Steroid implants for the induction of vitellogenesis in feminized European silver eels (Anguilla anguilla L.)

Steroid implants for the induction of vitellogenesis in feminized European silver eels (Anguilla anguilla L.)

Assisted propagation of the European eel will lead to a closed production cycle supplying the aquaculture industry with juvenile glass eels.
