摘要：Using the stereological Disector method to quantify relative
number of different types of oocytes in prespawning and spawning
fi sh, this study presents new insight in vitellogenic oocyte
recruitment and atresia regulation in relation to fi sh length and
condition in Icelandic cod. It is demonstrated that the Atlantic cod
is a determinate spawner and that atresia is a complex function of
several factors including presently oocyte size, spawning period,
and condition factor in the analysis.
