U.S.-Japan Joint Seminar: Reproduction and Early Life History in the Scorpaenid genus Sebastes/June 1989/ Honolulu, HI

该奖项将支持由夏威夷大学的George W. Boehlert教授和日本北海道大学的Juro Yamada教授联合举办的“Scorpaenid Genus sebases的繁殖和早期生活史”研讨会。与会者将于1989年6月26日至30日在夏威夷檀香山举行会议，总结目前的知识并交流有关该鱼类属的最新研究成果。岩鱼属包括岩鱼，分布在温带和亚北极海域，为美国、日本和其他国家提供了重要的渔业资源。然而，这些渔业资源正在减少，美国和日本都在进行繁殖、胚胎发生和幼虫生长的动态研究，以确定这种减少的原因。本次研讨会将讨论这些研究的最新成果。此外，北美和日本赛巴斯在生殖各方面的差异可以使研究人员有机会扩大他们的知识，这次研讨会也将使这一领域的工作人员能够利用这一机会。

This award will support a seminar, "Reproduction and Early Life History in the Scorpaenid Genus Sebastes," organized jointly by Prof. George W. Boehlert of the University of Hawaii and Prof. Juro Yamada of Hokkaido University, Japan. Participants will meet in Honolulu, Hawaii June 26-30, 1989 to summarize current knowledge and to exchange recent research results concerning this fish genus. The genus Sebastes, which includes rockfish, occurs worldwide in temperate and subarctic seas and has supported important fishery resources in the U.S., Japan, and other countries. However, these fishery resources are in decline, and studies of the dynamics of reproduction, embryogenesis, and larval growth have been undertaken in both the U.S. and Japan in an effort to determine causes for this decline. Recent results on these studies will be discussed at this seminar. Further, differences in various aspects of reproduction between North American and Japanese Sebastes can give researchers an opportunity for expanding their knowledge, and this seminar will also enable workers in this field to take advantage of this opportunity.
