female reproductive gland secretory cell [FBbt_00048426]
Large, polyploid secretory cell that resides within a female reproductive gland, i.e. the spermathecum and female accessory gland (parovarium). These specialized glands produce mucus-rich secretions that capacitate sperm to fertilize successfully, inhibit infection, and provide nutritional, maintenance, and storage factors.
