Abstract
Ablation of the brain from hibernating Helix aspersa maintained at 25 degrees C causes a significant increase in the proliferation of male cells in the gonad, whereas the ablation of the optic tentacles has no effect. The brain, therefore, produces a factor which specifically inhibits the multiplication of spermatogonia and spermatocytes.Entities:
