Sperm Storage, Delayed Ovulation, and Menstruation of the Female Rickett's Big-Footed Bat (Myotis ricketti)
並列摘要
We studied the reproductive cycle of female Myotis ricketti, a piscivorous bat widely distributed throughout Asia. Copulation occurred from Oct. to Apr., sperm was stored by females, and ovulation was delayed until arousal from hibernation (in May and June). Menstruation was observed during the preovulatory period; this is the 1st report of this phenomenon in the Vespertilionidae. The serum concentration of estradiol (E2) dramatically increased at menstruation. Concentrations of progesterone (P4) in non-pregnant bats did not significantly change. Experiments to explore the effect of hormones on sperm storage and delayed ovulation showed that females continued to store spermatozoa 1 wk after an ovariectomy; all oocytes were in meiosis I in Nov.; and the single graafian follicle developed by the ovary could not be induced to ovulate by 10 IU human chorionic gonadotropin in Dec. http://zoolstud.sinica.edu.tw/Journals/47.2/215.pdf
