Figure 1.

X‐rays from Salmo salar individuals that received a (a) P‐sufficient diet with (b, c) higher magnifications of the central part of their spines. Vertebral bodies display a regular shape in all parts of the spine. Individuals that received P‐deficient diet (d) with (e, f) higher magnifications of the central part of their spines. All vertebral bodies are undersized and all intervertebral spaces are enlarged. No other deformities are visible. The animals shown in this figure are representative for their experimental groups. (e) Measurements presented on Fig. 3: A, vertebral body length; B, vertebral body height; C, width of the intervertebral space.
