STUDIES ON THE STRUCTURE AND PHYSIOLOGY OF THE FLIGHT MUSCLES OF BIRDS. 9. A QUANTITATIVE STUDY OF THE DISTRIBUTION PATTERN OF SUCCINIC DEHYDROGENASE IN THE PECTORALIS MAJOR MUSCLE OF THE PIGEON

The relative distribution pattern of the narrow red and broad white fibers, and the succinic dehydrogenase activity in the different layers of the pigeon breast muscle were studied quantitatively. It was found that the activity of this enzyme in any particular layer of the muscle is more or less related to the number of the narrow red fibers present there since the main bulk of the enzyme resides in these fibers.
