The gonadosomatic index, germ cell differentiation, and the ovarian cycle in female jicon scallop, Chlamys farreri were studied by histologic and cytologic observations. In the early vitellogenic oocyte, the Golgi complex, mitochondria and rough endoplasmic reticulum were involved in the formation of lipid droplets. In the late vitellogenic oocyte, exogenous substances, namely, glycogen particles and lipid granular substances appeared in the germinal epithelium passed into the ooplasm through the microvilli of the envelope. Yolk granules and multivesicular bodies were involved in the formation of proteinecious yolk granules in the late vitellogenic oocyte. Vitellogenesis occurrs by endogenous autosynthesis and exogenous heterosynthesis. The auxiliary cells function as nutritive cells in the formation and development of the previtellogenic and early vitellogenic oocytes in their earlr stages. Monthly changes in the gonadosomatic index were closely associated with ovarian developmental phases. The reproductive cycle of this species can be classified into five stages: early active stage (January to March), late active stage (March to April), ripe stage (April to August), partially spawned stage (June to August), and spent/inactive stage (August to December). Spawning occurred from June to August, and the major spawning season was from July to August when the sea water was at high temperature.

Ultrastmctura changes of multivesicular bodies and mitochondria of oocytes of PseudopotamU- Ia occelata Moore were examined with transmission electron microscope in order to follow the process of yolk formation. Yolk granules begin to form at the previtellogenic stages of 50 $\mu$m diameter from multivesicular bodies. Small vesicles and membranous structures within the multivesicular bodies are fused to form the precursors of core bodies of yolk granules. Some vesicles from cytoplasm are also coalesced into the multivesicular bodies. Mature yolk granules are composed of electron-dense core bodies which are seperated from each other by electronopaque small vesicle-like structures. Structural changes of cristae into vesicular shapes and increase in electron density of matrix in mitochondria strongly suggested that mitochondria are in the process of transformation. The transformed mitochondria appear to be basic structures which later become multivesicular bodies.

Vitellogenesis during oogenesis, reproductive cycle and first sexual maturity of the female Neptunea (Barbitonia) arthritica cumingii was investigated by light and electron microscope observations. In the early vitellogenic oocyte, the Golgi complex and mitochondria were involved in the formation of lipid droplets and yolk granules. In late vitellogenic oocytes, the rough endoplasmic reticulum and multivesicular bodies were involved in the formation of proteid yolk granules in the cytoplasm. A mature yolk granule was composed of three components: main body(central core), superficial layer, and the limiting membrane. The spawning season was between May and August and the main spawning occurred between June and July when the seawater temperature rose to approximately $18{\sim}23^{\circ}C$. The female reproductive cycle can be classified into five successive stages: early active stage(September to October), late active stage(November to February), ripe stage(February to June), partially spawned stage(May to August), and recovery stage(June to August). The rate of individuals reaching the first sexual maturity was 53.1% in females of 51.0 to 60.9mm in shell height, and 100% in those over 61.0mm.

This study was conducted to study the reproductive cycle in female fusilier, Caesio diagramma by using the histological methods. Histological changes of the ovary were well correlated with the patterns of gonadosomatic index (GSI) and hepatosomatic index (HSI). GSI was increased in April as the value of HSI increase and reached to its maximum in May and June. Oocytes at the chromatin-nucleolus and peri-nucleolus stages were observed in the ovary throughout the year. In April, oocytes containing yolk appeared in ovaries of a few fishes. Most oocytes appearing in May and June belonged to the tertiary yolk stage. Frequency of oocytes appearance at the tertiary yolk stage in May and June was higher than that of the other months. Moreover, the empty follicles and atretic oocytes were observed in the ovaries with many vitellogenic oocytes during these two months. Thereafter, oocytes of the yolk stage disappeared in September. The spawning period of C. diagramma is from the month of April to June, and this species belongs to an asynchronous and multiple spawner.

1992년 1월부터 12월까지 1년간에 걸쳐 전북 군산, 선연리 조하애에서 채집된 개량조개, Mactra chinensis Philippi를 대상으로 생식세포 발달과 생식소 발달양상을 조사하기 위해 토과형 전자현미경으로 미세구조 변활르 관찰하였고, 정확한 산란기를 규명하기 위해 조직학적으로 생식주기를 조사하였다. 개량조개는 장웅이체이다. 난황형성과정은 난모세포의 발달정도에 따라 다르게 나타나고 있다. 전난황형성기 난모세포질 내에서는 핵주변 구여게 골지장치와 수많은 공포들 및 미토콘드리아들이 출현하고 있는데 이들은 차후, 지방적 형성에 관여한다. 난황형성전기 난모세포에서는 지방적 및 지질과립들이 핵막 근처에서 출현하여 피질층쪽으로 분산되는 반면, 같은 발달단계의 난모세포질의 피질구역에서는 피질과립들 (단백질성 난황과립)이 처음으로 생성되어 난황막 근처의 피질층에서 핵주변 구역쪽으로 분산 분포된다. 난황형성후기 난모세포에서는 세포질 내의 골지장치, 공포, 미토콘드리아, 그리고 조면소포체들이 자율합성에 의해 난황과립 형성에 관영하고 있다. 반면, 외인성 물질들인 지질형태의 과립들, 단백질성 물질 및 다량의 글리코겐 입자들이 생식상피 낸에서 출현하고 있는데, 이들 물질이 생식상피에서 난황막 구조물인 미세융모를 통해 난황형성 후기 난모세포의 난질 내로 통과해 들어가는 현상이 관찰되었다. 이와 같은 현상은 난황성성이 일어날 때에 hterosynthesis가 일어나고 있음을 시사한다. 완숙난모세포의 난경은 약 50-60 \mu m이고, 완숙정자 두부의 길이는 대략 3 \mu m이며, 미부의 길이는 약 30 \mu m정도이다. 정자 미부편모의 axoneme은 중앙의 2개의 미세소관(microtubule)과 주변에 위치한 9개의 2중 미세소관 (microtubule)으로 구성되어 있다. 본 종의 산란기는 5월에서 9월 중순에 걸쳐 일어나는데, 주산란시기는 해수수온이 22 \circ C 이상으로 상승하는 6, 7월이다. 따라서 1년에 산란 (번식)시기가 한번 일어나고 있음을 알 수 있다. 생식 주기는 초기활성기 (1-2월), 후기활성기 (2-4월), 완숙기 (4-9월), 산란기 (5-9월) 그리고 퇴화 및 비솰성기 (6-12월)의 연속적인 5단계로 구분할 수 있었다. 재생산에 가담할 수 있는 암, 수개체들의 군성숙도(%)를 조직학적으로 조사한 결과, 각장 3.5-3.9cm 범위의 개체는 55.5%이었고, 5cm 이사인 개체들은 재생산에 100% 참여하였다. 본 종의 암, 수개체들은 만 1년부터 재생산에 가담하는 것으로 추정된다.

A histological study on the egg envelope and oogenesis of Gobiobotia brevibarba (Pisces, Cyprinidae) was carried out by a light microscope and a scanning electron microscope. Various developmental cells appeared in the ovary caught during May 2014, spawning season. For the relative area of oocyte, the ovary consisted of mature stage (74.5%), a vitellogenic stage (yolk granule stage, 16.6% and yolk vesicle stage, 6.6%) and previtellogenic stage (perinucleolus stage 2.2%), which means its spawning season. The cytoplasm of the perinucleolus oocyte is acidic and many nucleoli are located at the inner side of the nuclear membrane. The yolk vesicles, an early vitellogenic stage, has a follicular layer and a zona radiata clearly. Numerous villi, called an egg envelope, begin to form on the zona radiata. The yolk granules, an another vitellogenic stage, proceeds and they show a strong eosinophilic nature. Such yolk granules appeared between the yolk vesicles occupying most cytoplasm, and as the stage proceeds, there are some yolk masses fused with each other. Egg envelope is covered with plenty of villi ($2{\sim}3{\mu}m$ in the length) over the entire egg surface.

Gonadosomatic index (GSI), oogenesis and reproductive cycle of Glossaulax didyma were investigated by the cytological histological obserbations and morphometric data. Samples were collected monthly from the intertidal zone of Biin Bay, Seocheon, Korea, for one year. Monthly variations in the GSI showed similar patterns with gonadal development. In the early vitellogenic oocyte, the Golgi complex and mitochondria were invovled in the formation of lipid droplet and yolk precursor. In the late vitellogenic oocytes, the rough endoplasmic reticulum and multivesicular bodies were involved in the formation of profeid yolk granules in the cytoplasm. A mature yolk granule was composed of three components: main body (central core), superficial layer, and the limiting membrane. The spawning season was from early June to late August, and the main spawning occurred between July and August when the seawater temperature was above $19^{\circ}C$. The female reproductive cycle can be classified into five successive stages: early active stage (December to February), late active stage (February to March), ripe stage (April to July), spawning stage (June to August), recovery stage (August to November). Fully mature oocytes were approximately $250-270{\mu}m$ in diameter.

Kribensis, Pelvicachromis pulcher is a teleost belonging to Cichlidae. The oogenesis was investigated by light microscope. The ovary was located between intestine and air bladder, a yellowish and ellipsoidal shape with the major axis 20mm and the minor axis 5 mm. Cytoplasm of oogonia in early stage was basophilic and many nucleoli were located at inside of nuclear membrane. In primary oocytes, yolk vesicles were distributed only in the marginal area and egg envelope was not formed on the outside of an egg. In secondary oocytes, the egg envelope was formed and yolk vesicles in the cytoplasm were increased than the earlier stage. The basophilic substance of cytoplasm was changed to acidic. Some yolk vesicles started forming small yolk mass except the surrounding nucleus. In case of matured egg, size of egg were increased. The yolk vesicles were changed to yolk mass in accordance with development. The yolk mass contained crystal-like structures. In conclusion, the oogenesis of Pelvicachromis pulcher was summarized by the increase in cell size, the formation and the accumulation of yolk, and the decrease of basophilic substance in the cytoplasm. The oogenesis of Coreoleuciscus splendidus is similar with other teleost. But there were differences in distribution of yolk vesicle and yolk mass containing cristal-like structures.
