Effects of taurine levels in broodstock diet on reproductive performance of yellowtail Seriola quinqueradiata

The effect of dietary taurine was investigated on reproductive performance in yellowtail Seriola quinqueradiata. Two‐year‐old fish of average body weight 6.1 kg were fed on diets containing three levels of taurine (T‐0, T‐0.5 or T‐1.0%) for 5 months prior to spawning. For spawning investigations, fi...

Zusammenfassung:The effect of dietary taurine was investigated on reproductive performance in yellowtail Seriola quinqueradiata. Two‐year‐old fish of average body weight 6.1 kg were fed on diets containing three levels of taurine (T‐0, T‐0.5 or T‐1.0%) for 5 months prior to spawning. For spawning investigations, fish were induced to maturity by human chorionic gonadotropin injection (600 IU/kg‐fish) and artificially inseminated. Oocyte growth improved significantly (P
