In present study the Effects of different doses of ovaprim on induced spawning activities of Rita rita were observed with an aim to standardize the dose of ovaprim for successful breeding. In the trial experiment, the females of Rita rita were treated with ovaprim at the rate of 0.5, 0.8 and 1.0ml/kg body weight and males of Rita rita in all the cases were treated at the rate of 0.4ml/kg.  The doses of ovaprim at the rates of 0.5, 0.8, 1.0 ml/kg body weight resulted in 0%, 100% and 100% ovulation respectively. In case of injection of ovaprim at the rate of 0.8ml/kg, the fertilization rate was observed to be about 70% and hatching rate was 58%, which occurred within 20-25 hours after fertilization at water temperature of 270C-290C. In case of injection of ovaprim at the rate of 1.0ml/kg, 18% fertilization rate and 5% hatching rate was observed. The doses of ovaprim at the rates of 0.8ml/kg and 0.4ml/kg body weight for female and male Rita rita respectively was found to be satisfactory for overall breeding performance and the commercially successful production of this fish. Hatchlings from over all experiment were reared up to fingerlings size to about 2 month and were finally stocked into the Chashma lake.

Ikan baung (Hemibagrus nemurus) memiliki prospek bagus untuk dikembangkan sebagai komoditas budidaya di Indonesia karena citarasa daging yang enak banyak diminati konsumen. Dewasa ini, peningkatan produksi benih dapat dilakukan melalui pemijahan buatan dengan manipulasi hormonal. Penelitian yang dilakukan bertujuan untuk mengevaluasi produksi induk ikan baung melalui pemijahan buatan dengan dosis penyuntikan GnRH-a berbeda. Penelitian dilakukan di Instalasi Riset Plasma Nutfah Perikanan Air Tawar, Cijeruk, Bogor pada bulan November 2017. Induk betina ikan baung yang digunakan berukuran 465,0 ± 71,8 g; dan induk jantan 426,3 ± 46,8 g. Induksi dilakukan dengan penyuntikan hormon GnRH-a dengan tiga dosis yang berbeda pada induk betina (0,3; 0,5; dan 0,7 mL/kg bobot badan), dan ikan jantan dengan dosis 0,4 mL/kg bobot badan. Masing-masing perlakuan terdiri atas tiga ekor induk betina sebagai ulangan. Hormon disuntikkan secara intramuskular, diberikan dua kali penyuntikan 35% dari dosis total pada penyuntikan pertama, dan 65% diberikan pada penyuntikan kedua, dengan interval waktu penyuntikan delapan jam. Parameter yang diamati yaitu jumlah telur ovulasi, derajat pembuahan, derajat penetasan, dan sintasan larva selama tujuh hari. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa dosis penyuntikan hormon GnRH-a 0,5 mL/kg pada induk ikan baung saat proses pemijahan buatan menghasilkan derajat penetasan yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan dosis 0,3 dan 0,7 mL/kg; serta sintasan larva yang lebih baik dibandingkan dosis 0,7 mL/kg. Sedangkan nilai jumlah telur yang berhasil ovulasi dan derajat pembuahan yang relatif lebih baik ditemukan pada perlakuan dosis 0,7 mL/kg dibandingkan dengan dosis 0,3 dan 0,5 mL/kg.Asian redtail catfish (Hemibagrus nemurus) has a good prospect to be developed as aquaculture commodity in Indonesia. It was proved by the demand of consumers regarding to its delicious flesh taste. Recently, efforts to increase seedling production could be implemented through artificial spawning with hormonal manipulation. This study was conducted to evaluate the production of broodstocks through artificial spawning with different doses of GnRH-a. Study was conducted at Research Institute for Freshwater Fisheries Germplasm, Cijeruk, Bogor in November, 2017. The broodstock used in this study was 465.0 ± 71.8 g for females, and 426.3 ± 46.8 g for males. Induction was performed by injection of GnRH-a hormone with three different doses on female broodstocks (0.3, 0.5 and 0.7 mL/kg of body weight), and male broodstocks with a dose of 0.4 mL/kg of body weight. Each treatment consisted of three females as replications. The hormone was injected intramuscularly, given twice injection: 35% of the total dose is given at the first injection, and the remaining 65% was given at the second injection, with an injection time interval of eight hours. The results showed the observed parameters of number of the ovulated eggs, fertilization rate, hatching rate, and larval survival for seven days, treatment dosage of 0.5 mL/kg showed better results (P<0.05) than the dosage of 0.3 mL/kg and 0.7 mL/kg. Parameters observed were number of ovulated eggs, fertility rate, hatching rate, and survival rate for seven days. The results showed that the dosage of 0.5 mL/kg GnRH-a injection to the broodstock during artificial spawning resulted in higher hatching rate compared to 0.3 and 0.7 mL/kg and better larval survival rate than the dosage of 0.7 mL/kg. Meanwhile, the number of ovulated eggs and fertility rate was relatively better in the treatment of 0.7 mL/kg compared with the dosage of 0.3 and 0.5 mL/kg.

A study on the effect of different doses of Ovulin hormone suspended in saline on the breeding performance of Clarias anguillaris and Clarias gariepinus was carried out. The experiment was conducted in a 2x5 factorial experiment in a Completely Randomized Design at the Hatchery Unit of the Department of Fisheries and Aquaculture, Usmanu Danfodiyo University, Sokoto. Species and hormone dilutions constituted the factors with specie having 2 levels (C. anguillaris and C. gariepinus) and Ovulin suspended in saline at 5 levels (0%, 25%, 50%, 75% and 100%). The result showed that species levels did not significantly (P>0.05) affect the breeding performance in all the breeding performance parameters observed. However, fertilization rate, hatching rate and survival rate were significantly affected (P<0.05) by different levels of Ovulin suspended in saline, but did not have significant influence (P>0.05) on egg weight, spawning fecundity and relative fecundity. It could be concluded from this study that Ovulin suspended in saline can have significant influence on the breeding performance of African catfish.

Rhinelepis aspera is the largest Loricariidae species found in the São Francisco river basin where it is now rarely caught. Brooders kept in tanks were hypophysed with crude carp pituitary extract (CCPE). Approximately 82% of the females responded positive to the treatment. The egg was opaque, demersal, round, yellow and adhesive. Egg stripping was done at 212 hour-degrees (= 8.2 h) after application of the second dose of CCPE (water temperature = 25-26 ºC). Hatching of the larvae occurred at 1022 hour-degrees (= 42.2 h), after fertilization of the eggs (water temperature =24-25 ºC). Fertilization rate of the eggs was 72%. Absolute fecundity (AF), initial fertility (IF) and final fertility (FF) in relation to the females' body weight are expressed, respectively, by the equations: AF = - 33993 + 122308 Wt (r² = 0.88), IF = - 14823 + 58619 Wt (r² = 0.71) and FF = - 6553 + 29741 (r² = 0.61)

The paper reports the first incidence of successful induction of breeding in the riverine catfish Rita rita using carp pituitary gland (PG) extract. A breeding trial using four PG doses viz. 80, 100, 120 and 140mg/kg body weight of fish was conducted to optimize the dose of pituitary gland (PG) extract in terms of induction of ovulation in female. The male received a dose of 40mg PG/kg body weight in all cases and was sacrificed for collection of milt. The best performance was shown by the fish treated with 100mg PG/kg body weight in respect of inducing ovulation in females and fertilization and hatching rates of eggs.

An adaptive trial was undertaken for early breeding of carps in four private hatcheries of Khordha district in the state of Odisha, India. CIFABROODTM, a promising carp brood diet was used to observe the breeding performance and seed production of carps in early monsoon. CIFABROODTM was provided in experimental ponds while farm made feed prepared by the hatchery owners were used in the control ponds. After 45days of feeding, fishes in the trial ponds became mature while in the control ponds fishes were immature. Average fertilization rate was observed to be 88.14% with an average spawn recovery of 2.14 lakh spawn/kg body weight of female. Highest average fertilization rate was found in mrigal followed by rohu and catla. Similarly average spawn recovery per kg of female body weight indicates a highest recovery in rohu followed by mrigal and catla. In turn the spawn buyers had an average survival rate of 42.18% from spawn to fry and 73.5% from fry to fingerling rearing. This adaptive trial has reconfirmed CIFABROODTM as a proven carp brood diet which has shown to impact at all the three crucial stages of seed production. The positive outcomes of the attributes of innovation were highly towards an increased rate of adoption.

Permintaan ikan belida cukup tinggi untuk memenuhi kebutuhan konsumsi dan bahan baku olahan makanan yang masih mengandalkan tangkapan dari alam. Tingginya eksploitasi mengakibatkan populasi ikan dari tahun ke tahun semakin berkurang dan terancam punah. Teknologi pembenihan ikan belida dengan penggunaan hormon diduga dapat meningkatkan produksi larva untuk keperluan budidaya. Penelitian dilakukan untuk mengevaluasi performasi pemijahan ikan belida secara alami dan buatan melalui induksi hormon HCG dan LHRH analog. Pemijahan alami dan buatan dilakukan menggunakan induk betina sebanyak enam ekor dan jantan tiga ekor (rasio 2:1). Induk yang digunakan berukuran panjang 46 ± 5 cm dan bobot 2.209 ± 623 g. Pemijahan buatan dilakukan dengan induksi hormon HCG dosis 500 IU/kg dan LHRH analog dosis 0,5 mL/kg. Penyuntikan HCG dan LHRH diberikan dengan interval 24 jam. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan pada pemijahan buatan (induksi hormon) diperoleh induk yang memijah sebanyak dua ekor dengan nilai diameter telur (3,1 ± 0,3 mm); fekunditas (282-907 butir); derajat pembuahan (21%-40%); derajat penetasan (56%-75%); dan sintasan (30%-50%); sedangkan pada pemijahan alami diperoleh satu ekor induk yang memijah dengan nilai diameter telur (3,5 ± 0,3 mm); fekunditas (1.616 butir); dan derajat pembuahan (86,7%); selama tiga bulan pengamatan secara intensif dengan frekuensi pemijahan enam kali. Aplikasi teknologi pemijahan dengan menggunakan induksi hormon dapat menghasilkan produk larva pada ikan belida.The demand for fish consumption of Clown Knifefish is considerably high. However, the fish supply for consumption and processed food still relies on wild-caught. Such exploitation has decreased the population of Clown Knifefish to a point that it can become an endangered species. Efforts on the breeding technology of Clown Knifefish through natural and artificial propagation using of hormones have shown promising results. The current study was conducted to evaluate the performance of Clown Knifefish in natural and artificial spawning conditions using the induction of HCG hormone and LHRH analogues. The natural and artificial spawning treatments were conducted using six fish females and three fish males (a ratio of 2:1). The average Broodstocks’ size was 46 ± 5 cm in length and 2,209 ± 623 g in weight. The artificial spawning was conducted with HCG hormone induction (dose of 500 IU/kg body weight) and LHRH analogue (dose: 0.5 mL/kg). HCG and LHRH injections were given within 24 hours interval. The results showed that the artificial spawning (hormone induction) had successfully caused two broodstock to spawn producing eggs with the diameter of 3.1 ± 0.3 mm; fecundity of 282-907 eggs; fertilization rate of 21%-40%; hatching rate of 56%-75%; and survival rate of 30%-50%. In the natural spawning, one broodstock had spawned with the egg diameter of 3.5 ± 0.3 mm; fecundity of 1,616 eggs; and fertilization rate of 86.7%. This study concludes that spawning technology applications using hormonal induction can increase the production larvae of Clown Knifefish broodstock.

Artificial propagation of Mastacembelus pancalus was conducted in order to determine the optimum dose of pituitary  gland (PG) hormone at the hatchery of the Field Laboratory Complex, Faculty of Fisheries, Bangladesh Agricultural  University, Mymensingh. The present study consisted of two trials and each trial had four treatments (T1, T2, T3 and  T4, respectively) with three replications of each. In the experiment single dose and double dose had been used for T1,  T2, T3 and T4, respectively to evaluate the efficiency on ovulation rate, fertilization rate, and hatching rate of M.  pancalus eggs. The hatchlings were reared in aquarium up to 30 days and survival rate was determined. Treatment-3  (T3) of double dose (170mg PG kg-1 and 60mg PG kg-1 body weight of fish for female and male respectively) showed  better results in terms of ovulation rate (90.03±2.56%), fertilization rate (90±0.81%), hatching rate (80±1.84%), and  survival rate (40.00±3.19%) was recorded than other treatments of single and double dose. The water temperature  was recorded 27 to 31°C. In the present study, treatment-3 (T3 in double dose) was the best findings in terms of  ovulation rate, fertilization rate, and hatching rate which can be used in artificial propagation of M. pancalus for the  development of hatchery production. May and June are the suitable months for artificial propagation of the said  species.   DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jbau.v9i2.11045   J. Bangladesh Agril. Univ. 9(2): 305–310, 2011

Considering the threatened status, economic and nutritional importance of stinging catfish (Heteropneustes fossilis), a study on larval development was carried out. Hand stripping method of stinging catfish is being practiced in majority of the hatcheries which is not always felicitous in the sense that puts pressure on brood. The study found that, although fertilization rate was higher in stripping method but non-stripping method was concluded better regarding higher hatching rate. The present study recorded the fertilization and hatching rate in hand stripping and non-striping method 62.33±4.51, 46.67±5.86 and 37.33±2.52, 41.33±5.69, respectively. Subsequent embryonic developmental mean time for 2-cell, 4-cell, 8-cell, 16-cell, 32- cell, Morula, Blastula, Germinal ring, Gastrula, yolk plug, twisting movement, and just before hatching was 0.21±0.05, 0.39±0.08, 1.12±0.08, 1.28±0.04, 2.09±0.05, 2.23±0.13, 3.58±0.45, 5.13±0.15, 7.02±0.28, 8.37±0.104, 15.28±1.06, 20.43±2.03 hours, respectively. Results of the current investigation would provide detailed information to the hatchery managers to conduct successful induced breeding strategy of H. fossilis as well as other catfishes.J. Environ.

Fertilization rate of the first generation of coral trout grouper, Plectropomus leopardus from wild broodstock in cultured tank was relatively low of 10-35%. Based on gonad histology analysis of 30 samples, only one male was found in early stage maturation. Therefore, it is needed to increase functional male production to ensure an increase level of egg fertilization. The experiment was conducted for 9 months using coral trout broodstock, from wild stock as control and selected F1 from culture as treatment. Broodstocks were reared in three tanks, each was 100 m3 in volume with 54 fishes/tank. All selected cultured fish (F1) in tank C were implanted with 17a-MT hormone at 50 mg/kg of body weight every month for 3 consecutive months. Wild stock fish in tank A and selected cultured fish (F1) in tank B were not implant as controls. The result showed that the number of male  increased 6 times in implanted by 17a-MT hormone compared to fish without implant only increased 2 times. Therefore, eggs fertilization and hatching rate were significantly increased by implanting F1 broodstocks with hormone17a-MT. Keywords: Functional male, broodstock, Coral trout (Plectropomus leopardus)
