Abstract
1. 1. There was a general increase in the activities of enzymes involved in gluconeogenesis in liver and kidney of rainbow trout, Salmo gairdneri, during the second month of starvation. 2. 2. The need of gluconeogenesis during the first month of the starvation period was probably minimal because of the utilization of liver glycogen as a source of blood glucose. 3. 3. The decline of fat was more pronounced than that of protein total content in absolute values, suggesting that lipid reserves were the main sources of energy during starvation.
