| Abstract: | Background The ovaries are the primary targets of senescence effects in mammalian and avian species. In the present study, relationships
between reproductive aging, sex steroids and the growth pattern of the pre-ovulatory follicle wall were investigated using
young hens with long clutch (YLC), old hens with long clutch (OLC), old hens with short clutch (OSC), and old hens with interrupted
long clutch (OILC). |
