Abstract
Pituitary extracts from 560 mature Rana hexadactyla of both sexes from winter and summer seasons were collected locally and were injected into frogs from summer and winter months. The adenohypophysial gonadotrophes were studied from normal animals and from the animals injected with pituitary extracts. The pituitary cell types changed in experimental frogs in comparison to the corresponding cells of normal animals. An attempt has been made to correlate the changes of gonadotrophes with changes in spermatogenetic proliferation as reported earlier (Kasinathan and Basu, '72).
