Abstract
Between-population gene flow was estimated in neighbouring freshwater and anadromous Salmo trutta populations from Asturias Northern Spain. Populations from the same drainage showed a high mean level of gene fl ow. Gene flow was also found between populations from different draina ges and was negatively related to the distance between river mouths. T he strength of the homing orientation of migratory individuals (sea tr out) is discussed.
