The ovine sexually dimorphic nucleus (oSDN) is 2 times larger in rams than in ewes. Sexual
differentiation of the oSDN is produced by testosterone exposure during the critical period
occurring between gestational day (GD)60 and GD90 (term, 147 d). We tested the hypothesis
that testosterone acts through the androgen receptor...
