Integrated use of biomarkers to evaluate the reproductive physiology of Astyanax fasciatus and Hoplias malabaricus males (Teleostei: Characiformes) in polluted reservoirs

Integrated use of biomarkers to evaluate the reproductive physiology of Astyanax fasciatus and Hoplias malabaricus males (Teleostei: Characiformes) in polluted reservoirs

The reproductive physiology of fish can be changed by the presence of pollutants in the water, which act as endocrine disrupting compounds (EDC). We evaluated the impacts of water contaminants in polluted reservoirs acting as possible EDC on the reproductive physiology of Astyanax fasciatus and Hopl...
