Description:Experiments were conducted to optimize triploid induction parameters, and assess triploid sterility, in burbot. Duration and timing of shocks were based on degree minutes, temperature multiplied by time, denoted as °C min. Hydrostatic shock experiments investigated the duration of shock using 7500 or 8500 psi at 180°C min post‐fertilization. Thermal shocks investigated duration of shock and post‐fertilization shock timing using a shock of 16°C. Sterility experiments investigated egg survival when diploids were crossed with triploids. Hydrostatic shock of 7500 psi for 10 or 20°C min can induce triploidy ≥90% and exhibits survival that is statistically similar, p ≤ 0.05, to controls. Hydrostatic shock of 8500 psi for 5 or 10°C min yielded triploid induction of 93% and 100%, respectively, with survival that is statistically similar to controls, p ≤ 0.05. Thermal induction experiments indicated shocks at 120°C min post‐fertilization, for durations between 350 and 450°C min, have potential to induce triploidy ≥90% while facilitating survival statistically similar to controls, p ≤ 0.05. Induction of tetraploidy was observed. Sterility experiments determined that triploid burbot are functionally sterile. These results may allow production of burbot where sterility is required.
