Abstract
A pigmentation anomaly appearing as white stripes or spots in one group of channel catfish, Ictalurus punctatus, was found to be a non-inheritable trait. We suspect, therefore, that the depigmentation was induced by environmental conditions or by a pathogen, but tests for bacterial and viral agents were negative.
