Photoperiod may regulate growth via leptin receptor A1 in the hypothalamus and saccus vasculosus of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)

Photoperiod is believed to regulate growth in fish, although the mechanism involved is still unclear. In this paper, we report a relationship between leptin-receptor A1 (AsLRa1), melatonin-receptor (AsMR) and photoperiod in Atlantic salmon. Atlantic salmon (mean weight 1071.70 ± 155.54 g) were reare...
