Determination of the sensitive stages for gonadal sex-reversal in Xenopus laevis tadpoles

1 Jan 1990

Abstract excerpt

The response of developing gonads of the clawed toad Xenopus laevis tadpoles to estradiol benzoate (EB) was studied between stages 44 and 67 using high resolution techniques. In presumptive genetic males the following results were obtained: 1) 100% sex reversal was induced when EB was administered before translocation of primordial germ cells (PGCs) from the gonadal epithelium into the medullary region (stages...
