Resumo

Pituitary extract is in use for fish breeding since a long. Due to the difficulties in procuring pituitary glands and its preservation, scientists were looking for its substitute. Results on the use of human chorionic gonadotrophin in combination with pituitary for breeding of Cirrhina mrigala and Labeo rohita were encouraging. It has been possible to breed C. mrigala and L. rohita by use of HCG also. An increase in hatching percentage was observed with HCG & PG mixture in modern carp hatchery CIFE D-81.
