Mongolian grayling

Hochachka and Somero, 1973 Shelukhin etal, 1989). In adapting to cold, the mullet Liza sp. enhances the content of neutral lipids in the muscle by inhibiting aerobic catabolism (Soldatov, 1993). It is therefore no accident that Mongolian grayling from cold water contain more lipids than their counterparts from warmer water (Lapin and Basaanzhov, 1989). 

Marked interpopulation distinctions in characteristics such as fatness have been observed in a number of freshwater fish - silver carp, bighead, bleak, wild goldfish and mongolian grayling (Marti, 1988 Konovalov, 1989 Lapin and Basaanzhov, 1989 Lapina, 1991).
