Development, Growth, and Behavioral Ecology of Walleye as Influenced by Sublethal Exposure to Dietary Selenium
… that concentrations of dissolved selenium in the Cheyenne River have been higher than in other tributaries used for walleye broodstock collection the last 15 years. To determine whether selenium contributes to problems in the Lake Oahe walleye population, adult walleye were collected from three …
