Good question Dan, why wasn't a study like this done in the first place? Wouldn't you think it would be the first study they did? I also agree with the question what effect do the hatchery smolts have on the wild ones?

Robert, If that was the case that the hatchery fish have breed with the wild fish, the gene DNA would be the same, not 2 different ones, right? There are 2 different gene pools "Wild" ones and "hatchery" ones. Here is a quote "it was really exciting to compare their DNA samples,"she said, "and find that they had remained distinctly seperate populations."

They had remained distinctly seperate populations.

Either they breed togther and have similar DNA or they don't breed and have 2 distinctly different DNA.

So I guess I haven't been clear.
