Microchimie comparative des otolithes et des écailles de saumon Atlantique (<i>Salmo salar</i>) by Matthias VIGNON, Gilles BAREILLE, Christophe PEYCHERAN, Hélène TABOURET

“…La comparaison des données issues des otolithes et des écailles nous permet de conclure que la microchimie des écailles provenant d'individus anadromes possède de très faibles performances, sans comparaison possible avec celles obtenues à l'aide des otolithes. Cette différence de performance repose principalement sur l’altération des signatures chimiques de l’écaille lors du passage en mer, se traduisant par une très forte atténuation des signatures natales. …”
