The catfish, H. fossilis, survives for long periods after hypophysectomy, although with impaired osmoregulatory mechanisms. Plasma osmolarity and cortisol levels decline significantly within 2 hr after hypophysectomy and attain the lowest values by about 27 hr. Hypophysectomy also results in a marke
## Abstract Intraperitoneal administration of testosterone for 20 days produced differential effects on Ξ²βglucuronidase and Ξ²β__N__βacetylglucosaminidase (Ξ²βGlc) activity in seminal vesicle (SV) and testis of the catfish __Heteropneustes fossilis__ in preparatory phase (March). The lower dosages of
## 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
