{ "item_title" : "Reproductive Biology of Invertebrates, Accessory Sex Glands", "item_author" : [" K. G. Adiyodi", "Rita G. Adiyodi "], "item_description" : "Accessory Sex Glands is the third volume in the Encyclopaedic Series and provides very valuable information, some hitherto unpublished, on the distribution, structure, origin, physiology, biochemistry, pharmacology and evolution of the accessory sex glands in different groups of invertebrates. Volumes I and II of this series have given detailed accounts of the structure, origin, composition and physiology of female and male gametes and also provided some information on the mechanisms controlling their production. The secretions of accessory sex glands are indispensable for several key aspects of gamete physiology and for successful fertilization and development in many internally fertilizing invertebrates. Interestingly enough accessory sex gland secretions are produced, in some species at least, under the influence of gonadotrophic hormones as are the gametes themselves.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers3.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/0/47/191/466/0471914665_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "998.50", "online_price" : "998.50", "our_price" : "998.50", "club_price" : "998.50", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
