Effects of extended photoperiods and light intensities on growth, sexual maturation and tissue water content of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua)in sea cages / by E.A. Trippel ... [et al.]. : Fs97-6/2925E

Cover image

The objectives of the present study were to evaluate, over separate two-year periods, whether 20 and 24 h light exposure compared to natural photoperiod is sea cages will (i) increase body growth, (ii) halt or delay sexual maturation, (iii) influence investment in reproductive tissue as reflected in gonad weight, and (iv) affect seasonal levels of water content in muscle and liver tissue of Atlantic cod.
