Germ cell activity shown by the presence of dividing spermatogonia and spermatocytes and of mature sperm, continues throughout the breeding season from Jan. to March. Mature germ cells are formed, at a reduced rate, 2 mos. before and 1 mo. after matings. The diploid number of chromosomes in the fox is 32. Somatic pairing of homologous chromosomes in the diploid spermatogonia is believed to occur. The paired chromosomes have been traced through the growth period. The sex-chromosome complex in the [male] consists of a small Y and a larger X which segregate during the first meiotic division. A chromatoid body, present in the cytoplasm during the growth period, is carried through both divisions and is ultimately discarded during spermiogenesis.
