| Abstract: | Summary Gonadectomy of SWR of both sexes significantly reduced the number of cysticerci ofTaenia crassiceps, 60 days post infection. There was a significant decrease in the total number of larvae and the number of nonbudding individuals, corresponding with increased number of budding larvae. This indicates that the asexual multiplication of cysticerci in populations from gonadectomized mice was inhibited. |
