What is The Annual Reproductive Cycle in Mallards: Vol. Printed in Great Britain. All Rights Reserved about?

Plasma prolactin concentrations increased only towards the end of the breeding phase and were at their annual height during the summer. In photorefractory drakes removal of 90% of the testicular tissue not only increased plasma LH levels but induced complete spermatogenesis within 6 weeks. It seems that photorefractoriness in mallards is due to an increased sensitivity of the hypothalamo-hypophyseal system to the negative feedback action of testicular androgens.
