Sperm quality of Brazilian flounder Paralichthys orbignyanus throughout the reproductive season

Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the sperm quality of Brazilian £ounder Paralichthys orbignyanus throughout its reproductive season. Sperm was collected at the beginning, middle and end of the breeding period. Spermatozoa density was maximum at the beginning (12.7 AE 0.92 Â 10 9 cells mL À 1 ) and at the end (11.8 AE 0.39 Â 10 9 cells mL À 1 ) of the breeding season (Po0.05). Sperm production and the percentage of spermatozoa moving fast forward increased signi¢cantly towards the end of the breeding seaso… Show more

“…sperm density between different species of the same genus may be caused by differences in the geographic range or by sampling at different periods during the spawning season (Lanes et al 2010). The best result among the different ionic compositions and pH values tested in this study was achieved in the extender solution at 172 mOsm and pH 8.2.…”

“…For lane snapper the Colombian coast, sperm density reported was 1.3 × 10 9 cells mL -1 (Gaitán-Espitia et al, 2013). The variation in sperm density among different species of the same genus may be caused by differences in the geographic range or by sampling at different periods during the spawning season (Lanes et al, 2010).…”

“…1995;RIVERA et al, 2001;NORBIS;GALLI, 2004) and in the mouths of rivers and streams (PLAVAN et al, 2010). This ability to live in estuarine environments together with its wide tolerance to environmental factors such as salinity and pH (WASIELESKY et al, 1997;SAMPAIO et al, 2001SAMPAIO et al, , 2002 and its high market price, make P. orbignyanus an interesting candidate for aquaculture (ROBALDO, 2003;BAMBILL et al, 2006;RADONIC et al, 2007;SAMPAIO et al, 2007;MACCHI, 2009;LANES et al, 2010).…”

“…The spawning season of P. orbignyanus extends from October to April (SILVEIRA et al, 1995;ROBALDO, 2003), with a peak of reproductive activity between January and April (LANES et al, 2010), while that of P. patagonicus lasts from September to February with a peak of maximum reproductive activity in November (MACHI; . During the rest of the year outside the breeding season it is usual to find P. orbignyanus feeding in brackish waters, coastal lagoons or rivers, whereas P. patagonicus spends the resting phase feeding in the marine environment.…”
