Abstract
Colorimetric studies on the flesh of 12 diploid and triploid families of rainbow trout fed canthaxanthin have shown that triploids do not differ from diploids in average dominant wavelength and excitation purity. However, in luminosity, triploids are significantly inferior before as well as after canthaxanthin ingestion. Thus diploids and triploids show a similar ability to fix canthaxanthin. It was concluded that triploidy does not induce flesh colour changes of economic importance.
