본 연구는 온도 변화에 따른 해산송사리, Oryzias dancena의 마취 효과 및 생리적 스트레스 반응을 평가하고, 고온 및 저온에서 최적의 마취 수온을 구명하였다. 해산송사리에서 고온 실험($36{\sim}42^{\circ}C$)과 저온 실험($4{\sim}10^{\circ}C$)을 통해 마취 효과를 조사하였으며, 각 마취수온에서 전어체의 cortisol과 glucose를 측정하였다. 각 수온 마취 실험 후, 전개체는 모두 생존하였으며, 해산송사리의 마취시간은 고온 실험에서 고온 일수록, 저온 실험에서는 저온 일수록 유의적으로 빨랐다(P<0.05). 회복 시간은 유의하게 고온 실험에서 수온이 감소할수록, 저온 실험에서는 수온이 증가할수록 유의적으로 느렸다(P<0.05). 아가미 운동수는, 고온 실험에서 수온이 증가함에 따라 빨랐으며, 저온 실험에서는 수온이 감소할때 빨랐다(P<0.05). 수온이 $38^{\circ}C$ 나 $8^{\circ}C$ 일때의 마취 조건에서 실험직후 전어체 cortisol이 최대치로, 실험후 6시간까지 점진적으로 감소한 반면, 전어체 glucose는 실험후 1시간에 최고치를 보이고 실험후 2시간까지는 감소하였다. 기존의 마취제를 쓰지 않은 본 연구로 인해, 해산송사리의 여타 연구에서 샘플 및 사용자가 보다 더 안전하고 용이한 샘플 취급이 가능할 것으로 사료된다.

Triploidy was induced in the marine medaka, Oryzias dancena by cold shock treatment ($0^{\circ}C$) of fertilized eggs for 30, 45, or 60 min, applied two minutes after fertilization. The triploid genotype was induced by each of the thermal shock regimes tested. The best result was obtained when the eggs were treated for 45 min, which induced triploidy in all the resulting fish. Triploidy was confirmed using chromosomal and flow cytometer analyses, and erythrocyte measurements. The surface areas and volumes of the erythrocytes of triploid fish were significantly larger than those of diploid fish, and their chromosome number (3N=72) was 1.5 times greater that for the diploids (2N=48). Based on a flow cytometer analysis, the triploid fish had approximately 1.5 times the cellular DNA content (2.40 pg/cell) of the diploid specimens (1.61 pg/cell). Data from this study provide the basis for the development of unique models for studying reproductive confinement in transgenic fish.

The method of natural spawning is very passive and inconvenient for the study of developmental engineering in marine medaka, Oryzias dancena. The optimum concentration of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) and carp pituitary extract (CPE) for ovulation and spawning, and the injection time for the artificial spawning of marine medaka were analyzed in this study. The success rate, survival rate, and hatching rate were highest with 100IU HCG kg^-1 BW and 5mg CPE L^-1 in both male and female marine medaka (p<0.05). After obtaining unfertilized eggs and sperm by the injection of HCG and CPE into the broodstock of marine medaka, artificial fertilization could be successfully achieved any time fertilized eggs are needed in this species. This result should be useful for developing a study program for marine medaka as an experimental animal.

The aim of this study is to observe the reproductive behavior of the marine medaka, Oryzias dancena, and determine the factors of reproductive behavior to provide useful information for improving their artificial reproduction techniques. The reproductive behavior of the marine medaka was observed in laboratory aquaria. Once the experiment began, all of the males chased the females. The males attempted to stimulate the urogenital openings of the females. While chasing a female, a large male would bite a relatively small male's anus. Larger males expelled smaller males with biting, and the defeated males were barred from the female. After the other males were expelled, the remaining male approached and drew alongside the female. The male's dorsal and anal fins covered the female's body. Spawning began after complete covering took place. Spawning of males and females occurred simultaneously. The loadings for 2 factors were calculated. The calculation was restricted to 2 factors because these 2 factors explained about 81% of the total common variance (P<0.05) and the following factors possessed no practical significance. Two movements (biting, expelling) had high positive values for factor one. This factor related a male's defensive behavior to courtship behavior and spawning, and explained 23.1% of the total common variance (P<0.05). The second factor had high positive values for chasing, rejection, covering, and parallel swimming. This factor related a male's courtship behavior and female's defensive behavior to spawning, and explained 59.7% of the total common variance (P<0.05). This research provided basic biological data for the conservation of this species and useful information for improving their artificial reproduction techniques.

The aim of this study was to conduct a comparative analysis of the diploid and induced triploid cell cycles in marine medaka, Oryzias dancena, tissues. The mean fraction of cells in the G₁, S, and G₂+M phases was 85.5%, 7.6%, and 6.9%, respectively, in the tail fin tissues of diploid fish and 91.2%, 3.6%, and 5.2%, respectively, in those of induced triploid fish. The mean fraction of cells in the G₁, S, and G₂+M phases were 78.4%, 10.6%, and 11.0%, respectively, in the liver tissues of diploid fish; 86.2%, 5.9%, and 7.9%, respectively, in those of induced triploid; 79.3%, 9.4%, and 11.3%, respectively, in the gill tissues of diploid fish; and 85.7%, 5.4%, and 8.9%, respectively, in the induced triploid fish. The differences among the tissues were statistically significant within both the diploid and induced triploid fish (p<0.05). Mitosis was more active in each tissue of the diploid fish than in the corresponding tissues of the induced triploid fish and mitosis was more active in the liver and gill tissues than in the tail fin tissues in both the diploid and induced triploid marine medaka.

The susceptibility of marine medaka, Oryzias dancena to fish pathogenic viruses (infectious pancreatic necrosis virus (IPNV), viral hemorrhagic septicemia virus (VHSV), hirame rhabdovirus (HIRRV), infectious hematopoietic necrosis virus (IHNV), and lymphocystis disease virus (LCDV)) was investigated. The cumulative mortalities of fish immersed with IPNV (experimental condition: $15^{\circ}C$ sea water (SW)), VHSV ($15^{\circ}C$ SW), HIRRV ($15^{\circ}C$ fresh water (FW)) were 30%, 40% and 60%, respectively. In the fish immersed with IPNV ($15^{\circ}C$ FW, $18^{\circ}C$ FW and SW), VHSV ($15^{\circ}C$ FW, $18^{\circ}C$ FW and SW), HIRRV ($15^{\circ}C$ SW), IHNV ($15^{\circ}C$ FW and SW), LCDV ($15^{\circ}C$ FW and SW, $18^{\circ}C$ FW and SW), and mock-challenged group, mortality rate was less than 10%. IPNV, VHSV and HIRRV were re-isolated from the dead fish. These results suggest that marine medaka is susceptible to IPNV, VHSV and HIRRV, although their susceptibility depends on the environmental conditions.

Sex differentiation and gonad development were investigated in a marine medaka species, Oryzias dancena (Beloniformes; Teleostei). The average time to hatch was 11 days post-fertilization (dpf) at $25^{\circ}C$. Primordial germ cell (PGC) was first observed at 5 dpf and migrated to presumptive gonadal area between the gut and pronephric duct at 9 dpf. Male and female gonads were morphologically differentiated at 12 days post-hatching (dph). Early oocytes at perinucleolus stage as well as the formation of spermatid and efferent duct were observed at 28 dph. At 6 weeks of age, the ovary exhibited yolk granulation in many oocytes, while testis possessed a considerable number of spermatogonia and spermatids. The first ovulation was observed in 9-week-old females, and at the same age, males contained fully-matured spermatozoa. Data obtained in this study indicate that the gonad differentiation of O. dancena is the typical type of differentiated gonochorism.
