Muscle development and growth: potential implications for flesh quality in fish

Growth in fish involves the recruitment and hypertrophy of muscle fibres. Muscle recruitment is particularly important in species that reach a large ultimate body size. The number of muscle fibres recruited to reach a particular girth varies between families and strains and is influenced by environm...
