    Abstract


    The abalone species, H. diversicolor, is a high-value marine gastropod widely distributed in tropical and subtropical coastal waters, including Vietnam. In response to the decline of wild seed resources, artificial seed production has emerged as a key strategy for resource restoration and sustainable aquaculture development. This paper provides a comprehensive review of domestic and international studies on the reproductive biology of H. diversicolor, encompassing gonadal development, reproductive seasonality, environmental drivers, spawning behavior, and hatchery/ induced - spawning techniques. Comparative analysis indicates that countries such as Japan and South Korea,.. have adopted advanced molecular biotechnology and seed production protocols, whereas Vietnam still faces significant gaps in research capacity and technological readiness. The review also highlights existing knowledge gaps, particularly in reproductive endocrinology and the critical bottleneck during the metamorphosis from veliger larvae to spat. Building upon this critical review, the authors propose future research directions aimed at enhancing artificial seed production efficiency, ensuring a reliable supply of high-quality seed, and fostering the sustainable development of abalone aquaculture in Vietnam.
