a Vitellogenin concentrations in blood plasma samples of rainbow trout exposed in 2013 and 2014 at the bypass stations; means and SD are shown. Analyzed by Biosense rainbow trout vitellogenin ELISA kit. N-numbers 2013 females: negative control n = 9, Argen n = 8, Schussen n = 4; males: negative control n = 1, Argen n = 5, Schussen n = 9. No significant differences with Steel–Dwass test; p > 0.05. N-numbers 2014 females: negative control n = 6, Argen n = 8, Schussen n = 6; males: negative control n = 13, Argen n = 1, Schussen n = 16. No significant differences with Steel–Dwass test; p > 0.05. No significant differences between years; p > 0.05. b Values of a relative to negative control. Neg. control was set to 100 %
