[Seasonal variations in plasma progesterone in the pine marten (Martes foina), a species with delayed implantation].
Luteal function in Pine Marten (Martes foina), species which exhibit delayed implantation, shows low progesterone plasma levels during the major part of diapause. A significant increase occurs before implantation. These results confirm histological appearance observed in lutea corpora.
