The stimulatory effect of male agouti (Dasyprocta prymnolopha) on the onset of female puberty

The objective of this research was to analyze female agouti puberty. We did not observe the onset of puberty when the females were raised without males. When an adult male was put together with other adults and no cycling females, the onset of estrous cycle was observed after 10 to 60 days. When the...

We did not observe the onset of puberty when the females were raised without males. When an adult male was put together with other adults and no cycling females, the onset of estrous cycle was observed after 10 to 60 days. When the young females were raised with a male, the onset of puberty was reached at 9 months. We concluded that the male agouti influences the onset of puberty in females, and that the dominant female, apparently, inhibits or delays the puberty of the other agouti females of the group. We suggest further studies be made concerning the social control of the reproduction of these animal. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi analisar a puberdade em fêmeas de cutias. Não foi observado o inicio da puberdade quando as fêmeas foram mantidas sem os machos. Se um macho adulto era mantido com as fêmeas adultas e não ciclantes, o inicio do ciclo estral era observado após um período de 10 a 60 dias. Quando as fêmeas jovens eram mantidas com o macho, a puberdade se estabelecia aos nove meses. Concluindo que o macho de cutia influencia o inicio da puberdade das fêmeas, e as fêmeas dominantes, aparentemente, inibem ou atrasam a puberdade de outras do grupo. Sugerem-se estudos futuros sobre o controle social na reprodução deste animal. GUIMARÃES, D. A. A.; RAMOS, R. S. L.; OHASHI, O. M.
