Generation of primordial germ cell-like cells by two germ plasm components, dnd1 and nanos3, in medaka (Oryzias latipes)

Summary: In teleost fish, primordial germ cells (PGCs), the precursors of eggs and sperm, develop from cells that inherit maternal germ plasm (GP). Although numerous GP component genes have been identified, the minimum set of genes essential for germline formation remains unknown. Herein, we provide...
