Hormonal changes accompanying sexual maturation in captive milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal)
(Springer Verlag, 1992)
Steroid hormone profiles accompanying sexual maturation in captive milkfish are described. There were no significant differences in levels of serum estradiol 17-β (E<sub>2</sub>) and testosterone (T) between immature male ...
Gonadal maturation, fecundity, spawning and timing of reproduction in the mud snail, Cerithidea cingulata, a pest in milkfish ponds in the Philippines
(Taylor & Francis, 2001)
Gonadal maturation, spawning, fecundity and timing of reproduction of the snail <i>Cerithidea cingulata</i> in a brackish water pond in Molo, Iloilo, Philippines, are described. Snails 4–41 mm in shell length were sampled ...
Variation in the biochemical composition of Penaeus monodon tissues during the reproductive cycle.
(Bamidgeh, 1990)
The gonadosomatic index (GSI) and the hepatosomatic index (HSI) were determined for wild-caught, eyestalk ablated Penaeus monodon at 5 reproductive stages (I to V). Tissues of the muscle, ovary and hepatopancreas in each ...
LHRHa and pimozide-induced spawning of Asian catfish Clarias macrocephalus (Gunther) at different times during an annual reproductive cycle
(Elsevier, 1997)
Captive Clarias macrocephalus were induced to spawn during the off-season (February), before (May), during (August) and end (November) of the natural breeding period to test their seasonal responsiveness to hormone treatment, ...
Changes in the steroid hormone and vitellogenin levels during the gametogenic cycle of the giant tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon
(Elsevier, 1994)
The levels of estradiol-17β, and progesterone in the hemolymph, ovaries and hepatopancreas, in relation to the vitellogenin levels of captive female Penaeus monodon, were determined during the gametogenic cycle. Estradiol ...
Ovarian development and serum steroid hormone profiles in hatchery-bred female catfish Clarias macrocephalus (Gunther) during an annual reproductive cycle
(Japanese Society of Fisheries Science, 1997)
Ovarian development e.g. gonadosomatic index, oocyte diameter, fecundity, histology, and related steroid hormones e.g. testosterone (T), estradiol-17 β (E<sub>2</sub>), 17α, 20 β-dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (DHP), were ...
Studies on the reproductive biology of the Donkey's ear abalone, Haliotis asinina Linné
(Elsevier, 1998)
The sex ratio, initial size at sexual maturity, spawning period, time interval between successive spawnings and fecundity of the Donkey's ear abalone, Haliotis asinina were studied. The sex ratio of wild abalone (>60 ...
Sargassum studies in Currimao, Ilocos Norte, Northern Philippines I. Seasonal variations in the biomass of Sargassum carpophyllum J. Agardh, Sargassum ilicifolium (Turner) C. Agardh and Sargassum siliquosum J. Agardh (Phaeophyta, Sargassaceae)
(Walter de Gruyter, 1999)
Three species of Sargassum (S. carpophyllum, S. ilicifolium and S. siliquosum were collected each month for a period of one year from the inter- and subtidal zones of Pangil, Currimao, Ilocos Norte, The Philippines. Average ...
Induced spawning by LHRHa and pimozide in the Asian catfish Clarias macrocephalus (Gunther)
(Blackwell Publishing, 1993)
Experiments were conducted to determine the optimum dose of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogue (LHRHa) and pimozide (PIM) injected simultaneously to yield a high ovulation rate and produce sufficient eggs in ...
GABA, 5-HT and amino acids in the rotifers Brachionus plicatilis and Brachionus rotundiformis
(Elsevier, 2000)
γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) and 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT) have been shown to increase the reproduction of the Brachionus plicatilis (NH3L strain). In the present study, the endogenous presence of GABA and 5-HT in the ...
