[The effect of chick and quail embryo gonads from DDT-treated eggs on host chick embryos, tested by chorio-allontoic grafts].
In chorio-allantoic grafts, gonads from DDT-treated chick or quail eggs have oestrogenic effects on male and female chick embryo hosts. In addition, these implants can cause anomalies in the morphological differentiation of the host: diminution in size, lordosis, paralysis of the legs and alteration of the liver.
