Abstract
A study on the spawning and fecundity of anchovy, Engraulis japonica, in the southern waters of Korea was carried out on the basis of data collected from gonad examination during March-september, 1991. Spawning period showed that length class in the range of 9-12cm fork length occurred during May-July, whereas adults above 12cm from March to September. In comparison with the oocyte compositions of the ovary of anchovy adult caught at sunrise and sunset, together with variation of the gonad weight and sex ratio of the fish sampled during time between 14:00 and 21:00, considering that the oocyte more than 600um in diameter existed much in the samples from sunset compared with that from sunrise, as well as a decreasing trend in the gonad weight and proportion of female of anchovy taken around sunset, spawning was estimated to occur mainly after sunset. The proportion of the adult with a pronounced peak above 600um in oocyte composition was estimated to be about
본 연구는 우리나라 남해안에 분포하는 멸치 자원의 산란특성을 밝히기 위하여 1991년 3월부터 9월까지 멸치 성어의 생식소 조사로써 크기별 산란기, 산란빈도, 산란시각 및 산란수를 추정하였다. 산란기는 12cm 이상의 어체에서는 이른 봄철부터 초가을까지이며, 12cm 이하에서는 늦봄부터 초여름에 걸쳐서 2-3 개월간 산란에 참여하는 것으로 추정되었다. 성어의 산난빈도를 추정하고자 난경 빈도 분포를 구한 결과, 전체 난모세포군에서 분리되어 독립된 모우드를 형성하는 600um 이상인 수화란을 가진 개체의 비율은 성어의 약
