The use of oxytetracycline as a marker for juvenile cod ( Gadus morhua L.)
We examine aspects of marking large numbers of juvenile cod ( Gadus morhua L.) by oxytetracycline (OTC) for cod enhancement experiments. Reared cod were given OTC through the feed and released in a fjord. Control groups were kept in net pens. A total of 93% of the cod became marked. The size of the...
