Segment number threshold determines juvenile onset of germline cluster proliferation in <i>Platynereis dumerilii</i>
2021-04-22
Abstract excerpt
Many animals rely on sexual reproduction to propagate by using gametes (oocytes and sperm). Development of sexual characters and generation of gametes are tightly coupled with the growth of an organism. Platynereis dumerilii is a marine segmented worm which has been used to study germline development and gametogenesis. Platynereis has 4 Primordial Germ Cells (PGCs) that arise early in development and these cells...
