Changes in water temperature and oxygen: the effect of triploidy on performance and metabolism in large farmed Atlantic salmon
In salmon farming, the use of sterile triploids (3N) can mitigate the problem of escapees interbreeding with wild salmon. However, triploid salmon appear less tolerant to high water temperatures and low oxygen levels compared to diploids (2N). To investigate how the thermal performance and physiolog...
