Abstract

The present study was conducted on testes of grower (20-30 days) and adult (50-60 days) Wistar rats having 10 animals in each group. The thickness of tunica albuginea, average diameter of seminiferous tubule
and number of Sertoli cells per seminiferous tubule were significantly higher in adults than growers, whereas number of interstitial cells per field were significantly higher in growers than adults of Wistar rat. The reproductive performance of the animals can be better understood by testicular histomorphometry
