Figure 1

Differential mortality in diploid and triploid Chinook salmon. (a) percent mortality in three replicate net cages holding triploid and diploid salmon in response to a natural outbreak of bacterial kidney disease (Renibacterium salmoninarum). Diploid mortality rates were significantly lower than either triploid group (P<0.0001). (b) Mortality rates for live Vibrio anguillarum challenged and sham-injected triploid and diploid salmon over a 10-day period (significant differences are marked by *P<0.05).
