Interspecific hybrids between tiger grouper Epinephelus fuscoguttatus and giant grouper E. lanceolatus were genetically identified based on the partial sequence analysis of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase I (COX I) gene and nuclear recombination activating gene 2 (RAG 2) gene. Out of 585 base positions of RAG 2, a total of five nucleotide substitutions were detected between the two parental species (E. fuscoguttatus and E. lanceolatus). The hybrids had two distinct types of RAG 2 sequences corresponding to those of both parental species. Mitochondrial COX I gene sequencing showed that hybrids had sequences identical to E. fuscoguttatus. Molecular data clearly demonstrate that hybridization does occur between E. fuscoguttatus and E. lanceolatus, but with E. fuscoguttatus as the maternal parent.

서식 환경이 다른 바리과(family Serranidae) 어류 두 종, 붉바리 (Epinephelus akaara)와 brown-marbled grouper (E. fuscoguttatus)의 종간 잡종 수정란의 부화율을 조사하였다. 잡종(붉바리 ♀ ${\times}$ brown marbled grouper ♂)의 수정 후 각 발생단계까지 소요시간은 붉바리 순종과 차이가 없었으며, 부화 소요시간은 $25^{\circ}C$에서 25.6시간이었다. 잡종은 붉바리 순종과는 달리 비균등 난할이 분명하게 관찰되었다. 잡종의 부화율은 네 수온(22, 25, 28, $31^{\circ}C$)에서 대체적으로 낮았으며, $25^{\circ}C$에서 9.8%로 가장 높았다. 이상의 연구에서 서식환경이 서로 다른 바리과 두 종간 잡종이 생산 가능한 것으로 조사되었으며, 향후 산업적 활용성을 검증하기 위하여 발생 양상, 기형률 및 초기 생존율 등에 관한 면밀한 연구가 필요할 것으로 판단된다.

Groupers (Family Epinephelidae) are commonly caught in data-poor small-scale multi-species fisheries for sale on both export and domestic markets. This study presents data on the species composition and size/life-stage structure of Epinephelus spp. groupers caught by small-scale fishers and sold locally in the Indonesian province of South Sulawesi. Data were collected from fishing ports and local markets at 12 sites representing the three seaways around South Sulawesi (Makassar Strait, Flores Sea, Gulf of Bone). Each specimen (n = 3,398) was photographed alongside an object of known length, and total length (TL) was obtained using the Rapid Scaling on Object (RASIO). Of the 23 species identified, four (Epinephelus areolatus, Epinephelus ongus, Epinephelus quoyanus, and Epinephelus fasciatus) collectively comprised 69% of the catch, while the 13 least abundant species contributed less than 5%. The catch was dominated (67%) by the subadult life-stage, with just under 20% in the adult class. Juveniles dominated the catch of Epinephelus fuscoguttatus, a valuable export commodity. Observations of early maturity as well as the sizeable gap between length at first capture (Lc) and length at first maturity (Lm) indicate recruitment overfishing of most species, with the notable exception of Epinephelus rivulatus. The proportion of adult fish was low (≈5%-30%) for the twelve most abundant species (E. areolatus, E. ongus, Epinephelus quoyanus, E. fasciatus, Epinephelus coioides, Epinephelus faveatus, Epinephelus sexfasciatus, Epinephelus maculatus, Epinephelus bleekeri, Epinephelus corallicola, E. fuscoguttatus, Epinephelus polyphekadion). For two moderately abundant species (E. faveatus and E. malabaricus), TL < Lm for all specimens. The limited data available indicate spawning ratio is lower than reported from deep-water fisheries of E. areolatus and E. coioides. The results call for targeted research to fill knowledge gaps regarding the biology and ecology of groupers exploited mainly for domestic markets; highlight the need for species-level data to inform management policies such as minimum legal size regulations; and can contribute towards species-level status assessments.

We examined the effect of salinity and water temperature on hatching and survival rates of fertilized eggs of hybrid grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus ♀ ${\times}$ E. lanceolatus ♂) at different developmental stages, determining optimal conditions for their long-distance transportation. Deformities and hatching rates of fertilized grouper eggs were observed at salinities of 24, 27, 30, 33, 36, and 39 psu. The optimal salinity was determined to be 36 psu, with a survival rate of $70.0{\pm}2.0%$. Transportation experiments at 36 psu were conducted at water temperatures of 21, 24, 27, and $30^{\circ}C$, different developmental stages such as morula, 5-myomere, and tail beating for hatching and survival rates. The optimal water temperature and developmental stage for transporatation were $30^{\circ}C$ and tail beating stage and those hatching rates were $50.6{\pm}1.9%$ and $86.3{\pm}1.3%$, respectively. At $21^{\circ}C$, the survival rate by transportation water temperature was highest ($73.1{\pm}10.6%$), but the hatching rate ($17.1{\pm}3.1%$) was lowest. Therefore, the hybrid grouper fertilized eggs (E. fuscoguttatus ♀ ${\times}$ E. lanceolatus ♂) can be most efficiently produced under long-distance transportation conditions during the tail beating stage and at a water temperature of $30^{\circ}C$.

We investigated growth, survival and stress response depending on salinity changes in hybrid grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus ♀×E. polyphekadion ♂, BCG) juvenile. Experiment I (Exp I), the hybrids were stocked at 32 psu and reared for 30 days under decreasing salinity at a rate of 5-7 psu per day (25, 20, 15, 10, 5 psu). Experiment II (Exp II), the salinity was decreased from 32 psu to 5 psu during a period of 24, 48 and 72 h. Experiment III (Exp III), acclimatized BCGs were exposed from 5 psu to decreasing salinity at 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 psu. In the Exp I, 90% survival only in the 5 psu. Growth were 5 and 32 psu had significantly low growth than other treatment. In the Exp II 100% survived by the end of the experiment. The plasma cortisol level was highest in the treatment the salinity rapidly dropped, but all the treatment recovered quickly after 24 h of salinity reduction. In the Exp III, the lower the salinity, the faster the mortality occurred in salinity below 5 psu. It is therefore concluded that the BCGs are highly tolerant of low salinity and the salinity tolerance threshold is 5 psu.

The nutrient composition of the muscle of the hybrid grouper (Epinephelus fuscoguttatus×E. lanceolatus, HG) and the hybrid longtooth grouper (E. moara×E. lanceolatus, HLG) was measured as a function of body weight in this study. The crude protein and lipid levels in HG were 21.0-21.2 g/100 g and 1.9-3.4 g/100 g, respectively. HLG contained 20.6-20.7 g/100 g protein, and 3.9-5.5 g/100 g crude lipid. The total amino acid contents of HG were 18,829.7-18,980.2 mg/100 g and that of HLG was 17,793.7-19,293.7 mg/100 g. The mean saturated fatty acid content was 0.61-1.09 g/100 g for HG and 1.27-1.77 g/100 g for HLG. Monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acid levels were 0.59-1.02 g/100 g (Monoene), 0.67-1.11 g/100 g (Polyene) in HG, which were lower than the 1.21-1.78 (Monoene), 1.22-1.69 g/100 g (Polyene) found in HLG. The highest mineral content (K and P) of HG was 510.13-517.05 mg/100g and 231.59-247.67 mg/100 g, while that of HLG was 518.81-523.59 mg/100 g and 257.51-248.84 mg/100 g, respectively. In conclusion, there is potential for expanding the commercial utilization of HG and HLG as food resources as they are both nutrient-rich.

본 실험에서 아질산 급성노출은 대왕범바리의 혈액학적 성상 및 혈장성분에 유의적 변화를 나타내었다. 혈액학적 성상인 Hct와 Hb는 아질산 노출에 의한 유의적 감소를 확인하였다. 혈장 성분인 glucose, cholesterol, GPT 및 ALP는 아질산 노출에 의해 유의적으로 변화를 나타냄을 확인하였다. 본 실험의 결과 아질산 노출 100mg L^-1 이상의 농도는 대왕범바리의 혈액 성상 및 혈장 성분의 유의적 영향을 미치며, 800 mg L^-1의 아질산 급성 노출은 대량 폐사를 유발할 수 있으나, 기존 국내 양식 대상종인 Olive flounder, P. Olivaceus는 171.043 mg L^-1 (Kim et al. 2018), Yellow tail, Seriola quinqueradiata는 147 mg L^-1 (Sugiyama et al. 1991)에 비해 상대적으로 높은 값을 보여 아질산 내성이 상대적으로 강함을 확인할 수 있었다.

본 실험에서 암모니아 급성 노출은 대왕범바리의 혈액학적 성상 및 혈장 성분에 유의적 변화를 나타내었다. 본 실험의 결과 20mg L^-1 이상의 급성 암모니아 노출은 대왕범바리의 혈액학적 성상 및 혈장 성분에 영향을 주어 생리적 변화를 일으키며, 40mg L^-1의 급성 암모니아 농도는 대량 폐사를 유발할 수 있음을 나타낸다. 향후 대왕범바리 바이오플락 양식기술 적용을 위한 양식연구에 이러한 결과를 지표로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.
