Abstract:Primordial germ cells (PGC) are the precursors of male and female progenitor cells. The cells are considered a valuable genetic material for the production of transgenic poultry. This technology includes isolation of the PGC from chick donor embryos, transformation of the cells, and injection into the dorsal aorta of recipient embryos. After injection, the PGC are involved in the process of embryo development and differentiate into male or female sex cells. The aim of the research was to optimize the individua… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
