摘要: The presence/absence of androgen receptors is examined in two sexually dimorphic features frogs: the nuptial pad and external oblique muscle. Immunohistochemistry reveals that both males females possess these tissues. Males have a higher density immunopositive nuclei muscle than do females. presence male female tissues consistent with results from hormone experiments which supplements induce expression enlarge muscles castrated ovariectomized
