| Popis: | International audience; Recent decline in abundance of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and concomitant changes in life history may result from a decline in the growth conditions during marine migration. Available literature suggests the existence of a sex-specific reaction norm linking maturation with environmental growth conditions at sea. However, the extent to which this mechanism explains variations in age at maturity remains unclear. Using a historical collection of scales (1987–2017) from the Sélune River, France, we showed that marine growth declined over the first summer and remained stable during the subsequent periods at sea among returning salmon. Results support the hypothesis of a sex-specific probabilistic reaction norm, with individual probability to return after 1 year at sea increasing when growth increases. Females may require higher growth than males to attain their maturation threshold. This mechanism is a good candidate to explain temporal variability in sea-age at return at both the individual and population level in the Sélune population and in many other southern European populations. |
