Influence of size, winter duration and density on sexual maturation of Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar) juveniles in Little Codroy River (southwest Newfoundland)
Factors affecting sexual maturation of Atlantic salmon ( Salmo salar L.) juveniles in fresh water were analysed under wild conditions in Little Codroy River (southwest Newfoundland). Large size after the first year of life and short winters favoured maturation of age 1 + male parr. Incidence of matu...
