Does variation in egg structure among five populations of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) influence their survival in low oxygen conditions?
Oxygen supply to the salmonid egg surface can be limited by external factors such as sedimentation and groundwater upwelling, while the egg membrane itself can impede diffusion from the egg surface to the embryo. Therefore, the structure of egg membranes could affect the rate at which embryos obtain...
