Within the tested range of 1000 - 7000 eyed eggs/ft² gravel substrate (1.08 - 7.53 eggs/cm²), the optimum stocking density for chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) eggs in shallow matrix substrate incubators occurred at 3000 - 4000 eggs/ft². Premature fry, which predominated early emergence, showed greater variability in lipid content than...

the mode of action of PCBs and their primary metabolites on
phospholipid and glyceride biosynthesis.
The activity of sn-glycerol-3 phosphate acyltransferase...
