The use of molecular biological methods to assess the effects of endocrine disrupting chemicals and natural hormones on growth in the sheepshead minnow (Cyprinodon variegatus)

The work presented in this dissertation examines possible modes of action for growth inhibition by anthropogenic endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) as well as endogenous hormones associated with growth in fish. Using the sheepshead minnow (SHM) (Cyprinodon variegatus) as a model, I developed meth...
