Abstract

The primordial germ cells of the oblong rockfish, Sebastes oblongus were buried under fibrous mesenchymal tissues between gut and mesonephric duct of pre-larva with 4.0 mm total length (TL) at 1 day after the parturition. In the juvenile of 22.0 mm TL at 71 days after the parturition, the gonad composed of a large number of gonial cell and formed of cavity along the lateral side of the gonad, differentiated to the ovary. At this time, the gonad formed seminiferous tubules by somatic cells, was differentiated to the testis. The smallest oblong rockfish that possessed primary oocytes was about 42.1 mm TL at 141 days. Spermatogonia remained quiescent until most fish were over 42.1 mm TL at 141 days. The oblong rockfish the differentiated directly into male or female without an intermediate female phase at the early indifferentiated stage. Therefore, the oblong rockfish belongs to the differentiated type of gonochoristic teleosts.

황점볼락, Sebastes oblongus은 다른 양식 품종보다 저수온에 대해 내성이 강하고 고가의 남해안 특산품종으로 알려져 있다. 이들의 효율적인 종묘생산과 육종학적인 연구를 위하여 인위적인 성성숙 조절의 기초자료로서 성분화에 대해 먼저 조사하였다. 시원생식세포는 출산 후 2일, 전장 3.0 mm 개체에서 장관과 중신 사이의 섬유성 간충직에 묻혀 식별되었다. 출산 후 71일의 치어에서, 생식소의 주변 부위에 강(cavity)을 형성하고 다수의 생식원세포로 구성된 생식소는 난소로 발달한다. 이 시기에 체세포들이 곡정세관을 형성하는 생식소는 정소로 분화된다. 초기 난모세포를 가지는 소형의 황점볼락은 출산 후 141일째의 치어들에서 나타났고, 정원세포 역시 이 시기에 관찰되었다. 따라서 황점볼락은 초기 성분화 단계에 자상을 거치지 않고 난소와 정소로 바로 분화되었다. 이들 종은 분화형의 자웅이체에 속한다.
