ABSTRACT Reproduction in scallops, as in many broadcast-spawning invertebrates, involves the production of a gonad that can become the largest tissue in the body. Gonad maturation leads to mobilization of macmmolecular reserves from somatic tissues in many scallops. Because ovaries typically contain higher energetic contents than testes, we examined whether the energetic investment in gonad production and spawning and the impact on somatic tissues was greater in temale than male Ic...
