Abstract
The lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) exhibits substantial variation in life history traits, such as growth, maturation schedule, and reproductive investment, that are critical in shaping population dynamics. This study assesses the environmental and genetic influences on lake trout life history traits and how these results could be used in making management decisions.
