A sex identification method for veneridae
shellfish parents comprises the following steps: preparing a
syringe with a
syringe needle, preparing a to-be indentified veneridae
shellfish, finding the intersection point of the lateral
ligament end and the shell edge and taking the point as an acquisition point, stably handling the to-be indentified veneridae
shellfish by using one hand, and using the other hand to align the
syringe needle of the syringe with the acquisition point, and enabling the
syringe needle to have an angle of 30-60 degree with the tangent of the shell edge, penetrating the
syringe needle into the sexual gland position of the to-be indentified veneridae shellfish through the acquisition position, extracting a sample, putting the sample on slide glass with
seawater, microscopically observing the form of the sample, if the sample is divergent in
seawater and has circular or
pear-shaped ova, identifying the indentified veneridae shellfish is female, if the sample is in a smog state in
seawater and has polliwog-shaped sperms, identifying the indentified veneridae shellfish is male, and if the sample comprises circular or
pear-shaped ova and polliwog-shaped sperms, identifying the indentified veneridae shellfish is hermaphroditic.
