Abstract
Abstract The practice of stocking hatchery fish is coming under increasing criticism. Views that genetic integrity may be altered by the intermingling of wild and hatchery fish originating from different stocks and that hatchery fish have been genetically altered as a result of generations of selection are widely held. Past breeding and hatchery management practices have produced instances wherein hatchery fish were poorly prepared to compete in the wild.
