OVARY, TUBULAR GENITALIA AND ENDOCRINE GLANDS IN DIFFERENT PHASES OF OESTROUS CYCLE IN GOATS*

Abstract

In Alpine-Malahari crossbred goats, the weight of ovary daring the four different phases of ostrous cycle showed no significant difference. The weight was apparently more on 18th clay of the cycle when number of medium and large sized follicles were also more. Small sized follicles were seen daring all the four phases of oestrous cycle. Weight and measurements of different parts of tubular genitalia during different pluses of oestrous cycle and the weight of pituitary, adrenal and thyroid glands are also reported.
