Abstract

Summary The effect of selected hormonal preparations, i.e. ((D‐Ala6, Pro9‐NEt)‐mGnRH+metoclopramide) (Ovopel), ((D‐Arg6, Pro9‐NEt)‐sGnRH+domperidone) (Ovaprim), luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRHa), human chorionic gonadotropine (hCG) and carp pituitary extract (CPE) on the total volume of milt (TVM, ml), volume of milt per kg of body weight (VOM, ml kg−1 b.w.), sperm concentration (×109 ml−1) and total sperm production (TSP, ×109) of dace Leuciscus leuciscus (L.) has been examined. The control group (Control) included fish which milt was taken after 0.9% NaCl injection. The parameters of sperm movement were analysed with the CASA system and included: sperm motility (MOT, %), progressive motility (PRG, %), curvilinear velocity (VCL, μm s−1) and straightlinear velocity (VSL, μm s−1) of sperm, linearity of movements (LIN = 100 × VSL/VCL,%), wobbling (WOB, %), amplitude of lateral head displacement (ALH, μm) and beat cross frequency (BCF, Hz).
