“…Maternal influences on the lipid composition of eggs have been documented to reflect dietary shifts to a relatively large degree (Bell, Farndale, Bruce, Navas, & Carillo, 1997;Cahu, Cuzon, & Quazuguel, 1995;Fernández-Palacios et al, 1995). Differences in maternal dietary fatty acid profiles have elicited differential fatty acid metabolism, survival, and antipredator responses in offspring (Czesny & Dabrowski, 1998;Fuiman & Ojanguren, 2011;Fuiman & Perez, 2015). This would indicate that for steelhead trout, maternal diets and provisions to embryos could alter progeny survival through changes in fatty acid allocations.…”
