Histological and Morphometric Analysis of Testes of Adult Quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) of Bangladesh
A histological and morphometric study was conducted to evaluate the seasonal testicular variations in the adult Japanese quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica) in Bangladesh. The weight of birds and testes, volume, length, circumference, seminiferous tubule diameter, circumference and height of germinal...
