The role of the vitamin C was explored in the uropygial gland of the juvenile pigeons from histological and karyodynamic standpoints. Furthermore, the total lipid of the gland was also measured. Vitamin C loading increased the gland weight without causing any perceptible change in the mitotic activity of the gland or in the glandular lipid level in either sex of the juvenile pigeons. Significance of these findings has been briefly discussed.
