The gerbil (Meriones Crassus) is the most abundant small mammal in Kuwait and information on reproduction of these rodents is scanty. The gerbil, M. crassus, belongs to the subfamily Gerbillinae of the family Cricetidae, Order Rodentia. Extensive light and electron microscopic studies of the oviduct of mouse, rat, rabbit, guinea pig, ruminants, and man have been reported by Nilsson and Reinius. To the best of our knowledge, no electron microscopic studies of the desert gerbil tubal epithelium during the estrous cycle have been reported. It has been shown that the secretion of the tubal epithelium is controlled by hormones and that secretion is necessary for the survival of the egg. Our knowledge of the fine structural changes which take place during secretion is incomplete. This report describes for the first time the fine structural features of the secretory process of the gerbil oviduct.
