Hybrid of red seabream (Pagrus major) and Japanese red seabream (Pagrus major) grew rapidly from to August (WT $19.7^{\circ}C{\sim}24.0^{\circ}C$) while black seabream (Acanthopagrus major) did from September to October (WT $19.9{\sim}23.0^{\circ}C$). Survival rate of hybrids (85.5%) was a significantly higher than those of the other fish species (20%). Green liver syndrome were observed in black sea bream and Japanease red seabream but did not in hybrids. Microcotyle tai infected 0~90% in hybrid, 20~100% in red seabream, 10% in black sea bream and 20~100% in Japanese red seabream but no significant difference was found among each fish species.

This study evaluated acute toxicity of chlorine dioxide (ClO₂ ) to juveniles of black seabream Acanthopagrus schlegelii (19.4±2.3 g, 10.7±0.4 cm) and red seabream Pagrus major (74.9±8.2 g, 15.9±1.0 cm). Thirty juveniles for each species were exposed to target ClO₂ concentrations of 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.125, 0.15, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, and 0.5 mg/L in triplicate for eight days. Half lethal concentrations for 96 hours were found at 0.14 and 0.24 mg ClO₂/L for black seabream and red seabream, respectively. Red seabream larger than black seabream in body weight appears to be more resistance to chlorine dioxide. However, regardless of species or size, specific loading rates of chlorine dioxide to total fish weight (daily feeding amount of ClO₂/total fish weight) were similar, showing 1.3 and 1.1 g ClO₂/kg fish·day^-1 for black seabream and red seabream.

This study determined the acoustic target strength (TS; dB) of black seabream Acanthopagrus schlegeli off the southern coast of Korea. For the ex-situ measurements, 200 kHz split beam transducers were used, and a Kirchhoff-ray mode (KRM) model acoustic model was used for the calculation. The fork length and total weight of the black seabream ranged from 6.4 to 30.8 cm and 6.4 to 683.8 g. respectively 200 kHz, the TS could beexpressed as a function of fork length as: $TS_{max}=20log_{10}(FL)-60.35(R=0.92)$ and $TS_{avg.}=20log_{10}(FL)-66.89(R=0.88)$. These TS results for black seabream can be used for estimating the biomass of fish in acoustic surveys in coastal areas.

The Perciformes include approximately 40% of all bony fishes and are the largest order of vertebrates. This order includes some of the most economically relevant marine fishes, particularly the red seabream, black seabream and rock bream. A 409 bp fragment of the cytochrome b (cyt b) gene and 403 bp and 518 bp fragments of ribosomal RNA (12S and 16S rRNA, respectively) were sequenced from five populations of natural and cultured red seabreams, natural black seabream, and natural and cultured rock breams. The mitochondrial DNA sequences were utilized for the genetic identification and population structural analyses of these three species. Phylogenetic relationships of intra- and inter-species were elucidated using three types of molecular genetic markers from three species of the order Perciformes in Korea. We noted no significant differences in the intra-specific variation of the cyt b and rRNA genes in each population however, inter-specific divergences were greater than intra-specific variation. Inter-specific variation was induced more by transition than transversion type in the cyt b and rRNA genes. The cyt b gene and rRNA genes make it possible to determine the inter-species divergence. The rRNA genes have more conserved sequences than the cyt b gene. Therefore, these genes are expected to prove useful among species belonging to the different genera or families.

The hatching of fertilized egg and early development of larval black seabream, Acanthopngrus schlegeli by immersion of 3,5,3'-triiodo-L-thyronine ($T_3$) with doses of 0.01~0.5 ppm in tank were examined for early development periods and compared with control fish immersed by 0.1 N NaOH and 99% alcohol. Larvae were fed with rotifers for first 5 days during experimental period. Yolk absorption of larvae from $T_3$ immersion groups were significantly faster than that of control. Although hatching times among each groups were not significant difference. the hatching rates of larvae in higher doses (0.1 ppm and 0.5 ppm $T_3$ groups) were significantly lower than control. The results of $T_3$ immersion experiments to newly hatching larvae indicated that exogenous $T_3$induced significant faster the absorption of yolk and oil globule, faster the development of myotome and digestive duct and higher the growth rate of larvae than larvae of control. These results indicate that $T_3$ immersion supplements appear to confer a distinct advantage to eggs and larvae of black seabream, which is in early fragile developmental stage.

The effects of osmolality on the sperm motility in black seabream (Acanthopagrus schlegeli) were studied. Sperm motility of black seabream was suppressed when the osmolality was equal to the seminal fluid. But sperm became motile when the osmolality increased in electrolyte solution (NaCl, KCl, $CaCl_2$, $MgCl_2$) and non-electrolyte solution (mannitol, glucose, fructose, sucrose). The changes of sperm motility index (SMI) by osmolality of diluents described a parabola. In all of the diluents, SMI was the highest at ca. 1,000 mOsm/kg, which is similar to the osmolality of seawater. Sperm motility was induced by osmolality of diluents, but exposure to hypotonic or hypertonic diluents was harmful to the sperm.

A stable cell line, BSBS (black seabream spleen), was established from the cells in spleen of black seabream, Acanthopagrus schlegeli, and characterized. Subculture maintained more than 60 passages and mophologically, BSBS cell was epithelioid cell. The cells grew optimally at 20℃ in Leibovitz's L-15 medium supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum with incubation temperature of 20℃. BSBS cells supported the growth of marine birnavirus (MABV Y-6), chum salmon reovirus (CSV), spring viremia of carp virus (SVCV) and hirame rhabdovirus (HIRRV). Thus, the new cell line may be useful for studying wide range of fish viruses.

Experiments were performed to find out the proper conditions of diluents for the short-tenn storage of sperm of black seabream, Acanthopagrus schlegeli. For milt collection, brood stock was reared in a recirculating seawater system. The following results indicated that short-term storage methods with fresh condition could tie employed in black seabream sperm. When the black seabream's serum was used as a diluent for the fresh storage, sperm activity index (SAI), fertilization rate and survival rate derived the best result in $7\~10\;days$ of storage. pH 7 and 8 showed the highest SAI in the same storage condition. In order to keep high SAI and survival rate of the sperm, addition of 800 ppm neomycine into the diluent revealed the best storage results.

We compared the nutritional requirements of whole larvae of the black seabream Acanthopagrus schlegeli, sweet fish Plecoglossus altivelis, olive flounder Paralichthys olivaeus and rock fish Sebastes schlegeli. The larvae were 20, 30, 14 and 5 DAH (or spawning) of black seabream, sweet fish, olive flounder and rock fish, respectively. Specific ${\alpha}$-amylase activity (mU/mg protein) was highest (8,324.9 mU/mg protein) in rock fish larvae (P<0.05). Specific trypsin-like protease activity was highest (11,330.1 mU/mg protein) in black seabream larvae (P<0.05), which also exhibited the highest activity, 685.5 mU/mg dry weight (P<0.05). The specific activities per mg protein and mg dry weight of black seabream were the highest (187.4 mU/mg protein and 11.3 mU/mg dry weight, respectively) (P<0.05). A/P, P/L and A/L ratios of rock fish were 1.47, 90.3 and 133.1, respectively (P<0.05). We present here basic larval digestive enzymatic nutritional requirement data.

In order to develop a method for the cryopreservation of fish embryos, the determination of optimal concentrations of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), ethylene glycol and glycerol as individual cryoprotectants was performed by using the early embryos of black seabream, Acanthopagrus schlegeli. Optimal concentrations of cryoprotectants were assessed in terms of effects on mortality, median lethal concentration and hatching rate of embryos. The mortality of black seabream embryos immersed in cryoprotectants was related to the concentrations of cryoprotectants and immersion times. The toxicity to embryos was lower in order of DMSO, < ethylene glycol, < glycerol. The results from the mortality, median lethal concentration and hatching rate evaluations suggest that DMSO was the most effective cryoprotectant for black seabream embryos followed by ethylene glycol, and suitable concentrations of DMSO and ethylene glycol were 2.0∼2.25M and 1.0∼1.78M, respectively, with 20 minutes of immersion time.
