    Abstract:
    The endocrine mechanisms involved in the initiation of sperm release from the vertebrate testis have not been elucidated. A seasonally breeding anuran amphibian, Hyla regilla, was selected as a model for testing the hypothesis that steroid action is involved in gonadotropin-stimulated sperm release. Experiments were carried out in vivo and...
