Reproductive development of the threatened giant grouper Epinephelus lanceolatus
(Elsevier, 2019-05-02)
The giant grouper is presumed to follow the reproductive pattern of most Epinephelus species, characterized by protogynous hermaphroditism wherein male maturation is attained through sex reversal of a functional female. ...
Effect of light quality and eyestalk ablation on ovarian maturation in Penaeus monodon
Prawns were subjected to the following treatments: blue light, red light, natural light, and natural light plus unilateral eyestalk ablation. Unablated prawns under blue and natural light developed stage III ovaries; under ...
Effects of different sex ratios on maturation, fecundity and hatching rates of ablated Penaeus monodon wild stock
(Fisheries Research Society of the Philippines, 1980)
The minimum number of males per female that would still ensure high maturation, fecundity and hatching rates in Penaeus monodon broodstock, is determined. Wild stock P. monodon were stocked in 4 m diameter circular tanks ...
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 ...
Hormonal changes accompanying sexual maturation in milkfish Chanos chanos Forsskal
(Nagoya University Corporation, 1987)
In spite of the economic importance of milkfish to the Southeast Asia, relatively little information is available on its reproductive biology and physiology. Milkfish has a prolonged juvenile phase undergoes first sexual ...
Spontaneous maturation and spawning of milkfish in floating net cages
(Elsevier, 1986)
Milkfish (Chanos chanos Forsskal) reared from wild-caught fry and from hatchery-bred fry matured at 3.5-5.5 years (2.3-4.9 kg). Maturation and spawning of the hatcherybred fish marks the first time the milkfish life-cycle ...
Induced maturation and spawning in five-month-old Penaeus monodon Fabricius by eyestalk ablation
(Elsevier, 1978)
Pond-reared sugpo (Penaeus monodon Fabricius) females from coastal fry harvested after 4 months were unilaterally ablated and stocked in an indoor concrete tank with an equal number of males. The first two spawnings were ...
Induction of sex inversion in juvenile grouper, Epinephelus malabaricus, (Bloch and Schneider) by bi-weekly injections of 17 alpha-methyltestosterone
(Society for the Study of Endocrinology, Metabolism and Reproduction, University of Hong Kong, 1989)
Groupers (Family Serranidae) are protogynous hermaphrodites. Natural sex inversion of different species occurs at 2-11 years of age . The scarcity of wild mature males and the length of time to change sex underline the ...
Sea bass (Lates calcarifer Bloch) reproduction in captivity: a research update
(Asian Fisheries Society, 1994)
Recent advaces in the spontaneous and hormoneinduced breeding of caged sea bass (Lates calcarifer bloch, Family Centropomidae) are reviewed. Spontaneous spawnings follow a semilunar rhythm, with most spawings accurring in ...
Hormonal, environmental, and dietary manipulation of milkfish broodstock to enhance egg production
(International Foundation for Science, 1993)
The insufficient supply of milkfis fry severely limits the expanion of milkfish aquaculture. While natural spamning and hatchery production of milkfish fry have been attained recently, there is sitll a need to incease egg ...
