Effect of photoperiod on body mass, food intake and body composition in the field vole, Microtus agrestis.
Many small mammals respond to seasonal changes in photoperiod by altering body mass and adiposity. These animals may provide valuable models for understanding the regulation of energy balance. Here, we present data on the field vole (Microtus agrestis) - a previously uncharacterised example of photoperiod-induced changes in body mass. We examined the effect of increased day length on body mass,...

Hypothalamo-hypophysial control of ovulation in the vole (Microtus agrestis).
Electrical stimulation of the anterior hypothalamus of the vole, Microtus agrestis, usually results in ovulation, whereas stimulation of areas in the posterior hypothalamus do not. Ovulation can also be elicited by injections of sheep median-eminence extracts, and by preparations ofsheep luteinizing hormone. Observations on the number of corpora lutea formed, and ripe Graafian follicles remaini...
متن کاملPhotoperiodic control of testis activity in the vole, Microtus agrestis.
Under natural conditions the vole (Microtus agrestis) breeds in the spring and summer but not in the autumn and winter. This seasonal change was attributed by Baker & Ranson (1933) to the influence of hours of sunshine, and in the laboratory it has been shown that photoperiod affects the growth ofgonads and maintenance of their activity (Baker & Ranson, 1932; Clarke & Kennedy, 1967; Breed & Cla...
متن کاملSebaceous glands on the hindquarters of the vole, Microtus agrestis.
on the hindquarters at the age of about 3 months. In the following 1 to 2 months, hair is lost from these regions revealing raised patches of bright pink skin. Each patch is about 20 mm long and 15 mm wide, has a coarse texture, one or two characteristic folds (Pl. 1, Fig. 1) and a musty odour. Histologically, the skin contains very greatly enlarged holocrine sebaceous glands (Pl. 1, Fig. 2). T...
