Title: EFFECT OF VASOTOCIN AND OXYTOCIN ON OVIPOSITION IN THE HEN
Abstract: Summary. Intravenous injection of vasotocin in the hen induced premature oviposition within a few minutes. The sensitivity of the oviduct both to vasotocin and oxytocin rose towards the time of normal oviposition. Vasotocin exhibited a much greater oviposition-inducing activity than oxytocin.
