Summary.
In comparison to controls reared in isolation, female rats reared in the presence of an adult male from weaning attained puberty 5 days earlier when living in groups or almost 9 days earlier when living singly with a male. Accelerated sexual development occurred in the absence of accelerated physical growth.
