Abstract

Heat and cold shock were applied for triploid induction in the edible oyster Crassostrea madrasensis. Triploidy was confirmed by metaphase-spread preparation. The highest triploid induction by cold shock (5°C: 10 min) was 42.2% at larval stage and 33.3% at 'D' stage. With heat shock at 35°C (5 min) triploid percentage was 42% during larval stage and 39.1% at 'D' stage.
