Abstract

Concentrations of sodium and potassium were analyzed in liver tissue taken from freshwater- and seawater-adapted coho salmon smolts, and from seawater stunts. Total potassium, related to dry weight, was significantly higher in the stunts than in either the freshwater or seawater smolts. Tissue slices incubated in Ringer solution under 100% oxygen showed a similar trend, although statistical significance was only marginal. Tissue sodium was not significantly different among the three groups of fish.
