## Abstract To date, our understanding of the function of testosterone in female reproductive physiology is only marginal although there are indications that testosterone is involved in modulating follicular recruitment, growth, atresia, and ovulation. Studies elevating testosterone in breeding fem

✦ Synopsis
The remarkable spatial ability of homing pigeons to return to their home loft from distant, often unfamiliar locations has proven to be a good model system for the examination of the role of

The importance of atmospheric odors for homing pigeon navigation was tested using birds from a loft located in Savannah, GA, in the southeastern United States. When released from a familiar training site, control pigeons and pigeons given intranasal injections of zinc sulfate to produce mosmia both
The "A" antigen of pigeon erythrocytes detectable by Phaseolus Zunatus lectin was given the nomenclature "Aze1" to designate it as the agglutinogen of Columba Zivia which is apparently identical to the A2 of man. This antigen appeared at day 10 in ouo and increased linearly to day 17. (The average
The distribution and appearance of microglial cell precursors in the prenatal hippocampus were examined in embryonic day 14 (E14) to E21 rats by nucleoside diphosphatase histochemistry. For comparison, the differentiation of astroglial cells was analyzed from E17 by vimentin and glial fibrillary aci
## Abstract Several workers have investigated the effect of anosmia on pigeon navigation in different geographical locations because it has been suggested that homing behavior is based on different cues, such as olfactory cues, the Earth's magnetic field or infrasound, and that in the absence of on
