Effects of Partial and Full Feed Restriction on the Plasma Levels of Thyroid Hormones and Testicular Activity in the Male Air-breathing Catfish, Clarias gariepinus during Different Phases of the Breeding Cycle
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The effects of partial and full feed restriction on the plasma levels of thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine (T3) andtesticular activity were studied in the male air-breathing catfish, Clarias gariepinus. Partial and full feedrestriction for 3 weeks significantly decreased the plasma T4 levels during the progressive and breeding phases,and decreased the plasma T3 levels only during the breeding phase. However, full feed restriction for 3 weeksincreased plasma T3 levels and T3/T4 ratio during the quiescent, progressive and regressive phases. Histologically,3 weeks of partial and full feed restriction markedly reduced the testicular activity during the progressive andbreeding phases. These results indicate that partial and full feed restriction adversely affects the thyroidhormonogenesis and testicular activity in a phase-dependent manner in C. gariepinus.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
