ABSTRACT Managing the broodstock conditioning process is important to the successful establishment of an abalone industry that can reliably produce juveniles from captive stock and pursue selective breeding. Four conditioning periods of 6, 8, 10 and 12 wk intervals were tested with captive greenlip abalone (Haliotis laevigata), using a constant conditioning temperature and ambient temperature as a control. The conditioning periods of 6, 8, 10 and 12 wks are equivalent to ~420, 560, ...

Growth responses in emergent greenlip abalone to density reductions and translocations.
Journal of Shellfish Research ; ABSTRACT Growth of stunted greenlip abalone in areas with low maximum sizes was enhanced over 6 mo by reducing their natural density and by translocation to habitats supporting faster growing abalone. Density reductions significantly increased growth relative to controls, apparently without

Influence of conditioning diet and spawning frequency on variation in egg diameter for Greenlip abalone, Haliotis laevigata.
Journal of Shellfish Research ; ABSTRACT Both nutrient provisioning of eggs, during development within the ovary, and egg diameter are believed to be important factors governing the development and survival of invertebrate larvae. The diet of female broodstock and the conditioning regimen are likely to influence these parameters.
