摘要: Abstract We evaluated an alternative to using hypodermic needles implant passive integrated transponder (PIT) tags in the body cavities of juvenile salmonids. used surgical techniques place PIT into 3,037 age-0 Atlantic salmon Salmo salar and then held fish under hatchery conditions for 9 months. Tag retention was 99.8% (six lost tags), survival 94.3% (174 died) after controlling initial mortality (0.7%). A single tagger able tag 80–100 per hour. Surgically implanting proved be a viable needles.
