월동기 90일 동안 transgenic coho salmon의 사료섭식량, 성장도 및 혈중 호르몬 수준을 파악하였다. 실험 종료시 실험구별 사료섭식량은 비교해 볼 때 tGH구가 Wild구보다 약4배 정도 높게 나타났지만, 사료효율의 경우 오히려 tGH구가 Wild구보다 1.1 배 낮은 것을 알 수 있었다. 한편 생존률은 tGH구가 Wild구보다 높게 나타났고, 성장은 tGH구가 길이에 있어 1.4배, 무게의 경우 약 3배 빠르게 나타났으며, 비만도 역시 tGH구가 Wild구보다 높게 나타났다. 실험구별 성장에 따른 호르몬 분석 결과, GH와 thyroid hormone의 농도는 tGH구가 Wild구에 비해 약 2배 정도 높은 값을 나타냈었다. 실험구별 형태적 특징을 관찰해 본 결과, tGH구들은 Wild구와 비교해 머리가 몸에 비해 상대적으로 크면서 꼬리지느러미의 가랑이 부분이 중심선으로 위, 아래가 확연히 분리되어 있지 않았다. 또한 몸통 부분은 길이에 비해 상대적으로 체고가 높게 나타났다.

GH-transgenic coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kitsutch) juveniles in tGH＊T$_3$and tGH*PTU were fed with the diets containing 1 ug/g fish of 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine (T$_3$) and 30 ug/g fish of 6-n-propyl-2- thiouracil (PTU), respectively, to assess the effect of these drugs on the change of physiological activity, growth and survival rate in comparison with normal transgenic (tGH＊C) and nontransgenic coho salmon (Wild) for 90 days. Although the daily food intakes of all transgenic (tGH)-groups were higher than Wild, the amount was reduced by exogenous PTU supply. The fred efficiencies of tGH-groups were lower than Wild, but the efficiency was reduced both by T$_3$and PTU. The survival rate of tGH-group was significantly higher than that of Wild, but there was no significant difference among tGH-groups. Although the growth of tGH-coho salmon was faster than Wild. the growth rate of transgenic salmon was increased by exogenous T$_3$, but was reduced by PTU Plasma TT$_4$levels of tGH-groups was approximately 2-fold higher relative to Wild, but there were no difference of plasma TT$_4$levels among tGH-groups. plasma TT$_3$level or tGH-coho salmon was increased by exogenous T$_3$administration, but was reduced by exogenous PTU. In addition, although plasma GH levels of all tGH-groups were higher than that of Wild, the GH level in plasma of transgenic coho salmon was increased by exogenous T$_3$and reduced by exogenous PTU. In the meantime, the transgenic fishes also displayed head, jaw and opercular abnormalities typical of the offsets of this gene construct in coho salmon, indicating that some imbalance in growth processes has been induced. However, the abnormalities of transgenic coho salmon was reduced following exogenous PTU administration.
