abstract：:The sexual axis of rats can be rendered photoresponsive by testosterone implants. We have studied in these conditions whether rat pars tuberalis (PT) melatonin receptor density would be decreased after exposure to short photoperiod (SP) like as observed in long day seasonal breeders. The answer is no, but we observed ...
