โœฆ Synopsis

The glycogen body is a functionally enigmatic structure located in lumbosacral region of the spinal cord in birds. This tissue is unique to birds, and, although it is believed to be present in all species, studies on the glycogen body to date have been confined largely to the domestic chicken. The present study is the first to describe the glycogen body of the Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica) during incubation and at hatching. Light microscopy and histochemistry were used to identify the glycogen body in the spinal cord of the developing quail beginning at 7 days of incubation and to ascertain the presence of nerve fibers in that tissue at hatching.

## Abstract The development of quail embryos obtained after in vitro fertilization of oocytes ovulated in vitro was investigated. About 40% of the specimens, after 18โ€“20 hr of incubation, had undergone cleavage to reach stages IVโ€“VI when viewed under a stereo microscope. However, only 36% of these
