Author(s): Garlov PE*, Bugrimov BS and Rybalova NB
The strength of the baltic population of Atlantic salmon, salmo salar in our North-western region at present is minimal and is supported mainly by Salmon-Breeding Factories (SBF). Factory producers of origin return is about 2% of the total number of released juveniles, which testifies to its low survival rate and the need to improve the biotech cultivation (Reports of the college of the RF federal fisheries agency for periods 2009-2014). The greatest waste factory juveniles occur in the final stages of the biotechnical production and especially when its release into the natural environment. It is customary to explain its lack of survival in the environment because the degrees of development and growth of juvenile fish in the river factory, reaching smoltification. It is important that the occurrence and extent of the freshwater salmon dwarf males among factory juveniles are much highe.. View More»
