Potential molecular mechanisms regulating developmental plasticity to temperature were investigated in Atlantic salmon embryos ( Salmo salar L.). Six orthologues of the four myogenic regulatory factors (MRFs: individually: smyf5, smyoD1a/1b/1c, smyoG and sMRF4), the master transcription factors regulating vertebrate myogenesis, were characterised at the mRNA/genomic level. In situ hybridisation was performed with specific cRNA probes to determine the expression patterns of each gene during embryonic myogenesis.
