1 Feb 1998
Abstract excerpt
Special cytoplasm, called germ plasm, that is essential for the differentiation of germ cells is localized in a particular region of Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila and Xenopus eggs. The mode of founder cell formation of germline, the origin and behavior of the germline granules, and the molecules localized in germline cells are compared in these organisms.
