Skeletal lipid depletion in spawning salmon
Abstract Skeletal tissues in Pacific salmon are composed of significant amounts of lipid (which serves as an energy supply), that is then depleted during migration and freshwater spawning. The vertebral centra and neurocrania of ocean prespawning pink salmon Oncorhynchus gorbuscha , although compose...
