## Abstract Actinomycin D and mitomycin C, inhibitors of DNAβdependent RNA synthesis, were ineffective in blocking desoxycorticosterone (DOC)βinduced in vitro maturation in oocytes of the catfish, __Heteropneustes fossilis__ (Bloch). This suggests that a concurrent mRNA synthesis is not obligatory

Intramuscular administration of ovine luteinizing hormone (LH) or desoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA) into gravid catfish, Heteropneustes fossilis, shows that LH is a much less efficient maturation-inducing agent than DOCA. Maturational changes occur two hours earlier following DOCA injection than w
Wolf and Quimby medium and its modified chemically-defined version were found to be most suitable among the eight media tested for shortterm culture of oocytes of the catfish, Heteropneustes fossilis. The modified Wolf and Quimby was employed to evaluate the relative effectiveness of several hypophy
