Abstract We searched for quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting upper temperature tolerance (UTT) in crosses between the Nauyuk Lake and Fraser River strains of Arctic charr (Salvelinus alpinus) using survival analysis. Two QTL were detected by using two microsatellite markers after correcting for experiment-wide error. A comparative mapping approach localized these two QTL to homologous linkage groups containing UTT QTL in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss). Additional marginal associations were detected in several families in regions homologous to those with QTL in rainbow trout. Thus, the genes underlying UTT QTL may antedate the divergence of these two species, which occurred by ∼16 MYA. The data also indicate that one pair of homeologs (ancestrally duplicated chromosomal segments) have contained QTL in Arctic charr since the evolution of salmonids from a tetraploid ancestor 25-100 MYA. This study represents one of the first examples of comparative QTL mapping in an animal polyploid group and illustrates the fate of QTL after genome duplication and reorganization.

SummaryMaterial sampled along 11 rivers of the western part of Salix viminalis L. natural range (in Poland, Germany and Austria), as well as in stands in Sweden and Belgium, was assayed for 15 isozyme loci and cuttings were installed in two field experiments located in a nursery south of Uppsala, where growth traits were measured. These data were used to test hypotheses on the origin of Swedish populations, on the part played by rivers in the genetic differentiation and on the relative differentiation at isozyme and quantitative trait loci. Although significant, the overall population differentiation was low, the FST value being around 4%. Much higher FST values were observed between subpopulations from southern (Skåne) and central Sweden. This strong population differentiation, accompanied by significant linkage disequilibria, suggests the recent and diverse origin of Swedish populations. Degrees of differentiation between and within Polish river systems were of the same magnitude, indicating the presence of gene flow between river systems. Flow-regulated waterways, associated with higher human disturbance, may well explain why populations along rivers of the western part of the study area exhibited significant differentiation patterns while no differentiation could be detected along the less disturbed riparian habitats of eastern Poland. Finally, higher FST values were obtained for quantitative trait loci than for isozyme loci but, with two notable exceptions, their 95 % confidence intervals overlapped.
