Abstract:
Recently, cell signaling has been shown to be required for the formation of germ cells in the mouse embryo, direct observation of germ cell migration in living mouse embryos has been achieved, novel genes that control germ-cell migration have been identified in Drosophila, and the roles of many components of germ plasm in several species have become clearer.
