The ~ interval for folli=~1ogenesis to occur ~ macaques is two

interval for new follicle growth is approximately two weeks ~ duration,

this too week interval - primordial, primary, secxrl~lry, or tlot:LLry
(astral) follicles. Since an increase in mediumrsized antral follicles
(0.5-l.Om~) occurs at the transition from one cycle to another, it is
presumed that the ovulatory follicle develops from one of these
mP~iumrsized antral follicles. The two week folli~lar phase has been

this follicle, thus dinting available FSH for follicles requiring
greater support than the dominant follicle. Irrespective of the
r~ch~urism, it is evident that the dominant follicle precludes the
development of other follicles daring the second week of the follic~1ar
phase. Thus, by this second week, an asymmetrical ovarian function occurs
