Early Depletion of Primordial Germ Cells in Zebrafish Promotes Testis Formation
Summary: As complete absence of germ cells leads to sterile males in zebrafish, we explored the relationship between primordial germ cell (PGC) number and sexual development. Our results revealed dimorphic proliferation of PGCs in the early zebrafish larvae, marking the beginning of sexual different...
