✦ Synopsis


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 hypophyseal and steroid hormones, as well as steroid precursors and

Experiments were conducted to evaluate the effects of mammalian hypophysial hormones, placental gonadotrophins, gonadal hormones, and adrenal corticosteroids on ovulation and spawning in three-day hypophysectomized gravid catfish. Of the hypophysial hormones tested (FSH, LH, LtH, STH, TSH, ACTH, and

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
