中文摘要：

It is found for the first time that, after the structure and endocrine function of Hatschek’s pit of Bran-chiostoma belcheri are damaged by monosodium glu-tamate (MSG) treatment in breeding season, tbe ovulation of mature ovary, as well as the development of both ovary and testis of large-growth stage are obstructed and stagnated; and in non-breeding season, the process of gonadal development is delayed. The disturbed ovulation and gonadal development can definitely be restored with exogenous gonad-otropic hormone as the therapeutical substitute. These results may provide new proof for the complete understanding of the evolutional process of pituitary function in vertebrates and playing an important role in the reproductive endocrine control system of Hatschek’s pit of amphioxus.
