Magazine article from: Pacific Science Scale, Andre P. January 1, 2001 700+ words Andre P. Scale [24] In the tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus), as in many teleosts, prolactin (PRL) plays a central role in freshwater (FW) osmoregulation, acting on all osmoregulatory surfaces to reduce ion and water permeability and increase the retention of solutes. Consistent with these actions, |
