Abstract
This study was conducted to increase the efficiency of farming practice in rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, by sex reversal and chromosome-set manipulation techniques. Induction of sex-reversed gynogenetic diploid rainbow trout males and mass production of all-female rainbow trout by genetic sex reversal was performed. Phenotypic males in the gynogenetic diploid group were induced successfully by dietary administration of 5 mg of 17 alpha-methyltestosterone per kg diet for 82 days. All females were produced by crossing between normal female and sex-reversed gynogenetic diploid male rainbow trout.
