Ultrastructural changes in female hepatocytes during ovarian maturation of Steindachnerina insculpta (Pisces: Curimatidae) Mudanças ultra-estruturais nos hepatócitos de fêmeas de Steindachnerina insculpta (Pisces: Curimatidae) durante a maturação ovariana
During gonadal maturation the females of Steindachnerina insculpta, a teleost of the Furnas reservoir, Minas Gerais, Brazil, show low hepatosomatic and high gonadossomatic indexes, suggesting possible transference of hepatic substances to the ovaries.
