Summary.

The pituitary of female `torpid' mice at the age of sexual maturity was deficient in prolactin cells. This deficiency is thought to contribute to the infertility of the affected mice.

Reproduction is committed to supporting researchers in demonstrating the impact of their articles published in the journal.

The two types of article metrics we measure are (i) more traditional full-text views and pdf downloads, and (ii) Altmetric data, which shows the wider impact of articles in a range of non-traditional sources, such as social media.
