The preovulatory follicle of the domestic hen is almost certainly a steroid-producing structure (see Shahabi, Norton & Nalbandov, 1975). However, the details of steroidogenesis are unknown because studies are complicated by the presence of steroidogenic cells of two types, the granulosa and the thecal interstitial cells (Text-fig. 1). Furthermore, it is difficult to obtain preparations free from large amounts of yolk which interfere with the analytical techniques.
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.
