The effect of testosterone on the histological pattern of the gonads of the land snail Theba pisana was studied. It was found that testosterone accelerated spermatogenesis, as indicated by the large increase in the number of spermatozoa and the decrease in the number of primary spermatocytes. The diameter of the acini in treated snails was greater than in the normal controls. Conversely, testosterone led to reduction of the number of mature ova.
研究了睾酮对陆地蜗牛Theba pisana性腺组织学模式的影响。结果发现，睾酮促进了精子发生，这表现为精子数量大幅增加以及初级精母细胞数量减少。经处理的蜗牛腺泡直径大于正常对照组。相反，睾酮导致成熟卵子数量减少。
