New contributions to knowledge of embryonic malformations in guppies

Abstract

This paper is an amendment added to our older studies which were previously disseminated worldwide through various ways. We hereby withdraw the conclusion that teratogenic effects observed iin guppy, in 2006, were due to chloramphenicol. The paper also describes some cases of Siamese twins, their ontogenetic development and highlights their similarities with the cases seen in humans.
