Fig. 4. Cell tracing during gonad development. A. Undifferentiated gonads at NF52; signal is visible in cells located inside the gonads, which indicates the ingression of cells from the surface epithelium inwards the gonads. B. Testes at NF53; signal is visible in cells dispersed in the whole gonads. C. Testes at NF60; only low signal is present at the gonadal surface. D. Ovaries at NF53; signal is present in the cells located inside the gonads. E. Ovaries at NF56; signal is present inside the gonads. F. Control gonads at NF53; signal is present only at the gonadal surface. Scale bar 60 µm. Image published in: Piprek RP et al. (2017) Copyright © 2017.
