Abstract
Reared 0-group turbot originating from Irish Sea stock were heavier at
a given length than wild fish due to a greater body width and body de
pth. A very high incidence (96%) of abnormal lateral line canals was n
oted in the reared fish. It is suggested that these morphometric and m
orphological differences developed during the larval stage. (C) 1997 T
