한국산 담수어류인 버들치와 버들개의 생식주기 연구를 위해 버들치 1개 지역, 버들개 2개 지역에서 1998년 4월부터 1999년 4월까지 채집된 암, 수 개체의 생식소중량지수 (GSI: gonado-somatic index)의 변화 주기와 각 발달 시기별 생식소의 조직학적 연구를 수행하였다. 두 종은 거의 생식소 발달 단계상의 차이를 보이지 않아 이를 제 1단계 (방출기), 제 2단계 (미숙기), 제 3단계(초기 발달기), 제 4단계(후기 발달기), 그리고 제 5단계(완숙기)의 5단계로 나눌 수 있었다. 1998년 4월 중반부터 6월까지의 제 1단계 중, 두 종의 생식소는 현저한 무게감소를 보여 제 2단계인 7월 말에 이르러 최소값의 GSI를 기록하였다. 1998년 9월 이후 이후 두 종의 난소와 청소는 난자형성과정과 정자형성과정의 발달로 서서히 비대해져 GSI의 증가곡선을 보였으나 동절기인 12월 이후부터의 낮은 증가율로 인해 거의 일정한 상태의 GSI값이 1999년 2월까지 유지되었다(제 4단계). 1999년 3월 이후의 본격적인 난황축적과정과 정자형성파정으로 인해 GSI는 다시 빠른 속도로 증가하여 4월 경 완전히 성숙된 난소와 정소가 되었다. 일년간 조사된 GSI값의 변화와 조직학적 결과로 확인된 버들치와 버들개의 산란기는 4월 중순~5월 중순이었다.

In order to investigate the effect of salinity on growth and osmoregulation of the sweetfish, Plecoglossus altivelis, the fish (post-larva, juvenile, adult) reared in seawater were directly transferred into the experimental rearing water of the different salinities (post-larva : $0\textperthousand$, $5\textperthousand$, $10\textperthousand$, $15\textperthousand$, $20\textperthousand$, $30\textperthousand$. juvenile : $0\textperthousand$, $\10textperthousand$, $20\textperthousand$, $30\textperthousand$. adult : $0\textperthousand$, $15\textperthousand$, $35\textperthousand$, respectively). Fish samples were taken in time courses after transfer for blood and body fluid collection. The changes of sodium, potassium concentration and osmolality of the body fluid and plasma, muscle water content, gonadosomatic index (GSI) and hepatosomatic index (HSI) in the experimental fish were observed in time courses. Growth rate of the post-larva in $\5~25\textperthousand$ were faster than in $0\textperthousand$ (P<0.05). Survival rate was very low in $0\textperthousand$ (P<0.05). No fish survived more than 50 days after transferred into $0\textperthousand$. The concentration of sodium, potassium and osmolality in body fluid of the juvenile sweetfish were slightly decreased at 0.25 day after the beginning of the maintainable level of sodium, potassium and osmolality were $36.4\pm6.2 mM/\ell, 47.5\pm0.7 mM/\ell, 366.3\pm19.1 mOsm/kg, respectively. Except potassium concetration, fish in $0\textperthousand$ and $10\textperthousand$ displayed the pattern of hypoosmotic regulation. Growth rate and survival rate of juveniles of $30\textperthousand$ are significantly low than other groups (P＜0.05). The concentration of sodium, potassium and osmolality in plasma of adult sweetfish were slightly decreased at 1 day after the beginning of the maintainable level of sodium, potassium and osmolality were $159.0\pm2.5 mM/\ell, 5.8\pm0.9 mM/\ell, 338.1$\pm13.3 mOsm/kg respectively. Compared with these values, fish in $0\textperthousand$ and $15\textperthousand$ displayed hypoosmotic regultion. Growth and survival rate of adult in $35\textperthousand$ are significantly low than other experimental groups. GSI was the highest in $15\textperthousand$ after 60 days. HSI was the lowest in $35\textperthousand$. With decreased salinities, oxygen consumption was found to be decreased in the other experimental groups compared to the more than $30\textperthousand$.

양식 잠재력이 높은 어종인 쥐노래미 (Hexagrammos otakii)의 번식생리에 관한 기초 자료를 얻고자 쥐노래미의 생식주기와 함께 혈청의 성 스테로이드호르몬의 변화에 관하여 연구하였다. GSI는 암컷과 수컷에서 3월부터 8월까지 유의한 변화를 보이지 않다가 9월부터 상승하기 시작하여 1월에 최고값을 보였다. 암컷의 혈중$E_2$의 수준은 12월에 가장 높은 값을 보였으며 1월이 되면 낮아지기 시작하여 8월까지 낮은 수준을 유지하다가 9월부터 다시 상승하기 시작하였다. 암컷에서의 혈중 T 변화도 $E_2$,와 유사한 경향이었다. 암컷 혈중의 $17{\alpha}20{\beta}-OHP$ 변화를 보면 1월에 연중 최고값을 나타내었다. 그후 2월부터 급격하게 떨어져 7월까지 낮은 값이 유지되었고 8월에 약간 상승하였다. 수컷에서 T의 혈중 수준은 12월에 최고값을 나타내었으나 1월부터 급격히 하강하였다가 7월부터 다시 상숭하기 시작하였다. 한편 수컷 혈중 $17{\alpha}20{\beta}-OHP$의 수준은 전체적으로 암컷의 $17{\alpha}20{\beta}-OHP$ 변화 경향과 유사하였다.

To investigate the effects of octylphenol and nonylphenol on the reproduction of the striped field mouse, the mice were subcutaneousely injected with 4-t-octylphenol 800 mg/kg (OP800), nonylphenol 900 mg/kg (NP900) or OP800 + NP900 (OPNP), respectively, in two times a week for 2 months. As the results, there were no differences between the control and the compound-treated groups in the body weight in both sexes, and the GSI (gonadosomatic index) and SVI (seminal vesicles index) in the adult males. But histological abnormalities of the reproductive organs in the mice seems to be related to the compound. This suggestion is supported by the facts that most mice treated with the compounds had only a small number of spermatozoa in the shrunken epididymal tubules. In addition, the shrunken reproductive organ in one mouse treated with the NP, suggests that the abnormalities in the wild striped field mice might be induced by the compound. Furthermore, it is indicated that the compounds must be toxicants to inhibit pregnancy, judging from the fact that all the mice treated with the compounds had failed to deliver.

Rearing experiments were conducted using several regimes combined with different photoperiods and water temperatures to investigate the role of temperature and photoperiod as environmental cues regulating reproduction in red marbled rockfish, Sebastiscus tertius. The initial gonadosomatic index (GSI) was $1.62{\pm}0.32%$ and that in the $15^{\circ}C$ control was $7.01{\pm}0.46%$ at the end of the experiment. The highest GSI was $9.10{\pm}0.35%$ in the 12L:12D photoperiod-treated fish. The highest GSI at $19^{\circ}C$ was $15.03{\pm}0.86%$ in the 12L:12D photoperiod treatment. The initial hepatosomatic index (HSI) was $3.09{\pm}0.72%$ and that in the $15^{\circ}C$ control was $3.88{\pm}0.45%$. The highest HSI was $4.00{\pm}0.56%$ in the 15L:9D treated fish. The highest HSI at $19^{\circ}C$ was $4.05{\pm}0.63%$ in the 12L:12D treated fish.

The relationship of gonad weight and liver weight with body weight of six fish species viz; Catla catla, Labeo rohita, Cirrhina mrigala, Hypophthlamichthys molitrix, Ctenopharyngodon idella and Cyprinus carpio under the influence of artificial feed, broiler manure, buffalo manure, N:P:K (25:25:0) and a control pond were examined after a rearing period of one year. The positive relationship between gonad weight and body weight was significant which showed the dependence of gonadal development on body weight in all the six fish species. The currelation coefficients were higher in female fishes. However, the major carps had a much smaller proportional gonadal weight as compared with Chinese carps and a common carp due to their faster growth rate. The overall comparison of six fish species under different experimental treatments revealed that highest liver weight was observed for C. idella closely followed by C. carpio. The maximum correlation value was observed with H. molitrix under the broiler manure. The maximum Gonadosomatic Index (GSI) remained as 32.63 for C. carpio followed by C. idella. The maximum value for Hepatosomatic Index (HSI). remained 1.99 for C. idella followed by C. mrigala.

Sexual maturation and reproductive cycle of the bat star Asterina pectinifera were investigated by histological method. Specimens were collected monthly in Donghwari, Gosunggun, Korea from January 2004 to February 2005. The bat star was dioecious. The gonads are composed of a number of gametogenic follicles. The gonadosomatic index (GSI) of female and male were reached the maximum in July (5.72, 4.54) and the minimum in December (0.89) and January, February (0.51), and the gonad index (GI) of female and male were reached the maximum in July (3.53, 3.91) and the minimum in August (0.95) and October to December (1.0), respectively. The main spawning was from August to September. The reproductive cycle of the bat star could be divided into five stages: in the female, inactive (November-February), early active (January February), late active (March-June), ripe (July), spent and degenerative (August-November) and in the male, inactive (November-February), early active (January-March), late active (April-June), ripe (July), spent and degenerative (August-October), respectively.

Age and growth of red tongue sole (Cynoglossus joyneri), were studied using samples from the coastal waters off Yeosu, Korea, from January to December, 2001. Sagittal otoliths had relatively clear annuli. Marginal index of otolith dropped sharhly in August suggesting that each annulus was formed once a year In August. Monthly changes in the gonadosomatic index indicated that spawning peaked between July and September. The oldest fish observed in this study was 4 years old for both of females and males. Relationships between the otolith radius (R) and total length (L) were: L=14.1R-0.098 for females, and L=11.9R+1.83 for males. Relationships between total length and body weight $(W)\;were:\;W=0.0021L^{3.24}\;for\;females,\;and\;W=0.0014L^{3.39}$ for males. Growth in length of the fish was expressed by the von Bertalanffy's growth equation as:$L_{t}=29.06\;(1-e^{-0.19(t+2.40)})\;for\;females\;and\;L_{t}=27.44 (1-e^{-0.17(t+2.84)})$ for males.

The suitability of any fish species for successful aquaculture requires basic information on its reproduction and growth. This study investigated some facets of the reproductive biology of Synodontis shall (Mochokidae) from River Siluko in Nigeria. Fish samples were collected forth-nightly for a duration of fourteen (14) months-March 2015 to April, 2016 with the assistance of artisanal fishermen. Fishes were identified using taxonomic guides and standard techniques were used for determination of sex ratio, gonad maturation and fecundity. Linear regression method was used to define the correlation between fecundity and fish length, body weight and ovary weight. Results showed that sex ratio did not indicate a significant divergence (p > 0.05) from the 1 male to 1 female distribution ratio (1:1.41). Gonad morphology revealed paired gonads. Testes and ovaries were classified into four maturity stages: immature, resting, ripening and ripe. Gonadosomatic index ranged from 0.04 to 5.68 (males) and 0.03 to 20.19 (females). Absolute fecundity ranged from 1,014 to 4,520 eggs (mean = 2,592 eggs) and did not correlate significantly (p > 0.05) to ovary weight. This study has contributed to existing data on the biology of freshwater fish species in Nigeria and provided valuable information for fishery management tools in the conservation and utilization of this valuable freshwater fish species.
