Water uptake by Atlantic salmon ova as affected by low pH

Journal Article · · Trans. Am. Fish. Soc.; (United States)
;
Fertilized ova of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) were water-hardened at pH 6.8, 5.0, 4.5, and 4.0. Water uptake was significantly decreased at 4.5 and 4.0. Ova hardened at pH 4.0 did not survive longer than 8 hours.
