Endocrine regulation of male sexual behavior in rough-skinned newts, Taricha granulosa : role of neurohormones

Creator:

Zoeller, Robert T.

Abstract:

To determine whether a homologous neurohormone, arginine vasotocin (AVT), can elevate the occurrence of clasping behavior in male rough-skinned newts (Taricha granulosa), intact, sexually inactive males were injected with either AVT or saline. The incidence of courtship was elevated in the group of males injected with AVT, but not in...

Reproductive cycle of the male newt Taricha granulosa : exogenous and endogenous regulation of plasma androgens

Creator:

Specker, Jennifer Lee

Abstract:

During a 13-month period starting in October of 1976, adult male rough-skinned newts (Taricha granulosa) were collected periodically to study seasonal changes in reproductive status. Plasma androgen concentration, measured by radioimmunoassay, is elevated during autumn and spring (about 50 ng/ml). Winter and summer levels are considerably lower (less than 10...

Role of male mating behavior in the induction of ovulation in rough-skinned newts, Taricha granulosa

Creator:

McCormack, Christine

Abstract:

To determine whether meiotic maturation of ovarian follicles, ovulation, and oviposition are influenced by male mating behaviors, female rough-skinned newts (Taricha granulosa) were captured prior to contact with males and maintained in simulated pond conditions. Females were either exposed to male courtship and inseminated or were isolated from male contact....
