“…Therefore, gynogenesis may be profitably used to remove hereditary taints in hatchery broodstock. Homozygosity is also increased in triploids obtained by blocking the second meiotic division, but manifestation of deleterious recessive alleles may be prevented by the third allele of paternal origin (STANLEY et al 1984). Conversely, haploidy almost completely impaired normal development in sea bass, as also reported in other marine fish (PUKDOM 1993).…”

“…1988). Triploid hybrids have sometimes expressed increased growth (Stanley et al 1984;Benfey et al 19891, improved disease resistance (Dorsen and Ghevassus 1984;Parsons et al 1986;Dorsen et al 1991) and earlier saltwater tolerance (Seeb et al 1993) compared with one or both of their parental species.…”

“…zero gametogenesis controls) and may be detrimental to their saleability for human consumption and risky for their use in genetic confinement. Numerous hypotheses have been suggested to explain the difference in growth and survival between diploid and triploid bivalves, including polyploid gigantism (Guo & Allen 1994a), heterozygosity (Stanley et al 1984, Hawkins et al 2000, gene dosage (Zouros et al 1996) and, of course, sterility (Allen & Downing 1986), which would allow energy reallocation from gonadic development to somatic growth. However, probably due to the relative technical difficulty of quantifying reproductive allocation in oysters, this factor has seldom been recorded when comparing growth performance between diploid and triploid oysters (e.g.…”
