We described the scale characteristics of induced hybrids between female red seabream (Pagrus major Temminck et Schlegel) and male black seabream (Acanthopagrus schlegelii Bleeker), and of their parental species. The external scalar morphology of induced hybrids showed intermediate characters compared to those of the parental species. The mean number of primary apical grooves and lateral line scales was $10.5{\pm}2.6$ and $49.5{\pm}0.5$, respectively, in induced hybrids, which also showed intermediate meristic characters compared to those of the parental species (P<0.01). The meristic characters used in this study may be useful parameters for the identification of genotypes of these seabream species.

In order to obtain basic biological data for effective seed production of the red sea bream, Pargus major, the influence of water temperature on egg development was investigated. The time of egg development was shorter with higher water temperature. The relationships between the water temperature($T\;:\;^{\circ}C$) and the required time(t : hour) from egg to each developmental stage were given as follows : 8-cell 1/t=0.0618T-0.5877(r=0.9899) Morula : 1/t=0.0284T-0.2556(r=0.9948) Kupffer's : 1/t=0.0076T-0.0829(r=0.9902) vesicle Hatching : 1/t=0.0031T-0.0350(r=0.9985) Biological minimium temperature for the egg development was estimated to be $10.2^{\circ}C$ in average.

The red seabream iridovirus (RSIV), which belongs to the iridoviridae, causes infectious fish diseases in many Asian countries, leading to considerable economic losses to the aquaculture industry. Using the yeast surface display (YSD) technique, a new experimental system was recently developed for the detection and identification of a variety of marine viruses. In this study, a coat protein gene of RSIV was synthesized based on the nucleotide sequence database and subcloned into the yeast expression vector, pCTCON2. The expression of viral coat proteins in the yeast strain, EBY100, was detected by flow cytometry and Western blot analysis. Finally, they were isolated from the yeast surface through a treatment with ${\beta}$-mercaptoethanol. The data suggests that the YSD system can be a useful method for acquiring coating proteins of marine viruses.

Interleukin-1 (IL-1) is one of the proinflammatory cytokines, after IL-1 binds to IL-1RI, IL-1RacP (interleukin-1 receptor accessory protein) joins with IL-1/IL-1RI to form a complex, and leading to cell activation. IL-1RAcP is involved in immune response, stress and apoptosis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the gene expression of IL-1RAcP in red seabream (Pagrus major) exposure to low water temperature (8℃, 33 psu) and low salinity (20℃, 10 psu). Results showed that, the expression of IL-1RAcP was significantly increased in the experiment groups, such as low water temperature (8℃, 33 psu), and low salinity (20℃, 10 psu). These results suggest that IL-1RAcP was played roles in biomarker gene on the environmental stress such as low water temperature and low salinity.

Experiments were performed to investigate hypoxia tolerance with body size of red seabream (Pagrus major) at 24℃. The rate of oxygen consumption was measured at an interval of 10 min using automated intermittent-flow respirometry. The weight-specific standard metabolic rate (SMR, mg O₂ kg^-1hr^-1) and critical oxygen saturation (S_crit, % air saturation) of the fish were measured under normoxic condition and progressive hypoxia with 0.6-786 g of fish weight (W), respectively. SMR typically decreased with increasing body weight based on SMR=351.59·W^-0.195 (r²=0.934). S_crit was higher in larger fish than those of smaller fish in the range of 17.3-24.4%. The result of this study suggests that the smaller seabream can withstand in hypoxic waters better than the larger ones.

Effects of tributyltin chloride (TBTC) in vitro on mixed function oxygenase (MFO) system on liver microsome of eight marine fish species were investigated. To determine the effects on MFO system, cytochrome P45O (CYP) and cytochrome b5 con-tents, activities of two reductases (NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase and NADPH-cy-tochrome P450 reductase) and four dealkylation enzymes (EROD, PROD, MROD and ECOD) were measured in fish microsoms exposed to TBTC for 20 min. The WP content was reduced to 10% of the control group in 6 out of 8 species exposed to TBTC, whereas there was no significant change in the cytochrome bs content. the response of NAD(P)H dependant reductases depended on fish species. The dealkylation enzyme activities in microsome were also apparently inhibited by TBTC. The degree of inhibition was different among fish species and four enzymes. The EROD activities in eight species were decreased to the range of 1∼65% of control group.

Decrease in seawater temperature during winter is one of the most important and serious issues confronted by fish net-cage aquaculture farms. This can become the cause of the manifestation of diseases and ensuing mass mortality. The present study was conducted to assess the survival rate, the range of limited low-temperature, the response of oxidative stress in the blood of red sea bream Pagrus major with decrease of water temperature. Low-lethal temperature for 7 days of P. major ($7day-LT_{50}$) was $6.54^{\circ}C$ (confidence limit: $6.31{\sim}6.71^{\circ}C$). Oxygen consumption rate was decreased with lower temperature. It showed the minimum value at the range of low-lethal temperature. Osmolality at $5^{\circ}C$ and $6^{\circ}C$ experimental group was higher significantly than control group. SOD (superoxide dismutase) activity was increased significantly at $5^{\circ}C$ experimental group compared to control group. This study data will be used to determine the appropriate area for aquaculture of red sea bream. It also manage fish net-cage farm to cope with the mass mortality occurring frequently during winter season.

This study evaluates red seabream quality using physicochemical and chemoenzymatic indices. Breaking strength was correlated with moisture content and lipid content of red seabram by a precedent experiment. Moisture content (X$_1$), lipid content (X$_2$) and breaking strength (Y) were optimized with multiple regression as, Y= -2.53539＋0.05544X$_1$-0.00161X$_2$. To test the equation, red seabream (n=13) were randomly purchased and measured moisture content, lipid content and breaking strength. The calculated breaking strength using the equation was similar to breaking strength measured using Rheo meter. Adenylate energy charge (AEC), a general biochemical index of stress, values of all sample were higher than 0.8 expect two fish. Fish's condition was a good. The equation developed in this study predicts breaking strength with moisture and lipid content measured. Moreover the equation may be used in grading cultured red seabream with calculated breaking strength. Grade according to breaking strength, when it came to over 1.4 kg, was measured as high grade; when it came to below 1.2 kg, was measured as low grade. Grade according to AEC, when it came to over 0.8, was measured as high grade.

Chemoenzymatic method was used in this study to evaluate the quality of cultured red seabrim. Level of ATP related compounds, ATPase and Adenylate energy charge (AEC) well reflected changes in condition of fish. ATP level in the muscle of exercised cultured red seabream was decreased significantly during cultured period. In contrast, the level of ADP in the muscle was increased during the period. Level of ATP related compounds in the muscle of cultured red seabream without exercise didn't show significant difference compared to the exercised group. AEC value in muscle of cultured red seabream without exercise was 0.89$\pm$0.02, while AEC value of the exercised group was 0.88$\pm$0.04. ATP and AEC levels among different size of fish did not show any significant difference. AEC value in all sample was higher than 0.8, indicating that the condition of cultured fish was healthy. Activity of Mg2$^{＋}$ (＋Ca2$^{＋}$), Mg2$^{＋}$ (-Ca2$^{＋}$) and Ca2$^{＋}$-ATPase during culture period did not change significantly, regardless of exercise. Therefore, the AEC appears to have some validity as fish health indicator.
