The resul...In this study, comparative study on fecundity of Pomacea canaliculata from Zhangzhou (Fujian),Zhuhai (Guangdong) and Suzhou (Jiangsu)was conducted by using the method of single-pair mating . The results indicated that there was difference to fecundity of different geographic populations, and the difference was significant between Fujian and Jiangsu in individual fecundity,and the difference was also significant between Guangdong and Jiangsu, Guangdong and Fujian in relative fecundity of female. Fecundity has insignificant difference for different shell-color populations of the snails. The spawning number was independent on individual size of the male and was positively related with individual size of the female. The snails' fecundity had close relationship with the factor,including environmental condition,foods and temperature and so on.Read More
