Abstract:The use of carp pituitary extract (CPE) in fi sh reproduction may have drawbacks, whereas analogues of mammalian (aGnRHm) or salmon (aGnRHs) gonadotropins containing dopamine inhibitor (DI) may off er greater advantages. The objective of this study was to evaluate the eff ect of diff erent hormone inducers on the reproduction of Prochilodus brevis males. A total of 44 specimens of P. brevis were divided into six groups, namely, CPE 4.0 mg; saline solution 1.0 mL; aGnRHm+DI 0.3 mg and 0.5 mg; and aGnRHs+DI 0.25… Show more
