fussnote Returning chum salmon (Oncorhynchus keta) in northern Honshu Island, Japan, complete gonadal maturation while in the bay. Mature fish caught in the bay failed to survive in seawater for more than a week, whereas they adapted to fresh water efficiently. Mortality in seawater seems to be due primarily to an increased plasma osmolality. Maladaptation to seawater was more pronounced in the fish caught deep in the bay than those caught outside the bay, and also greater in females than in males. In close correlation with the increased plasma osmolality and electrolyte concentrations, plasma levels of cortisol and growth hormone increased in the fish kept in seawater. Cortisol and growth hormone may be secreted in response to the increased plasma osmolality and would not be the direct cause of the maladaptation to seawater. Plasma prolactin remained low in the seawater fish, indicating that the increased secretion of prolactin, a freshwater-adapting hormone, is not the cause of maladaptation to seawater either. On the other hand, when the fish caught in the river were kept in fresh water, an increase in plasma prolactin concentrations was seen, particularly in females, whereas no significant change was seen in plasma cortisol and growth hormone. Concentrations of 17α,20β-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one in the female and of testosterone in both the male and female were extremely high in the bay fish and decreased slightly but significantly after 7 days in fresh water. The gonadal steroids may have inhibitory effects on osmoregulation in the mature salmon in seawater.
