(José Antonio) PY - 2012 UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10508/529 AB - Accurate methods for assessing triploidy are important because treatments designed to induce poliploidy are not 100% and offspring from treated eggs are usually a mixture of triploids and diploids. AB - Flow cytometry was more recently applied to triploidy determination and usually carried out using erythrocytes. AB - This paper describes a rapid and simple method for triploidy determination from the larval stage of turbot (Scopthalmus maximus) by flow cytometry. AB - High-quality histograms were obtained from turbot larvae and the very good reproductibility provided unambigous discrimination of diploids and triploids even in early stages development.
