ResumoThe effects of postnatal (on day 1 after birth) male castration and female androgenization on accessory olfactory bulb (AOB) volume were studied. Control males showed greater values than females in AOB volume. Postnatal treatments abolished and inverted these differences. It is suggested that the AOB development is influenced by sex steroids during at least a postnatal period.
