| The reptile Kinosternon scorpioides is a freshwater chelonian, popularly known as jurará, and is found in the Baixada Maranhense, Maranhão State, Brazil. Due to the lack of scientific information on the reproductive biology of the species, current paper describes the body and testicular biometry and the gonad-somatic index (GSI) in adult specimens collected from the natural environment. Twenty male adults were collected in the rainy (n = 10) and dry (n = 10) seasons. Data were derived from the body, testis size and GSI and tests of correlation between these measures were performed. The body biometrics of free-living Kinosternon scorpioides is similar to those found in other studies for adult animals bred in captivity. The body weight was higher in animals... |

| The maternal recognition of pregnancy is the period when the conceptus signals its presence to the mother. This is an important moment of pregnancy, which can be decisive for the progress of pregnancy. During gestation, there is a series of events involving progesterone and prostaglandins produced by corpus luteum, a temporary gland formed from a single ovulation follicle. The progesterone produced by corpus luteum is a steroid involved in both ovarian cyclicity and the establishment and maintenance of pregnancy in most mammals. Some peculiarities of the events involved in the maternal-fetal relationship during pregnancy recognition among domestic species have been discussed in this review, one of them is the key role of interferon-tau protein (INF-T)... |
