<br />. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />squawfish, humpback chub, bony tail chub, and razorback sucker, which will <br />ensure maintenance of genetic diversity. <br /> <br />Part One of this plan will address each species as a unique genetic resource, <br /> <br /> <br />provide for the characterization of each of those resources, identify genetic <br /> <br /> <br />risks associated with management of wild, introduced, and mixed populations, <br /> <br /> <br />address areas of uncertainty with respect to management and recovery, similar <br /> <br /> <br />to those identified by Riggs (1986) for salmon and steelhead planning. <br /> <br />Part Two will address the management of hatchery broodstocks to ensure <br /> <br /> <br />maintenance of genetic integrity and diversity of hatchery stocks and their <br /> <br /> <br />progeny. <br /> <br />The broodstock plan should encompass broodstock management in context of need, <br />availability of fish, bottle-necking, inbreeding, genetic drift, maintenance of <br />population geneology, evaluation and tracking, use of wild gametes, spawning <br />procedures, and a control program to insure a genetic point of reference. <br /> <br />Task 1: Develop guidelines and parameters for the basin-wide genetic management <br /> <br /> <br />plan patterned after that developed by Riggs (1986) for steelhead and <br /> <br /> <br />salmon. <br /> <br />August 30, 1988 <br /> <br />Task 2: contract or hire the necessary genetics expertise to develop the <br />
