Growth and ionoregulatory ontogeny of wild and hatchery-raised juvenile pink salmon (Oncorhynchus gorbuscha)
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Juvenile pink salmon ( Oncorhynchus gorbuscha (Walbaum, 1792)) enter seawater (SW) shortly following emergence. Little is known about growth and development during this life-history stage when sensitivity to sea louse exposure may be high, an issue that is of current concern in British Columbia. We tested the hypothesis that growth and ionoregulatory development were similar in hatchery-raised (Quinsam) and wild (Glendale and One’s Point) juvenile pink salmon (measured over 22 weeks) following SW entry. Fish body mass increased from 0.20 ± 0.01 to 6.47 ± 0.37 g, with mean specific growth rates of 2.74% to 3.05% body mass·day –1 among the three groups. In all three groups, gill Na + –K + -ATPase (NKA) activity peaked at 12 µmol ADP·mg protein –1 ·h –1 following 8 weeks post-transfer to SW. Whole body Na + and Cl – concentrations, which again did not differ among groups, were highest upon initial exposure to SW (~70 mmol·kg wet mass –1 ) and declined over time as gill NKA activity increased, indicating that the hypo-osmoregulatory capacity was not fully developed following emergence and initial entry into SW. Thus, consistent with our hypothesis, few differences were observed between hatchery-raised and wild juvenile pink salmon reared under laboratory conditions. These baseline data may be important for future studies in determining the effects of sea lice on wild juvenile pink salmon.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
