Seasonal composition of immature germ cells in the Yesso scallop identified by vasa-like gene (my-vlg) and protein expression, with evidence of irregular germ cell differentiation accompanied with a high mortality event

The objective of this study was to understand germ cell renewal and differentiation in the Yesso scallop Mizuhopecten yessoensis throughout its reproductive cycle. First, we identified a Yesso scallop vasa-like gene (my-vlg) as a useful marker for immature germ cells. Both in situ hybridization and...
