Temperature sensitive period of GD-3 sterility was estimated to the prepupal stage by shift-down experiment.
(18) These data suggest that the mechanism by which gonadal steroids act in the injured nervous system is partly through the differential regulation of the regenerative properties of the injured cell, presumably via hormone receptor-mediated action at the level of the neuronal genome.
(19) In the mantle of the female sea mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis seasonal variations in the adenylate cyclase activity correlate with gonadal development.
