Full text not available from this repository.Abstract
Dr. Suresh Babu highlighted the standardized captive breeding and seed production protocol for Black Seabream (Acanthopagrus berda), focusing on larval feeding, nursery rearing and juvenile management. Dr. Suresh Babu explained that A. berda is a commercially important seabream with considerable potential for aquaculture in India. The species is euryhaline, occurring in marine, brackishwater and low-salinity habitats, including estuaries, mangroves and coastal lagoons. It is known for its good flesh quality, consumer preference and high market value. The species exhibits protandric hermaphroditism, with smaller individuals predominantly functioning as males and larger individuals as females. Sexual conversion generally occurs around 22–24.5 cm. The breeding season under Indian conditions extends from August to February, with peak spawning reported during November to January.
