Effect of Commercially Available Egg Cures on the Survival of Juvenile Salmonids
Figure 2
Juvenile spring Chinook parr and smolt mortality.
Juvenile juvenile spring Chinook parr or smolts were fed for 23 d with pellets, salmon eggs (- control), or salmon eggs cured with 1 of 4 or 5 commercially available cures. Bars represent the mean % mortality for three replicate tanks (N = 55 fish per tank). A value of 0 represents treatments that had no mortality in all three tanks. NT = Not Tested. *Significantly different from the group fed pellets (P<0.05).
