Abstract

Monthly changes in the gonadosomatic index (GSI) and hepatosomatic index (HSI) of wild river puffer Takifugu obscurus, and water quality environment in spawning area during breeding season were investigated from March 1995 to February 1996. Monthly changes in GSI and HSI of T. obscurus, that was cultured in low salinity, were calculated. The external morphology of the gonads, germ cell differentiation during gametogenesis and the reproductive cycle with the gonad developmental phases were investigated by histological analysis. The optimum water quality environment in Ganggyung, Choongcheongnam-do, where is spawning ground of wild T. obscurus, was $15-20^{\circ}C$ (water temperature) and 0 psu (salinity). Monthly changes in the GSI in females and males reached a maximum in May, and then rapidly decreased. Therefore, it is assumed that in the natural condition the spawning period of wild T. obscurus is May to June. In females and males, it showed a negative correlationship between the GSI and HSI. The external morphology of the gonads in female and male T. obscurus, that was cultured in low salinity, is composed of a pair of saccular structure. Based on monthly changes in the GSI, it is assumed that in female T. obscurus, that was cultured in low salinity, spawn from March through May. Therefore, it showed a negative correlationship between changes in the GSI and HSI. On the whole, in females and males, it showed a similar pattern between wild and cultured T. obscurus. The reproductive cycle with the gonad developmental phases can be classified into successive five stages in females: the early growing stage, late growing stage, mature stage, ripe and spent stage, and recovery and resting stage. In males, that can be divided into successive four stages: the growing stage, mature stage, ripe and spent stage, and recovery and resting stage. In case of wild T. obscurus, the spawning period has once a year, however, those cultured in the high water temperature ($20-27^{\circ}C$) - low salinity (under 3.3 psu) condition have reproductive characteristics having possibilities of discharge of eggs and sperms year-round as a multiple spawner.

본 연구는 황복 Takifugu obscurus를 대상으로 1995년 3월부터 1996년 2월까지 자연산 황복의 생식소중량지수(GSI), 간중량지수(HSI)의 월별 변화와 산란기 동안 산란지역의 수질환경을 조사하였다. 또한 2004년 7월부터 2005년 6월까지 육상수조에서의 저염분사육에 따른 GSI, HSI의 월별 변화를 조사하였고, 생식소의 외부 형태, 배우자 형성과정 중 생식세포 분화, 생식소발달 단계에 따른 생식주기를 광학현미경으로 연구하였다 자연산 황복의 산란장소인 충남 강경의 적정 수질환경은 수온 $15-20^{\circ}C$ 염분은 0 psu였으며, GSI 월별 변화는 암컷과 수컷에서 5월에 최대값을 보인 후 6월에 급격히 낮아져 자연상태에서 황복의 산란기는 5-6월로 추정되었다. 자연산 황복의 GSI와 HSI 사이에는 음의 상관관계를 나타내었다. 저 염분으로 사육한 황복 암컷과 수컷의 생식소 외부형태는 좌 우측에 한 쌍의 낭상구조를 이루고 있다. GSI의 월별 변화를 근거로 실내 수조에서 저염분으로 사육한 황복의 암 수 개체들은 3-5월에 산란하는 것으로 추정되었으며, 자연산과 비슷하게 GSI와 HSI 사이에는 음의 상관관계를 보였다. 생식소발달 단계에 따른 생식주기는 암컷에서 초기성장기, 후기성장기, 성숙기, 완숙 및 산란기, 회복 및 휴지기의 5단계로 구분할 수 있었고, 수컷에서는 성장기, 성숙기, 완숙 및 방정기, 회복 및 휴지기의 연속적인 4단계로 구분되었다. 황복은 자연산의 경우, 연중 한 번의 산란기를 가지나 육상 양식장에서 고수온($20-27^{\circ}C$) - 저염분(3.3 psu 이하) 조건에서 사육하면 연중 다회 산란, 방정이 가능한 생식 특성을 가진다.
