Weekly variations in body weight and plasma testosterone concentrations in the captive male possum, Trichosurus vulpecula.

The possum is a seasonally breeding marsupial which gives birth in Queensland from March through to September. To ascertain whether this seasonality in breeding is manifest in the male reproductive system, body weight and plasma testosterone concentrations were examined in five possums. Plasma testosterone concentrations fluctuated throughout the year and a seasonal cycle was observed, with a peak in testosterone concentration in March and a nadir in September. Body weights fluctuated in a similar manner. Statistical analysis suggested that the annual plasma testosterone profile correlated well with the rate of change of daylength.[1]
