Description:Objective: Age of maturation in Chinook Salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha is phe- notypically plastic, influenced by both genotype and environmental factors, includ- ing the availability and composition of the diet. Salmon hatchery programs often rear fish under accelerated growth regimes using high- lipid diets that can result in earlier age at maturity, including increased prevalence of age- 2 males (minijacks). The goal of this investigation was to compare alternative dietary regimes to mitigate for this
