Book ChapterDOI
Seasonal breeding:nature's contraceptive.
G A Lincoln,Roger V. Short +1 more
TL;DR: The seasonal cycle highlights the seasonal changes in daylight length, rutting behavior, testicular diameter, sexual skin flush, and concentrations of plasma follicle-stimulating hormone, prolactin, and testosterone in a group of rams throughout the year.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mammalian reproduction: an ecological perspective.
TL;DR: The synthesis offered here uses as its core the bioenergetic control of reproduction, reflecting primarily the caloric costs of the female's reproductive effort as they relate to the energetic costs and gains associated with her foraging effort.
Journal ArticleDOI
Control of puberty onset and fertility by gonadotropin-releasing hormone neurons.
TL;DR: Insights into pulse and surge generation are expected to aid development of therapeutic strategies ameliorating pubertal disorders and infertility in the clinic and conceptualization of its functioning in different species.
Journal ArticleDOI
Regulation of circadian rhythmicity
Joseph S. Takahashi,Martin Zatz +1 more
TL;DR: Advances in locating circadian pacemakers in the brain and in establishing model systems promise to shed light on the cellular and biochemical mechanisms involved in the generation and regulation of circadian rhythms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Seasonal control of energy requirements for thermoregulation in the djungarian hamster (Phodopus sungorus), living in natural photoperiod
TL;DR: All seasonal changes were similar inPhodopus living inside or outside, suggesting that seasonal changes in photoperiod and not seasonalChanges inTa is the overriding controller for the environmental cueing of seasonality in energy requirements for thermoregulation.
