The eggs expelled shortly after ovulation by means of a systematic fivefold a week stripping attempt of females, presented a high viability rate (72%) compared to that of eggs collected twice a week (46%) whereas the treatments did not have any effect on female fecundity. Increase of the stripping rhythm brought the hatching rates and broodstock fertilities respectively from 11% to 35% and from 20,000 to 65,000 larvae/kg of spawning female. The enhancement of egg quality and of the resulting larva production is discussed. PY 1991 CT ICES - C.M. 1991/F:34, pp.1-12 ID 28129 ER EF
