자원조성 대상어종으로서 우리나라 남부연안의 암초지대에 서식하는 난태생 어류인 황점볼락, Sebutes oblongus의 번식에 관한 기초자료를 얻기 위하여, 여수 근해에서 월별로 채집한 황점볼락을 대상으로 1992년 9월부터 1994년 1월까지 난소와 정소의 발달단계 및 생식주기를 조사하였다. 어체의 비만도는 암컷의 경우 $14.83\pm0.96(1웜)\~19.75\pm3.51$(3웍)이었고, 수컷은 $14.02\pm0.43(1월)\;\~21.14\pm0.96$(4월)이었다. 암수 각각 출산 후 2-3개월 후에 가장 높은 값을 보였다. 암컷의 생식소중량지수는 $0.15\pm0.01(7월)\~58.54\pm3.86$(12월)으로 8월부터 증가하기 시작하여 12월에 최고치를 보였다가 그후 급격하게 감소하였다. 수컷은 $0.08\pm0.03(7월)\~l.55\pm0.27$(9월)로 $7\~9$월에 급속하게 증가하였다. 암컷의 간중량지수는 $0.89\pm0.12(12월)\~3.73\pm0.15$(10월)였고, 수컷은 $2.09\pm0.76(10월)\~3.62\pm0.48$(8월)이었다. 암수 각각의 생식소중량지수가 치고치를 나타내기 $1\~2$개월전에 가장 높은 값을 보였다가 이후 급속히 감소하였다. 난모세포는 8월에 성숙하기 시작하여 10월 말부터 완숙란이 출현하였으며, 난소의 발달양식은 난군동기발달형에 속했다. 배란과 수정은 11월경에 이루어졌으며, 자어는 $12\~1$월에 출산되었다. 정소의 성숙은 8월부터 10월 사이의 짧은 기간에 진행되었고, 정자의 방출시기는 10월이었다. 교미후 정자는 암컷 체내의 난소난들 사이의 간질에서 정구(sperm ball)로서 보존되었다. 황점볼락의 생식년주기는 암컷의 경우 성장기 $8\~9$월, 성숙기$9\~10$월, 임신기$11\~12$월, 출산기 $12\~1$월 휴지기 $2\~7$ 수컷은 성장기 $8\~9$월, 성숙기 $9\~10$월, 교미기 10월, 휴지기 $11\~7$ 이었다.
Gonadal maturation and annual reproductive cycle in ovoviviparous oblong rockfish, Sebastes oblangus on the basis of monthly gonadosomatic indices (GSI), hepatosomatic indices (HSI) and histological observations of gonadal tissues. GSI values of female were in a wide range from $0.l5\pm0.0l\;(July)\;to\;58.54\pm3.86$ (December) and began to increase in August and reached the maxium in December, then decreased rapidly thereafter. Male GSI values were in a range from $0.08\pm0.03$ (July) to $1.55\pm0.27$ (September) and began to increase rapidly in July and reached the maximum in September, then decreased gradually, thereafter. Female HSI was in a range from $0.89\pm0.12$ (December) to $3.73\pm0.15$ (October), and male's was from $2.09\pm0.76$ (October) to $3.62\pm0.48$ (August). HSI reached the maximum values one or two months before GSI reached their maxium values in both sex, and then decreased rapidly thereafter. Mature oocytes began to appear in late October as being oocytes began to mature in August, and the type of oocyte development is categorized in the roup-synchronous oocyte development'. Ovulation and fertilization of ripe oocytes occurred in November, and hatched larvae were born from December to January. Maturation of testis was progressed in short term from August to October and spermatozoa were released in October. Sperm balls consisted of many spermatozoa were preserved in ovarian cavity of female after copulation. These results may suggest that the annual reproductive cycle of oblong rockfish could be divided into the following successive stages: growing (August and September), mature (September and October), gestation (November and December), parturition (December and January) and resting (February to July) in female, and growing (August and September), mature (September and October), copulation (October) and resting (November to July) in male.
