The number of spawned broodstock was higher in the serotonin extract treatment (60%) than in the control treatment (40%), and the broodstock injected serotonin spawned up to the second re-maturation. In contrast, no re-maturation was obtained in the control treatment. The egg number was significantly higher using the serotonin extract (286,550 ± 46,402 eggs) than the control shrimp (148,585 ± 23,647 eggs), in which the serotonin extract treatment showed a comparatively larger egg diameter number. The higher expression of the genes related to female and male reproduction was observed in the tiger shrimp injected with serotonin extract than in the control treatment. ## Keywords - Broodstock - Penaeus monodon - Shrimp - Biology - Serotonin - Fishery - Aquaculture - Biochemistry - Fish - Receptor --- Sumber: Discover Unhas — RIMS Universitas Hasanuddin.
