Fig. 4

The oxygen extraction coefficient (α) at Pcrit and MMR in larger diploid and triploid Atlantic salmon. Columns in (A) are mean ± s.e.m and the asterisk indicate a significant difference between metabolic rate traits while different letters indicate a significant difference between ploidies within a metabolic rate trait (two-way ANOVA and Hold-Sidak test, P < 0.05) (n = 15). Panel (B) depicts individual α values versus PO2, showing that α decrease in hypoxia and overall is lower in the triploid group.
