Additional blood samples were taken at timed intervals for up to 41 hr, and plasma testosterone and corticosterone were measured by radioimmunoassay. Plasma testosterone declined to 50% of the initial value by 4 hr and dropped to less than 10% of initial by 24 hr. Plasma corticosterone increased during the first 12 hr, declined at 24 hr, and rose again at 40 hr. Blood samples from male alligators collected in North and South Carolina, south Florida, and in south Louisiana in two consecutive breeding seasons were also assayed for testosterone and corticosterone. In these populations there were significant differences in mean plasma testosterone and corticosterone levels. Elevated corticosterone levels were consistently seen in alligators caught in traps and from which a blood sample was taken several hours later. Plasma testosterone, although consistently lower in trapped alligators, did not show a negative correlation with plasma corticosterone. Farm\u2010reared alligators bled once, released, and bled again at 24 hr also showed a highly significant suppression of testosterone secretion. These results demonstrate that stress has a rapid and dramatic effect on testicular steroid secretion in both farm\u2010reared and wild alligators.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/jez.1402390211","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,6,11]],"date-time":"2005-06-11T02:43:56Z","timestamp":1118457836000},"page":"241-246","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":92,"title":["Stress\u2010induced suppression of testosterone secretion in male alligators"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"239","author":[{"given":"Valentine A.","family":"Lance","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Ruth M.","family":"Elsey","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,5,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_1_2_1","first-page":"47","article-title":"Methods of capturing, marking and sexing alligators","volume":"17","author":"Chabreck R.
