Histogram of modeled DNA content for follicles 6-9 mm in diameter at different growing phases. The modelization of the growing, plateau and atretic phases, using FlowJo software, gave the proportion of total events in the sub-G1 phase (-G1), corresponding to cells with less than 2n DNA content, G1 phase, corresponding to cells containing 2n of DNA, S phase, corresponding to cells that are duplicating their DNA material, G2 phase, corresponding to cells having completely duplicated their genetic material to 4n. (n = 26 granulosa samples). On the graph, the selected regions correspond to 1) –G1, 2) G0/G1, 3) S.
