Not all germ cells are created equal: Aspects of sexual dimorphism in mammalian meiosis

1 Dec 2005

Abstract excerpt

The study of mammalian meiosis is complicated by the timing of meiotic events in females and by the intermingling of meiotic sub-stages with somatic cells in the gonad of both sexes. In addition, studies of mouse mutants for different meiotic regulators have revealed significant differences in the stringency of meiotic events in males versus females. This sexual dimorphism implies that the processes of...
