Comments |
The female Keimbahn also has preferential sites
for GC loss: Many oocytes in rat and mouse degenerate
preferentially in pachytene and diplotene
stage of the meiotic prophase. The same phenomenon was stated by Baker (’72) in the perinatal human:
“Between the 5th month p.c. and the time of
birth the population of oocytes declines by some 65%
to 2,000,000 in the human ovary.” |
