Abstract excerpt
We examined associations among embryonic developmental rate (EDR) as measured by hatching time, juvenile body weight (BW) and propensity for precocial sexual maturation (PM) at two years in two sets of diallel crosses of rainbow trout produced in two spawning seasons (September and December) at both the phenotypic and genotypic levels. Dams and sires had highly significant effects on the body weight of their male...
