Optimization of an amplicon sequencing-based microsatellite panel and protocol for stock identification and kinship inference of lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush)

This open-access peer-reviewed article describes research funded by Lake Champlain Sea Grant to develop a sequencing-based microsatellite panel for lake trout capable of resolving both population-and kin-level relationships among populations including Lake Champlain and Lake Seneca strains.
