Effects of temperature and salinity on comparative embryo development and mortality of Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua L.) and haddock (Melanogrammus aeglefinus (L.))
Embryos of Atlantic cod ( Gadus morhua L.) and haddock ( Melanogrammus aeglefinus (L.) were incubated from fertilization to hatching in 36 different combinations of temperature (2–12°C) and salinity (26–36 ‰). Mortality was independent of temperature for cod, while haddock had lower mortalities at i...
