Description
The Integrated Fisheries Management Plan (IFMP) summarizes the objectives, strategies and measures for managing stocks of Dolly Varden in the Inuvialuit Settlement Region (ISR) and Gwich’in Settlement Area (GSA) for long-term conservation and sustainable harvest. Among the many objectives of the IFMP, one is to estimate the contribution of individual stocks to the harvest at Herschel Island and Shingle Point in order to determine the total harvest among all known stocks. Genetic mixed-stock fishery analysis using microsatellites has been used to determine the contribution of stocks to coastal fisheries between 2011 and 2014, however due to logistical and time constraints the Department of Fisheries and Oceans (DFO) genetics laboratory (Freshwater Institute) has been unable to process samples collected from Herschel Island since 2015 or from Shingle Point collected since 2016.
DFO has an archive of Dolly Varden tissue samples collected from subsistence fisheries along the Beaufort Sea coast. DFO requires the tissue samples to be prepared and genotyped using microsatellites for use in a genetic mixed-stock fishery analysis.
The Contractor will genotype an archive of Dolly Varden tissue samples collected from Herschel Island and Shingle Point, Yukon Territory.
