Obtención en cautividad de puestas naturales del pez de limon(Seriola dumerili), en la isla de Gran Canaria (España).

[EN]In the present study, natural spawning of a broodstock group of greater amberjack (Seriola dumerili) is described with regards to: date, number of spawns, and total number of eggs produced per spawn. Fish werecaught in 2011 in the Canary Islands, Gran Canaria (Canary Islands, Spain), and kept in captivity. At the end of May 2014, the broodstock group was formed by two females with a weight 9.81±1.08 kg, size 90.0±2.82cm, with oovocites > 800μ, and five males 9.46±2.04 kg, 86.75±5.43 cm, all fluent with sperm. Between the 1stof June and 18thof October 2014, a total of 25.60 million eggs were obtained in 23 spawns.

Comparación entre la calidad de puestas naturales e inducidas, mediante inyección e implante de GnRHa, del pez de limón (Seriola dumerili).

[EN]For this study, a total of 19 greater amberjack (Seriola dumerili) broodstock were used. Females with oocites bigger than 600μ, and fluent males with a mean weight of 10.72±1.22 kg, fameles, and 10.77±2.33 kg males. The experimental tanks were circular tanks of 40 m3 capacity. One of the tanks were not induced and the other two were with GnRHa, one with injections and the other by implants. Best results, in all parameters studied were with natural spawns, with a 84.37% of fertilization, 92.21% of viable eggs at 24 hours of spawn, 96.60% of hatching, 69.91% of larvae one day after hatching and 10.78% of 5 day life larvae.
