Abstract excerpt
Fish from several polluted environments in North America have been found to partially lose the ability to induce cytochrome P4501A (CYP1A) via aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) activation, a characteristic known as CYP1A refractory phenotype. We aimed to determine whether such a phenotype might occur in neotropical fishes. Female Poecilia vivipara and Phalloceros caudimaculatus, livebearer fishes, were sampled from...
