Dr. Ben Fitzpatrick and Rebecca Smith of The University of Tennessee Ecology and Evolutionary Biology lab will discuss Brook Trout genetics. He is working together with the Great Smoky Mountains National Park Fisheries (Matt Kulp) and our Chapter to complete Brook Trout genetic analyses on 8 Tennessee stream segments that had not been genotyped within GSMNP.
