Abstract

Bandicoot rats in laboratory conditions show irregularity in their estrous cycle. A majority of the animals, however, manifest regularity in their cycle following all-female grouping and the presence of a male. The probable participation of a pheromone(s) in the reproduction of this wild rat is suggested.
