Linking vgll3 genotype and aggressive behaviour in juvenile Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar)

We tested the possibility that vgll3, a gene linked with maturation age in Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar), may be associated with behaviour by measuring aggressiveness and feeding activity in 380 juveniles with different vgll3 genotypes. Contrary to our prediction, individuals with the genotype assoc...
