hypothalamus	in the female, activity is detecable throughout the year	Heteropneustes fossilis	-
ovary	activity is found only during vitellogenesis. At the completion of vitellogenesis, ovarian aromatase activity declines sharply resulting in elevation of plasma testosterone levels	Heteropneustes fossilis	-
