Abstract
It was shown experimentally that both the growth and total collagen content of the oviduct in the lizard Acanthodactylus scutellatus hardyi are mainly dependent on the number of eggs present. There was rapid formation of collagen if more than two eggs were present.This publication has 2 references indexed in Scilit:
