Salmon Produce Trout Offspring

Researchers are injecting embryos from one species with cells from another species to create offspring of a desired species.

Marine biologist Goro Yoshizaki from the Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology has used the method to successfully breed trout from salmon.

The embryos they produced developed into adult trout of both sexes, capable of producing either trout sperm or eggs. These were then combined to produce healthy trout offspring.

The scientists say the technique could be used to preserve threatened species if traditional methods such as reducing fishing, breeding in captivity or restoring their habitat fail.

Sounds fishy to me.
