Zusammenfassung:In pikeperch culture, breeders are often sourced from natural stocks and possible benefits of using intensively cultured breeders to produce stocking material for intensive rearing purposes remain unknown. Therefore, the effect of parental origin on the success of pikeperch juvenile culture was investigated in present study. Two phases were investigated, weaning of pond-reared fry and initial on-grow of weaned juveniles, i.e. fingerling rearing phase. Two batches of 5-day-old larvae originating from intensively reared (CULTURE) and wild breeders (WILD) were stocked in two ponds for larval nursing. One month later, juveniles were harvested and stocked in five tanks per group for the evaluation of the success of habituation to intensive rearing conditions. At the age of 3 months, the 6-week trial on intensive on-grow performance was established. WILD fish exhibited a higher habituation success and survival during the period of habituation to the formulated diets than CULTURE fish. After 6 weeks of intensive on-grow, CULTURE juveniles exhibited a significantly higher specific growth rate. It seems that early domestication does not have positive effect on the weaning of pond-nursed juveniles. However, juveniles originating from cultured broodstock appear to be more appropriate stocking material for intensive on-grow.
