 km of other <br />tributaries has been mapped and sampled. Habitat use patterns were evaluated from seining, electrofishing, and <br />hoop netting. In the LCR, humpback chub were the predominant species and maintained a resident population. Preliminary <br />analyses indicate that adult chubs are highly habitat specific and that juvenile chub show a very different pattern of habitat <br />use. <br />RESUMEN <br />El objetivo de la investigation del USFWS es determinar el use del habitat del charalito jorobado en peligro de <br />extincidn y otros peces nativos del Pequeno Rfo Colorado (PRC) y otros tributarios del Rio Colorado en el Gran Canon, <br />evaluar el potential para el establecimiento de una segunda agregaci6n de desove del charalito jorobado, y de la <br />perspectiva de requerimiento de habitat, evaluar el impacto de la presa del Canon Glen en los peces nativos.
