16) Physiologic data
I do not know of any physiological studies other than endocrine measurements.
17) Other resources
Fibroblast cell strains are available of a number of animals by contacting Dr. Oliver Ryder at CRES in the San Diego Zoo (oryder@ucsd.edu).
18) Other remarks – What additional Information is needed?
Details of early implantation especially are absent. More endocrine data are needed.
