“…The mean PGSI values were similar between the two groups. These results are comparable to long-term data on the induced spawning of common carp at a large-scale hatchery production (Szabó et al, 2000). They are also similar to the data from ovulatory experiments on common carp carried out in the spawning season period (Kucharczyk et al, 2008).…”

Hormone preparations are used by fish farmers for artificial propagation of fish. In practice, acetone-dried common carp pituitary is the most commonly used agent to induce ovulation. In the last two decades the supply of glands has reduced and the market price has soared. The aim of our research was to compare the effects of silver carp pituitary (SCP) to those of common carp pituitary (CCP) on different reproductive traits. Experiments were performed over the large-scale breeding of northern pike (Esox lucius) and common carp (Cyprinus carpio). Ovulation rate of northern pike females for both groups was 70.4% in the first experimental year. In the second year, ovulation rates were 94.4% and 87% for the CCP and SCP groups, respectively. The relative amounts of stripped eggs (PGSI) for the two groups were similar (14.3%) in the first year. In the second year PGSI values were 18.7±3.43% and 20.1±3.92% for the CCP and SCP groups, respectively. Fertilization rates for the two groups were similar in both experimental years. Ovulation rates for common carp females induced by CCP and SCP were 66.7% and 100%, respectively. In the CCP group PGSI was 13.7±5.49%, while in the SCP group is was 14.5±2.32%.With the exception of ovulation rate of common carp, all reproductive traits for the two treatments were statistically similar. According to our research, SCP could be suitable to have wide application for induced ovulation of fish in the future.

“…The availability of mature male common carp broodstock is the first step in breeding practices conducted on a production scale (Szabó et al 2000). Obtaining carp sperm and eggs under natural conditions is very problematic, so the breeding of these fish is performed mainly under controlled conditions.…”

Sperm quality and selected biochemical markers of seminal plasma at the beginning of the reproductive period of common carp, Cyprinus carpio L.

Changes in semen quality and selected biochemical markers were analyzed during a week of spawning season of common carp Cyprinus carpio L. Semen was obtained twice, on May 30 and on June 7, and each time it was collected 24 h after hormonal stimulation using Ovopel [(D-Ala 6 , Pro 9 NEt)-mGnRH ? metoclopramide] in 1 pellet kg -1 . The total volume of semen (ml), volume of semen per kg of body weight (ml kg -1 b.w.), sperm concentration (910 9 ml -1 ), total number of sperm per kg of body weight (910 9 kg -1 b.w.), pH of semen, pH of seminal plasma, seminal plasma osmotic pressure (mOsm kg -1 ) and the total protein content in seminal plasma (mg ml -1 ) were determined. A 10 mM Tris buffer containing 100 mM NaCl with 0.5 % BSA (pH 9.0, osmolality 200 mOsm kg ), movement linearity (LIN, %), wobbling index (WOB, %), amplitude of lateral head displacement (ALH, lm) and beat cross-frequency (BCF, Hz). The volume of semen per kg of BW, total number of sperm per kg of BW and semen pH were significantly lower at the second semen sampling compared to the first semen sampling. Volume of semen at the second sampling correlated positively with CASA parameters. A lack of differences among CASA parameters between both collection periods indicates good quality of carp sperm hormonally stimulated with Ovopel twice at a 1-week interval.

“…Most research on common carp spawning has focused on fish under intensive culture in Europe and Asia (Gupta, 1975; Crivelli, 1981; Fida et al ., 1988; Szabo et al ., 2000). From the few studies in natural systems it is clear that patterns differ between disparate environments (Swee & McCrimmon, 1966; Shikhshabekov, 1972; Fida et al ., 1988).…”

Gonado‐somatic indices and macroscopic and histological changes to gonads were monitored in an aggregate sample of 231 male and female common carp Cyprinus carpio(359–755 mm total length LT) from the River Murray in South Australia between November 2001 and October 2002. Histological inspection was most accurate and macroscopic inspection was not possible for males as discrete reproductive stages could not be distinguished. Histological photographs and descriptions are provided for each stage of ovary, testis and oocyte development. Only one (female) fish >350 mm LT was classified as immature. Spawning occurred initially over at least 7 months, from mid‐November 2001 to mid‐May 2002, and it began again in mid‐September 2002. This is the longest duration recorded for common carp spawning in Australia. Spawning was asynchronous within the population and each female may have spawned up to three discrete batches of eggs. These data have implications for the control of common carp populations and environmental flow management in the region.
