Figure 6


Fig. 6. Rates of follicle growth in wild-type, connexin-replacement and Cx37-knockout ovaries. Mean follicle diameter was determined for samples of 195 follicles of four wild-type mice, 124 follicles of five connexin-replacement mice and 84 follicles of three Cx37-knockout mice. The chi-square test was used to compare the frequency distributions of follicle types between genotypes, whereas two-way ANOVA with Bonferroni test was used to test for interaction between genotype and follicle size. Although connexin-replacement follicles achieved the same mean diameter as wild-type follicles in the early antral stage, mean follicle diameter in Cx37-knockout follicles was significantly less. Bars represent means ± s.e.m.
