Abstract:
... Controlled reproduction is a requirement for developing effective mollusc cultivation for commercial or restoration purposes. In this study, a protocol for spawning induction using noninvasive methods in limpets was developed, using the common Mediterranean species, Patella caerulea Linnaeus, 1758. Six nonlethal spawning induction treatments were tested: three chemical (two concentrations of H₂O₂ ...

They were thought to be a single fish species in terms of the morphology‐based taxonomy; however, three cryptic species of grey mullet (mitotype: NWP1, NWP2 and NWP3) have been identified within the Taiwan waters. In general, the NWP2 females are known to have small body sizes with large developed ovaries regardless of ...

Brine shrimp Artemia, the most common live food organism used in larviculture, can reproduce either oviparously (production of dormant cysts) or ovoviviparously (direct production of nauplii), depending on environmental conditions. Ovoviviparous Artemia nauplii have seldom been considered as a source of live food in aquaculture, partly due to the convenience and the developed techniques associated ...
