Salinity reduction benefits European eel larvae: Insights at the morphological and molecular level
Fig 2
Effect of salinity on European eel (Anguilla anguilla) larval mortality and biometry.
Mortality (A), body area (B), growth (C), oil drop utilization (D) and growth efficiency (E) from 2 to 12 days post hatch (dph) as well as occurrence of larval deformities such as spinal curvature (F), emaciation (G) and pericardial edema (H) on 12 dph. Values represent means (± SEM) among three crosses at each age and treatment. Different lower case letters represent significant statistical differences (p < 0.05).
