Abstract: In the present experiment effect of sublethal (LC0) and semilethal (LC50) concentration of pesticide lead nitrate on the serum glucose concentration of Heteropneustes fossilis, Heteropneustes fossilis with reference to season and sex was studied. Significant increase in the serum glucose concentration is observed in sublethal (LC0) and semilethal (LC50) concentration of pesticide. High glucose concentration is observed in breeding period as compared to pre-breeding and post-breeding period.
Keywords: Heteropneustes fossilis, lead nitrate, serum glucose.
