Hormonal Masculinization Impact Of 17α– Mt On The Growth Of Sex Reversed Gymnocorymbus Ternetzi (Boulenger)

B. Uma

Abstract :

At sub–optimal dose (200µg/l) of 17α–Methyltestosterone (17α–MT) exposure, there was growth increment in both Gymnocorymbus.ternetzi males (3.17%) and females (1.3%) than their respective controls. However, growth decrement was observed at optimal (400 µg/l) and super–optimal doses (600 and 800 µg/l) in a higher percentage for females than males, probably indicating that genetic females which were not amenable for hormonal impact suffered the most than genetic males.
