## Abstract UV irradiation of the vegetal pole of stage 2 X. laevis embryos with doses of 6000โ18000 ergs/mm^2^ delayed or inhibited cytokinesis in the vegetal hemisphere. Nuclear division continued so that a syncytium was formed, the size and persistence of which depended on the dose. Embryos whic
In two separate 120-d depletion studies conducted previously, adult frogs (Xenopus laevis) fed a low boron diet (-B; 62 g B/kg feed) for either 28 d or 12 d produced a greater proportion of necrotic eggs and fertilized embryos that abnormally gastrulated at a greater rate and were substantially less
Many chemicals released into the environment have estrogenic activity and can disrupt animal development and the function of endocrine systems. In order to study the effects of estrogens on aquatic animals, we examined the effects of certain estrogens on early development in Xenopus laevis. X. laevi
