Effect of tributyltin oxide exposure on the F^sub 0^ and F^sub 1^ generations of a marine teleost, the mummichog Fundulus heteroclitus

The effects of organotin compounds on marine organisms, especially on their reproduction, are a continuing source of concern. We performed full-life-cycle exposure tests of tributyltin oxide (TBTO) at sub-lethal concentrations (0.13, 0.25, 0.5 and 1.0 µg/l) using a marine fish, the mummichog Fundulu...
