Abstract This study determined the effect of triploidy on the survival, growth and gonadal development of turbot from 6 to 48 months of age. From 6 to 24 months of age (first sexual maturity), survival was similar in both ploidies ( P  > 0.05). From 24 to 48 months of age, after the first sexual maturity, survival was 91.9% in diploids and 100% in triploids, which did not exhibit the post-spawning-associated mortality. Growth was similar for both ploidies during the first year of life. After that, triploids grew significantly ( P P P

• Welfare Considerations of Triploid Fish (2012, background): “One area where triploids consistently outperform diploids in survival rates is during the stressful period of sexual maturation (Inada and Taniguchi, 1991; Yamamoto and Iida, 1995a; Gillet et al., 2001; Cal et al., 2006).”
