Experimental design timeline for different life stages. |
Kaplan–Meier survival and hatching rates for zebrafish embryos and larvae exposed to the herbicides atrazine and diuron during their first 96 hpf and monitored for 7 days (168 hpf). |
Morphological effects of exposure to the herbicides atrazine and diuron during their first 96 hpf in zebrafish larvae at 7 dpf. |
Exploratory behavior of zebrafish larvae at 7 dpf after atrazine or diuron exposure during the initial 96 hpf. Columns depict means ± S.E.M. Sample sizes are |
Cognitive effects of atrazine or diuron exposure during the initial 96 hpf at 7 dpf larvae. Columns depict means ± S.E.M. Sample sizes are |
Effects of acute exposure to atrazine or diuron on locomotion and exploratory behavior in adult zebrafish. Columns depict means ± S.E.M. Sample sizes are |
FIGURE 7. Effects of acute exposure to atrazine or diuron on aggression and social interaction in adult zebrafish. Columns depict means ± S.E.M. Sample sizes are n = 18 for each group. (A) Atrazine exposure effects on aggressive behavior estimated by the time spent at the stimulus zone closer to the mirror (s); (B) atrazine exposure effects on the number of bites; (C) diuron exposure effects on aggressive behavior estimated by the time spent at the stimulus zone closer to the mirror (s); (D) diuron exposure effects on the number of bites; atrazine exposure effects on time mobile (s); (E) atrazine exposure effects on social behavior estimated by the time spent at the stimulus zone closer to the mirror (s); (F) atrazine exposure effects on social behavior estimated by the time spent at the stimulus zone closer to the mirror (s). Data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA followed by a post-hoc Tukey’s test. |
