Fast growth was not associated with an increased incidence of soft flesh and gaping in two strains of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) grown under different environmental conditions.
We tested the hypothesis that fast growth prior to harvest increased the incidence of soft flesh and gaping in Atlantic salmon (Salmo solar L.) fillets. Growth trials were conducted at Salar, South Uist Westem Isles, Scotland and at the Gildeskal Research Station-Gifas, Northern Norway in duplicate...
