Abstract

The study supplies a detailed description of the development, morphology and function of anagen hair follicles in the Turkish Angora goat. In this connection, the formation of the hair root and the epithelial root sheaths is of specific interest. Furthermore, the intensive structural alterations and desintegrative processes occurring during the catagen phase are presented. The telogen hair follicle development is also referred to with special regard to typical structural and functional features.
