| Species | Development state | Trait | Primary Data | Secondary Data |
| Morone saxatilis | Egg | Oocyte diameter | Fully mature and ovulated oocytes have a diameter of approximatively 1-1.2 mm before water hardening | 1.1 mm |
| Morone saxatilis | Female | Onset of oogenesis | Vitellogenic from late October. E2 and T levels covaried in females and were low in summer, increased by late October to intermediate levels maintained until January, and increased again to maximum values observed just prior to the spawning season. | ['January', 'July', 'August', 'September', 'October'] |
| Morone saxatilis | Female | Intensifying oogenesis activity | Final oocyte maturation in late April and May | ['April', 'May'] |
| Morone saxatilis | Female | Resting period | In summer, females had nothing more than primaryt growth oocytes | 4.0 months |
| Morone saxatilis | Male | Onset of spermatogenesis | Males initiated spermiogenesis by late september and spermiation by late February or early March | ['February', 'March'] |
