title: Effects of adrenalectomy on the sexual behaviour of castrated and intact BDF1 mice.
abstract: Two experiments investigate the effects of adrenalectomy on the capacity of male mice of the BDF1 genotype (C57B1/6Fa male X DBA/2 female) to retain sexual behaviour following castration. Adrenalectomy is without effect and it is suggested that androgens can play no part in the maintenance of sexual behaviour in these castrates.
