Acute toxicity of alpha-cypermethrin to guppy (Poecilia reticulata, Pallas, 1859).
نویسندگان
چکیده
Alpha-cypermethrin is a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide used to control pests in domestic, industrial and agricultural situations. Adult male guppy fish (Poecilia reticulata standard test species) were selected for the bioassay experiments. The experiments were performed in four series and the 96-h LC50 value was determined for guppies. The acute toxicity experiments were carried out by static method and behavioral changes in guppies were determined for each alpha-cypermethrin (98% technical grade) concentration. Data obtained from the alpha-cypermethrin investigation were evaluated by the use of probit analysis statistical method and the 96-h LC50 value for guppy was estimated as 9.43 microg/l.

New method for visualization of C-heterochromatin in synaptonemal complex spreads
DAPI staining of the metaphase chromosomes pretreated with barium hydroxide generates a C-like banding pattern. In this work a protocol for visualizing similar pattern at the synaptonemal complex (SC) spreads after immunostaining is suggested. This method was used to visualize centromeric and sex heterochromatin at the SC spreads of guppy fish (Poecilia reticulata Peters, 1859). The efficiency ...

The reproductive response on the fecundity of ornamental fish guppy (Poecilia reticulata) indicates that the 0.01% concentration of natrum muriaticum 30 c potency is more significant than other concentrations. It was suggested that 0.01% concentration enhance the fecundity and increase the production of guppy.
