Reproduction
Definition:

Strobilation
Definition:
(n.) The act or phenomenon of spontaneously dividing transversely, as do certain species of annelids and helminths; transverse fission. See Illust. under Syllidian.
Example Sentences:
(1) The cestode either failed to establish or to grow; if the worms were already strobilate when inflammation developed then destrobilation occurred.
(2) Gene expression and its regulation was studied in the rat tapeworm, Hymenolepis diminuta, during strobilization.
(3) In juvenile worms from rats, the extension of the WGA- and SBA-positive region of the strobilation zone increased in length with the development of the worms.
(4) Mongolian gerbils, Meriones unguiculatus, when treated at intervals of 2-6 days with prednisolone tertiary butyl acetate, sustained infection with adult Echinococcus multilocularis in the small intestine, with the tapeworm exhibiting normal strobilation and egg production as in the natural canid host.
(5) Echinococcus multilocularis survived, strobilated and matured sexually in the small intestine of 6-week-old male golden hamsters that were either non-treated or treated with prednisolone tertiary-butylacetate (PTBA), following oral administration of 20 000 protoscoleces.
