Abstract

The aim of this study was to analyze genotoxic effects in Astyanax lacustris and to test whether there are differences in the frequency of micronuclei in relation to sex, mass and length of individuals. The samples were carried out in the Tarumã Microbasin (Upper Paraná River, State of Mato Grosso do Sul, Brazil). In this study, we described this species presented the same relative frequency of micronuclei for both sexes, and for individuals of different masses and lengths.
