| Pattern | ANI-2 localized strikingly and exclusively to the surface of the rachis. ANI-2 framed the windows between the pseudo-cells and the rachis in the distal and middle gonad, and also localized to the surface of the rachis between the windows. At the turn of the gonad, where developing oocytes increase in size, the `windows' to the rachis enlarge. In the proximal gonad, the ANI-2-stained rachis gradually decreases in diameter, and runs alongside some of the full-sized oocytes in the oviduct. All but approximately the four oocytes that are nearest to the spermatheca appear to be connected to the rachis. | Primary Identifier | Expr3281 |
