SEX DIFFERENTIATION IN THE PACIFIC SALMON ONCORHYNCHUS KETA (WALBAUM)

Abstract: The differentiation of the gonad is described in chum salmon embryos and alevins. Contrary to classical findings in teleosts, sex differentiation in the chum salmon proceeds in the male or female direction without an intermediate female phase. From an initially indifferent gonad there is a progressive development of one sex or the other. The organ forms as a fold from the splanchnic mesoderm and, at the time of first appearance, contains primordial germ cells. These enlarge to form the definitive germ cells wh… Show more

“…looked that there may be sex differences in relation both to the onset and the extent of proliferation in the germ cells (Hardisty, 1967). In a number of fish species there have been reports that mitotic activity may take place earlier or on a more extensive scale in female embryonic or larval gonads (Ashby, 1957;Essenberg, 1923;Eigenmann, 1896;Johnston, 1951 ;Mozzi, 1954;Robertson, 1953;Rodolico, 1933;Vallowe, 1957;Wolf, 1931). A similar picture is presented by the length distribution of the cystic gonads (stage 11) in which many of the germ cells are in meiotic prophase.…”

“…Chez la Truite, un développement important de la région antérieure de la gonade serait le témoignage d'une différenciation ovarienne (Ashby, 1957). De même, chez le Saumon (Robertson, 1953 ;Laird et al, 1978) et chez Oryzias, (Onitake, 1972) Bruslé, 1978b ;Bruslé, 1980Bruslé, , 1982. C'est pourquoi, le critère de différenciation sexuelle précoce généralement adopté, à l'échelle de la microscopie photonique, est celui de l'entrée en prophase méiotique qui caractérise les ovocytes par opposition à une méiose spermatocytaire beaucoup plus tardive.…”

“…Chez cette dernière espèce, le gradient n'a pas été confirmé par Yoshikawa et Oguri (1979,19811 (Mezhnin, 1978). Un net gradient caudocranien, tant de colonisation des crêtes génitales par les CGP que de différen-ciation ovarienne ou testiculaire, est évident chez le Loup Dicentrarchus (Roblin et Bruslé, 1983 (Roblin, 1980 (Robertson, 1953 ;Ashby, 1957) Sakun, 1980). Au contraire, chez Micropterus, la partie la plus développée de la gonade se situe dans la zone postérieure (Johnston, 1951 Harrington, 1975 ;Serranus : Bruslé, 1982, 1983 que chez les hermaphrodites successifs (Sparidés tels que la Daurade, Labridés tels que la girelle : Reinboth, 1962Reinboth, , 1970 (Atz, 1964) mais aussi chez les hermaphrodites synchrones (Harrington, 1975 ;Bruslé, 1983 (De Smet, 1975 ;Lebrun, 1977 ;Yoshikawa et Oguri, 1978a, b).…”
