Opportunity Information: Apply for F19AS00401
The Genetic Assessment of Lahontan Cutthroat Trout Broodstock opportunity (Funding Opportunity Number F19AS00401) is a discretionary cooperative agreement issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior, Fish and Wildlife Service under the Natural Resources funding activity category (CFDA 15.678). The focus of the project is to provide specialized laboratory support to evaluate genetic assessment objectives described in an accompanying Statement of Work, with the broader conservation purpose of helping manage and maintain the genetic health of Lahontan cutthroat trout (LCT) held in captive broodstock programs.
At the core of the project is genetic monitoring and assessment using nuclear microsatellite markers. The selected recipient laboratory has already developed a set of 18 nuclear microsatellite loci specifically for Lahontan cutthroat trout, which are commonly used in fisheries genetics to examine genetic diversity, relatedness, population structure, and the risk of inbreeding. The opportunity emphasizes that within this 18-locus dataset, diagnostic markers have been established for the Pilot Peak lineage, meaning there are identified genetic signals that can be used to track and manage the genetic representation of that broodstock line. In practical terms, this kind of work supports decisions about broodstock pairing, family representation, and retention of genetic variation over time, all of which are central to avoiding genetic bottlenecks and maintaining long-term adaptive potential in conservation hatchery or captive propagation settings.
The award parameters indicate a small, targeted effort rather than a broad multi-award program. The ceiling listed is $48,117 with one expected award, and the posting notes that the recipient had already been selected at the time the opportunity was publicized. Key administrative details include a creation date of September 19, 2019 and an original closing date of September 23, 2019, reflecting a short application window consistent with a situation where a specific partner or lab capability was needed. Eligibility was listed as unrestricted (open to any type of entity), subject to any additional eligibility clarifications that may have appeared in the full notice, but the selection status confirms the award decision was already made.
Overall, the opportunity is best understood as a focused, laboratory-based genetics support project intended to strengthen conservation outcomes for Lahontan cutthroat trout by applying established microsatellite tools, including Pilot Peak diagnostic markers, to help maintain genetic diversity and guide broodstock management decisions.Apply for F19AS00401
