Induced breeding is carried out in case of
A. Pisciculture
B. Apiculture
C. Sericulture
D. Lac Culture

Answer 1

Induced breeding is the type of breeding technology, in which the organisms are bred artificially by injecting the synthetic or extract pituitary hormones, and it is mainly used to increase the captivity of the organisms.

Complete answer:
This induced breeding technique is mainly used in the fishes, that is in pisciculture.
Induce breeding stimulates or promotes the timely increase of the production of eggs and sperm from the gonads.
Because of environmental conditions such as photoperiods, rains, temperature and insufficient release of hormones, and unavailability of natural food, these are all the needs for the induced breeding.
Induced breeding is very necessary for fish culture because it gives pure spawn of certain species of fishes, under cultivation, spawn collected from the natural water is not pure because some undesirable wild species may come with them.
Induced breeding can fulfill any quantity of demand at any time, and this technique is simple and cost effective.
This technique includes the location of the pituitary gland, removal of the gland, and preservation of the gland in either alcohol or acetone.
For induced breeding, healthy enough and ripe brooders are selected, and the age of brooders should be 2 to 4, and one to five kg body weight should be preferred.
The injection is given by means of a hypodermic syringe either infra muscular or intraperitoneal.

So induced breeding is mainly used in pisciculture.

Note: When coming to the dosage of injection, it is different in males and females, in female it is given in 2 doses that is initial and resolved doses, that is 2-3 my per kg body weight, while in resolving does it is 6 to 8mg, where as in males only single dose is given.
