Growth rate correlations across life‐stages in female Atlantic salmon
Within smolt ages there was a strong negative correlation between pre‐ and post‐smolt growth in wild three‐sea‐winter female Atlantic salmon Salmo salar . This indicates that trait values providing, or resulting from, increased growth in one environment may cause growth to decrease in the other, pot...

| Summary: | Within smolt ages there was a strong negative correlation between pre‐ and post‐smolt growth in wild three‐sea‐winter female Atlantic salmon Salmo salar . This indicates that trait values providing, or resulting from, increased growth in one environment may cause growth to decrease in the other, potentially constraining growth rate evolution. |
