Gonadal Sex Differentiation in Frogs: How Testes Become Shorter than Ovaries

1 Feb 2013

Abstract excerpt

Testis differentiation in anuran amphibians is the result of two opposing processes: degeneration of the distal part, and development of the proximal part, which becomes a functional male gonad. Undifferentiated gonad differentiates directly into a testis without a transition phase. We described the morphology of developing testes in Rana temporaria and Hyla arborea, and made careful histology and ultrastructure...
