Effects of slow release gonadotropin releasing hormone analog on milt characteristics and plasma levels of gonadal steroids in greenback flounder, Rhombosolea tapirina

Conadotropin releasing hormono analogs (GnRHa) have now been tested successfully a range of marine and freshwater species and been shown to be an effective strategy for improving milt quantity and quality (Mylonas and Zohar, 2001; Zohar and Mylonas, 2001; Lim et at, , 2002). Greenback flounder (Rhombosolea tapirina) is currently under consideration as a potential culture species in south-eastern Australia. (omitted)
