The status of seed production of grouper and other coral reef fishes in the Philippines
Share
抄録
Initial work on seed production of grouper in the Philippines was first reported in 1986. Most of the work has been undertaken by the SEAFDEC Aquaculture Department (SEAFDEC/AQD), which concentrated on Epinephelus coioides. The achievements and results of SEAFDEC/AQD on breeding and larval rearing of grouper which including studies on sex inversion will be discussed. Directions for future research directions are also presented.
