Abstract

The early gonadal development and sex differentiation of the mandarin fish, Siniperca scherzeri was described from hatch to the 130th day post-hatch (DPH). Primordial germ cells were observed on the just hatched fry (5.10 mm in total length (TL)) and began to protrude into the peritoneal cavity between mesonephric duct and gut. The primordial gonad, with the formation of genital ridge, developed on the 8-10th DPH (10.77-12.47 mm TL). Ovarian differentiation was identified by the presence of ovarian cavity and meiotic oocytes from the 40th DPH (29.75 mm TL). Testicular differentiation was identified by the presence of spermatogonial cells with efferent duct also from the 40th DPH. Sex differentiation of the mandarin fish was identified as gonochoristic type.

쏘가리의 생리학적 성전환을 위한 기초적인 연구로 부화 직후(평균전장: 5.10 mm)부터 부화 후 130일째(평균전장: 103.16 mm)를 대상으로 초기 생식소 발달과 성분화를 조직학적으로 조사하였다. 초기 생식소 형성시기는 부화 직후에 중신관과 장사이의 장간막에 원시생식세포가 나타났으며, 부화 후 8일째(평균전장: 10.77 mm) 초기 생식소에서는 genital ridge를 형성하는 원시 생식소 구조를 나타내었다. 부화 후 40일째(평균전장: 29.75 mm)의 생식소는 암, 수로 분화가 이루어졌다. 부화 후 50일째 (평균전장: 35.36 mm) 난소에서는 초기난모세포들이 나타나기 시작하였으며, 또한 난소에는 난소를 특징지을 수 있는 entovarian sac의 구조가 난소 중앙부분에 나타났다. 부화 후 50일째 정소에서는 정소 소관의 수도 증가하고 정원세포의 수가 점진적으로 증가하였으며, 130일째 정소에서는 정원세포의 양적 증가를 확인할 수 있었다. 이상의 결과 본 종은 초기 성분화 과정에 자성 단계를 거치지 않고 정소와 난소로 분리되는 분화형 자웅이체였다.
