Method for improving emission ratio of pinctada maxima parent gamete

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for improving the emission ratio of pinctada maxima parent gametes and belongs to the technical field of shellfish culture. The method concretely comprises the following steps of: selecting individuals with higher activity and plump gonads from a 3-year or 4-year natural population or cultured population as parents; cleaning attachments from the surfaces of shell bodies, and soaking for 1-2 minutes by utilizing 0.02% potassium permanganate solution; soaking the parents in 0.02%-0.05% 5-hydroxytryptamine solutions for 30-50 minutes. The method disclosed by the invention can effectively and fast promote the emission of the pinctada maxima parent gametes and improve the survival rate of the parents and has the advantages of easiness and convenience in operation, low cost, easiness in popularization, and the like.
