Zusammenfassung: | Here, as a proactive effort toward building a hormone-induced artificial insemination protocol for endangered wild sharks, we identified the possibility of germ cell maturation by administration of Ovaprim®, a commercially produced synthetic salmon gonadotropin-releasing hormone, and calculated its optimum dosage and injection timing. [...]of selecting sharks with a total body length of approximately 90 centimeters or more, a total of five male and seven female T. scyllium, and three male and three female T. obesus individuals were collected from Hanwha Aqua Planet Jeju, Jeju-do, Republic of Korea. The sharks' breeding history was examined and according to it the T. scyllium have shown irregular pregnancy regardless of the season, and the T. obesus did not show any pregnancy at all throughout the exhibition. Since there was little change in water temperature and circadian rhythm throughout the year in the facility, their loss of seasonality is explainable (Schaller, 2006; George et al., 2017). First: 0.2 mL/kg + 0.2 mL/kg; Second: 0.2 mL/kg + 0.3 mL/kg at a 24 h interval. |
