Estrogens have been examined in the plasma of diploid and triploid newts Pleurodeles waltlii. Estradiol-17 beta (E2) and estrone (E1) were determined by radioimmunoassay, before and after enzymatic hydrolysis of the conjugates. Total (t) and unconjugated (u) E2 levels were positively correlated (E2u = 0.478 35 E2t + 0.579 98; r = 0.883), but no correlation was detected between E1 levels. No statistical difference was found for the estrogen levels between the different experimental lots of diploid newts (E2t = 7.5 +/- 0.37 ng/ml, E2u = 4.3 +/- 0.20 ng/ml, E1t = 2.19 +/- 0.08 ng/ml, E1t = 0.41 +/- 0.02 ng/ml) but every estrogen level was lower in the triploid group (E2t = 1.8 +/- 0.60, E2u = 1.0 +/- 0.18, E1t = 1.4 +/- 0.13, E1u = 0.3 +/- 0.04 ng/ml). This difference is discussed in relation to lower fertility of the triploid females.
