## Abstract A sexually dimorphic nucleus is located in the preoptic area of Japanese quail and plays a key role in the activation of male copulatory behavior. The medial preoptic nucleus (POM) is significantly larger in adult male than in adult female quail. Its volume is steroidβsensitive in adult
Differences in neuron density and number are associated with seasonal plasticity and sexual dimorphism in the avian song control system. In previous studies, neuron density and number in this system have been quantified primarily through nonstereological approaches in thick tissue sections by using
