Seasonal changes on gill ATPases activities of domesticated rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri ), reared under natural conditions, were studied during 1988. There is a peak in the (Na+-K+) ATPase activity between May 10th and July 13rd. The highest average activity appears during June, just before and after summer solstice (June 15th and 29th). Ca2+-, Mg2+- and HCO 3-ATPases show annual significant variations in their activities (p<0.05); nevertheless, none of them present a seasonal pattern. It seems to be that, of all implicated enzymes on ionosmotic regulation, only (Na*-K*)-ATPase shows circannual variations that can be related to preadaptative changes of the smoltification process.
