Effects of LH-RH and des-gly10[D-Ala6]LH-RH-ethylamide on plasma sex steroid profiles in adult female coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch)
Abstract
17 beta-Estradiol, testosterone, and 17 alpha, 20 beta dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (17 alpha 20 beta P) levels were measured in plasma samples obtained from coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) during the preovulatory period and following the injection of mammalian gonadotropin releasing hormones.
