The influences of additive, non‐additive and maternal effects on early survival (uneyed embryo survival, eyed embryo survival, alevin survival and overall survival to first feeding) were quantified in lake trout Salvelinus namaycush using a 7 × 7 full‐factorial breeding design. Maternal effects followed by non‐additive genetic effects explained around one third of the phenotypic variance of the survival traits. Although the amount of additive genetic effects were low (
