Sumario: | Our study will utilize as experimental model the freshwater snail Pomacea
canaliculata (Architaenioglossa, Ampullariidae), which is an intermediate host of
human parasites and a notorious invasive species also used as bioindicator of
environmental pollution. The project proposes studies of the effect of organotins
on reproductive processes of this apple snail. 1. To know the internal structure
of the seminal receptacle, the site of sperm storage and where oocytes are
fertilized. 2. To study the interaction of organotins and the development of the
female rudimentary copulatory apparatus, organs that continues to grow in the
adult unexposed females. 3. To determine the relation between organotin
compounds and the nervous system, because of the possible inhibitory effect
on the oviposition and sexual behavior. |
