Resumo: | Prochilodus brevis Steindachner 1875, is a native freshwater fish species and understanding its reproductive biology is important for its conservation and management. The present work verified the reproductive aspects of P. brevis and the environmental parameters of the reservoir Marechal Dutra, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. The fish were captured, measured, weighed and dissected. The gonads were removed, weighed and examined in order to separate the sexes, and to assess the stage of gonad maturation. Histological studies were carried out for microscopic characterization of the gonads. The gonadosomatic index, sex ratio, fecundity, type of spawning and the spawning period were estimated in relation to rainfall. P. brevis presented a sex proportion of 1.2M:1F. The macroscopic characteristics of the gonads indicated three stages of development: maturing, mature and spent. The microscopic analyses showed four phases of ovarian maturation for the females (initial maturing, final maturing, initial mature and final mature) and three phases of testicular maturation for the males (maturation, mature and spent). The average fecundity was 75.465 mature oocytes, varying from 52.512 to 98.418. The relative frequency distribution of the oocyte diameter sizes indicates that the study species is a total spawner. The values of gonadosomatic index ranged from 0.30 to 20.08 for females and from 1.50 to 6.00 for males. The reproductive period of this species occurred during December to May, coinciding with the rainy season.Keywords: Reproduction; gonadosomatic index; rainfall; gonadal development. |

O presente trabalho teve como objetivo verificar os aspectos da reprodução de P. brevis e os parâmetros ambientais do açude Marechal Dutra, Rio Grande do Norte, Brasil. Os peixes foram capturados, medidos, pesados e dissecados. As gônadas foram removidas e pesadas para identificação do sexo e determinação macroscópica dos estádios de maturação das gônadas. A caracterização microscópica dos estádios de maturação das gônadas foi realizada através de estudos histológicos. Foram avaliados o Ãndice gonadossomático, a proporção sexual, a fecundidade, o tipo de desova e a época de desova em relação a pluviosidade. P. brevis apresentou uma proporção sexual de 1,2M:1F para os indivÃduos amostrados. As caracterÃsticas macroscópicas das gônadas indicaram três estádiosdematuração gonadal: em maturação, maduro e esvaziado. As caracterÃsticas microscópicas permitiram estabelecer quatro estádios de desenvolvimento gonadal para fêmeas (em maturaçãoinicial, em maturação final, maduro inicial, maduro final) e três estádios para machos (emmaturação, maduro e esvaziado).A fecundidade absoluta apresentou uma amplitude de 52,512 a 98,418 ovócitos vitelogênicos, com média de 75,465. A espécie apresentou desova total, confirmada através da distribuição de frequência relativa do diâmetro dos ovócitos vitelogênicos.Os valores dos Ãndices gonadossomáticos variaram de 0,30 a 20,08 para fêmeas e 1,50 a 6,00 para machos. O perÃodo reprodutivo da espécie ocorreu durante dezembro a maio, coincidindo com o perÃodo das chuvas.Palavras-chave: Reprodução, Ãndice gonadossomático, pluviosidade, desenvolvimento gonadal.Universidade Federal do AmapáCNPqNascimento, Márcia Maria doNascimento, Wallace SilvaChellappa, Naithirithi T.Chellappa, Sathyabama2012-12-27info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigo Avaliado pelos Paresapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.unifap.br/index.php/biota/article/view/47710.18561/2179-5746/biotaamazonia.v2n2p31-43Biota Amazônia (Biote Amazonie, Biota Amazonia, Amazonian Biota); v. 2, n. 2 (2012); 31-432179-5746reponame:Biota Amazôniainstname:Universidade Federal do Amapá (UNIFAP)instacron:UNIFAPporhttps://periodicos.unifap.br/index.php/biota/article/view/477/v2n2p31-43.pdfDireitos autorais 2012 Biota Amazônia (Biote Amazonie, Biota Amazonia, Amazonian Biota)http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2016-04-18T19:59:20Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/477Revistahttp://periodicos.unifap.br/index.php/biotaONGhttps://periodicos.unifap.br/index.php/biota/oai||juliosa@unifap.br2179-57462179-5746opendoar:2016-04-18T19:59:20Biota Amazônia - Universidade Federal do Amapá (UNIFAP)false |
