TI  - Sexually dimorphic neurogenesis is topographically matched with the anterior 
      accessory olfactory bulb of the adult rat.
PG  - 385-9
AB  - The accessory olfactory bulb (AOB) is a sexually dimorphic structure of the 
      vomeronasal system, which plays a role in the control of sexual behaviors. In 
      adult rats, we have demonstrated previously that the migrating neuroblasts of the 
      subependymal layer (SEL) directed to the main olfactory bulb (MOB) also reach the 
      AOB. To tackle the relation between sexual dimorphism and targeted cell 
      migration, we quantified the neo-neurogenesis in the AOB of adult rats of both 
      sexes. Our results confirm a morphological sexual dimorphism in the AOB granular 
      layer volumes. We showed that the number of newly generated cells reaching the 
      AOB in both sexes was considerable, even if lower than those directed to the MOB. 
      Moreover, we demonstrated that the rate of neurogenesis in the anterior AOB of 
      the two sexes was significantly different.
