We compared the proportions of mammalian-type and reptilian-type nephrons in the kidneys of two species of passerine birds. The desert house sparrow (Passer domesticus) is relatively well adapted for water conservation, whereas the white-crowned sparrow (Zonotrichia leucophrys) is more mesic adapted

## Abstract Previous studies of reptilian epidermis have shown that scales contain both a and feather fibrous proteins. The outer stratum (feather) and inner stratum (a) of snake (Boa constrictor) scales were separated and the tissue extracted with 6 M urea in 0.1 M Tris, pH 9.0, with 0.1 M mercapt
A comparison of glycoproteins of the zona pellucida @P) of five different mammalian species (cat, dog, rabbit, pig, and rat) has been made using polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies. In a n enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), polyclonal antisera against total rabbit and pig ZP recognize their
The presence of an ovarian follicular hierarchy is a characteristic feature of reptiles and birds. The hierarchy contains follicles at all stages of maturation and therefore, varying degrees of sensitivity to the ovulation-inducing effects of the gonadotropins. In the hen, ovulability is gained as t
