Several parameters connected with the biology of H. rosa were investigated under laboratory conditions: average life span (20 days) divided into three characteristic stages, mean number of eggs laid (30 eggs) and average time of egg development (31.5 hours). Ontogenesis was studied (until the stage of early organogenesis) and a spiral type of cleavage and epibolic gastrulation were observed. The paper also presents data on the origin of the digestive system and sex cells. 相似文献

Cell-deletion experiments were carried out on the embryo of the polyclad turbellarian Hoploplana inquilina to examine further the nature of development in primitive spiralians. The polyclads are of particular interest because they provide a link between the regulative development of acoels and the determinative development of annelids and molluscs. Single blastomeres were deleted at the two- and four-cell stages by puncture through the eggshell membrane with tungsten needles. All deletions resulted in abnormal larvae with consistent characteristics representing half or three-quarter Müller's larvae. The number of larval eyes was a particularly useful character in revealing mosaicism. This study establishes the polyclad embryo as determinative, but with important cell interactions also occurring during early development, and provides evidence that mosaicism became associated with spiral cleavage in the quartet form during the evolution of the Turbellaria. 相似文献

Early development of fertilized eggs is reviewed for the main groups within the phylum Platyhelminthes (Turbellaria, Temnocephaloidea, Monogenea, Digenea, Cestodaria and Cestoda). The Turbellaria show two different patterns of embryological development consequent on whether yolk material is contained within the ovum membrane (endolecithal) or whether yolk is added to the outside of the ovum (ectolecithal). In the parasitic groups, those that are oviparous or ovoviviparous produce shelled eggs of the ectolecithal type and, in addition, there are viviparous forms in which egg development shows variations and the amount of yolk, where present, is reduced. In every case examined, however, cleavage is of the spiral type. Within the Cestoda, clear distinction is made between those groups (orders) of worms which are oviparous as compared to those which are viviparous. It is suggested that oviparity is more primitive (ancestral) than viviparity based on adult morphology and on the evidence of life-cycle studies.The continued, post-oncospheral development of cestodes is described as is the ultrastructure of various representative cercoid larval forms. These include: the procercoid of Pseudophyllidea and Haplobothrioidea; the cercoid of Tetraphyllidea; and, within the Cyclophyllidea, the cercoscolex of the Dilepididae, the cysticercoid of the Hymenolepidae, and the cysticercus of the Taeniidae. During post-oncospheral development, in every case examined the posterior part of the developing larva, the cercomer, can be characterized by a microvillar tegument (at least during early development) whereas the more anterior larval body itself, destined to develop in the definitive host, develops microtriches. Modifications to the cercomer, and its microvilli, in the later stages of post-oncospheral development, occur particularly in the more advanced Cyclophyllidea such as the Taeniidae and in some Hymenolepididae. 相似文献

The early development up to the end of gastrulation of the marineprosobranch Nassarius (Hinia) reticula-tus (Linnaeus) has beenexamined by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. Thesynchrony of the cleavage divisions ends with the formationof the second quartet. The somatoblast 2d and the mesen-toblast4d appear earlier than the other micromeres of their quartets.From the 16- to the 32-cell stage the turret cells have an outgrowth.At the end of cleavage, Nassarius shows a typical sterroblastula.During gastrulation, the epibolic encirclement of the yolk macromeresby the micromeres is produced by an active flattening of themicromere cap and at the end of gastrulation the blastoporeis completely closed. The nuclei of the four yolk macromeresmigrate from the animal cell regions towards the vegetativepole. The development of Nassarius reticulatus is very similarto that of the related species llyanassa obsoleta (Say). (Received 19 December 1990; accepted 18 August 1991) 相似文献

Summary Changes in egg shape and surface morphology during maturation may be related to the localization of cytoplasmic determinants in the embryos of organisms with spiral cleavage. The eggs of the polyclad turbellarian Hoploplana inquilino undergo pronounced shape changes during the meiotic divisions which have been examined with the scanning electron microscope. Unfertilized eggs have a smooth surface that becomes covered with microvilli and microblebs within 10 min of fertilization. First polar body extrusion is accompanied by the asymmetric appearance of large blebs (Blebbing Cycle I) primarily in the animal hemisphere with one quadrant characteristically smoother than the others and bearing fewer blebs. Blebbing Cycle II, which is less pronounced than the first but is still characterized by a relatively un blebbed quadrant of the zygote, coincides with second polar body formation. These asymmetric shape changes in the animal hemisphere during meiosis may possibly correlate with a primitive form of morphogenetic segregation and beginning quadrant specialization in polyclads, the most primitive spiralians with mosaic development. 相似文献

The embryonic and early larval development of laboratory reared Zagros tooth‐carp, Aphanius vladykovi Coad, 1988, are described and illustrated. Development and embryogenesis start with the external fertilization of sticky, transparent and spherical telolecithal/macrolecithal eggs with a mean diameter of 1.61± 0.12 mm and it continues with meroblastic/radial cleavage, blastulation/blastula formation, epibolic cell migration during gastrulation and organogenesis resulting in a newly hatched larvae of 5.23 ± 0.09 mm in length with attached yolk sac at about 164 hr (at 24 ± 1°C) after fertilization. 相似文献

In spiralian embryos determination of the axes of bilateral symmetry is associated with D quadrant specification. This can occur late through equal cleavage and cell interactions (conditional specification) or by the four-cell stage through unequal cleavage and cytoplasmic localization (autonomous specification). Freeman & Lundelius (1992) suggest that in spiralian coelomates the former method is ancestral and the latter derived, with evolutionary pressure to shorten metamorphosis resulting in early D quadrant determination through unequal cleavage and appearance of adult features in the larvae. Because of the key phylogenetic position of the turbellarian platyhelminthes, understanding the method of axis specification in this group is important in evaluating the hypothesis. Polyclad development, with equal quartet spiral cleavage, is believed to represent the most primitive condition among living turbellarians and has been examined experimentally in Hoploplana inquilina. Blastomere deletions at the two and four-cell stage produce larvae that are abnormal in morphology and symmetry, indicating that early development is not regulative, and also establish that the embryo does not have an invariant cell lineage. Deletions of micromeres and macromeres at the eight-cell stage indicate that cell interactions are involved in dorso-ventral axis determination, with cross-furrow macromeres playing a more significant role than non-cross-furrow cells. The results support the idea that conditional specification is the primitive developmental mode that characterized the common ancestor of the turbellarians and spiralian coelomates. Evolutionary trends in development in polyclads and other turbellarian orders are discussed. 相似文献

An ultrastructural study of oogenesis has been undertaken in some marine species of neoophoran turbellarians belonging to the Tricladida, Proseriata, and Prolecithophora. Among marine triclads, Cercyra hastata has oocytes with a remarkable amount of what appears to be autosynthetic proteinaceous yolk, while Procerodes dohrni and P. lobata have alecithal oocytes. Among the Proseriata, several species of the primitive family Monocelididae (subfamily Monocelidinae) have oocytes with a discrete amount of what appears to be autosynthetic yolk, while Parotoplana macrostyla, of the derived family Otoplanidae, has alecithal eggs. Finally preliminary observations on Plagiostomum maculatum (order Prolecithophora) suggest that oocytes have autosynthetic yolk globules.These results support the hypothesis (previously formulated on the basis of similar ultrastructural investigations on freshwater triclads) that the presence of autosynthetic yolk in some neoophoran turbellarians can be interpreted as a primitive character inherited from an ancestor with archoophoran organization. This plesiomorphic character would still be maintained in some species while lost in others following differentiation of vitellaria which are characteristic of the Neoophora. 相似文献

Following fertilization of eggs of Brachydanio rerio a blastodisc is formed which, by cleavage divisions and epibolic movements, gives rise to a cell cap covering the yolk. When about half of the yolk is covered by the cells, a thickening appears at the progressing margin, the embryonic shield, which gives rise to the axial organs of the future embryo. Thereby, the dorsal/ventral axis can be recognized. Our experiments show that the blastodisc is formed at the position of the micropyle, the only site where the sperm can enter the egg and oocyte. Later the head appears at this position. We show that the position of the embryonic shield on the circumference of the cell cap is influenced by gravitation. We also demonstrate that there is no correlation between the orientation of the first or second cleavage plane and the position of the embryonic shield.

Summary Embryos of the paedogenetically reproducing gall midge Heteropeza pygmaea develop floating in the haemocoel of a so-called mother larva. The egg membranes remain permeable and the embryos increase in size during embryonic development by taking up nutrients from the haemolymph. Such embryos can be cultured in vitro, i.e. in haemolymph drops obtained from mother larvae. We tested the effects of several drugs known to interact with cytoskeletal elements on different stages of embryonic development, including cleavage and gastrulation. The drugs were added to the in vitro cultures and the effects were studied with time-lapse cine-micrography. Colchicine and vinblastine blocked cleaving eggs in metaphase stage and arrested yolk globule oscillation. In spite of such a block blastoderms once formed continued development through germ band formation and extension and also increased in size. Cytochalasin B did not affect the stage of cleavage; however, it inhibited gastrulation and subsequent morphogenetic processes and also prevented size increase. We conclude that (1) the functioning of microtubules is needed for yolk globule oscillation during cleavage interphases but not for the gastrulation processes subsequent to blastoderm formation and (2) microfilaments do not play an important role in cleavage, at least not for the orderly succession of the cleavage divisions, but are essential for the morphogenetic movements associated with gastrulation. We suggest that during cleavage a limited stock of microtubules and their precursors is responsible for both transport of chromosomes during mitoses and translocation of organelles during interphase. Yolk oscillation seems to be a secondary effect and of minor or no importance for the normal course of embryonic development.Dedicated to Professor Gerhard Krause on the occasion of his 80th birthday 相似文献

Summary The structure of the female gonad has undergone important evolutionary modifications in Platyhelminthes-Turbellaria. The primitive condition consists of single oocytes freely distributed in the parenchyma autosynthetically producing both yolk and eggshell forming granules (e.f.g.) (archoophoran level of organization). A derived condition is the presence of a compact, hetero-cellular gonad enveloped by a cellular tunica and/or an extracellular lamina-like layer and composed of germaria with alecithal oocytes and vitellaria with vitelline or yolk cells producing and accumulating both yolk and e.f.g. (neoophoran level of organization). In the last three decades the female gonad of a number of turbellarian taxa has been investigated by means of electron microscopy and cytochemistry, and several characters of oocytes and vitellocytes have been hypothesized to have a potential phylogenetic value. Some of these characters and their possible phylogenetic implications are briefly reviewed. 相似文献

Schistosomiasis is a water-borne parasitic illness caused by neoophoran trematodes of the genus Schistosoma. Using classical histological techniques and whole-mount preparations, the present work describes the embryonic development
of Schistosoma mansoni eggs in the murine host and compares it with eggs maintained under in vitro conditions. Two pre-embryonic stages occur inside
the female worm: the prezygotic stage is characterized by the release of mature oocytes from the female ovary until its fertilization.
The zygotic stage encompasses the migration of the zygote through the ootype, where the eggshell is formed, to the uterus.
Fully formed eggs are laid still undeveloped, without having suffered any cleavage. In the outside environment, eight embryonic
stages can be defined: stage 1 refers to early cleavages and the beginning of yolk fusion. Stage 2 represents late cleavage,
with the formation of a stereoblastula and the onset of outer envelope differentiation. Stage 3 is defined by the elongation
of the embryonic primordium and the onset of inner envelope formation. At stage 4, the first organ primordia arise. During
stages 5 to 7, tissue and organ differentiation occurs (neural mass, epidermis, terebratorium, musculature, and miracidial
glands). Stage 7 is characterized by the nuclear condensation of neurons of the central neural mass. Stage 8 refers to the
fully formed larva, presenting muscular contraction, cilia, and flame-cell beating. This staging system was compared to a
previous classification and could underlie further studies on egg histoproteomics (morphological localizome). The differentiation
of embryonic structures and their probable roles in granulomatogenesis are discussed herein.

During mouse gastrulation, the primitive streak is formed on the posterior side of the embryo. Cells migrate out of the primitive streak to form the future mesoderm and endoderm. Fate mapping studies revealed a group of cell migrate through the proximal end of the primitive streak and give rise to the extraembryonic mesoderm tissues such as the yolk sac blood islands and allantois. However, it is not clear whether the formation of a morphological primitive streak is required for the development of these extraembryonic mesodermal tissues. Loss of the Cripto gene in mice dramatically reduces, but does not completely abolish, Nodal activity leading to the absence of a morphological primitive streak. However, embryonic erythrocytes are still formed and assembled into the blood islands. In addition, Cripto mutant embryos form allantoic buds. However, Drap1 mutant embryos have excessive Nodal activity in the epiblast cells before gastrulation and form an expanded primitive streak, but no yolk sac blood islands or allantoic bud formation. Lefty2 embryos also have elevated levels of Nodal activity in the primitive streak during gastrulation, and undergo normal blood island and allantois formation. We therefore speculate that low level of Nodal activity disrupts the formation of morphological primitive streak on the posterior side, but still allows the formation of primitive streak cells on the proximal side, which give rise to the extraembryonic mesodermal tissues formation. Excessive Nodal activity in the epiblast at pre‐gastrulation stage, but not in the primitive streak cells during gastrulation, disrupts extraembryonic mesoderm development. 相似文献

Summary Blastomere deletion experiments at the two- and four-cell stages were carried out on the embryo of the polyclad turbellarian Hoploplana inquilina to further examine the relationship between spiral cleavage and early embryonic determination in primitive spiralians. Deletion of one cell at the two-cell stage resulted in “half” larvae that were abnormal in body shape, lobe development, and behavior. Deletion of one cell at the four-cell stage produced less abnormal “three-quarter” larvae which were still underdeveloped in one of the quadrants. A 3:1 ratio of one-eyed to two-eyed larvae implies that deletion of any one of three blastomeres results in loss of an eye, with two constituting the eye lineage and the third controlling the development of two eyes. The results demonstrate that the polyclad embryo is determined early in development, though significant cell interactions occur during cleavage, and suggest that determinative development and quartet spiral cleavage are always associated and probably represent a primitive, strongly conserved evolutionary condition. 相似文献

Development of erythroid and myeloid progenitors in the yolk sac and embryo proper of the mouse. 总被引:54,自引:0,他引:54

In this study, we have mapped the onset of hematopoietic development in the mouse embryo using colony-forming progenitor assays and PCR-based gene expression analysis. With this approach, we demonstrate that commitment of embryonic cells to hematopoietic fates begins in proximal regions of the egg cylinder at the mid-primitive streak stage (E7.0) with the simultaneous appearance of primitive erythroid and macrophage progenitors. Development of these progenitors was associated with the expression of SCL/tal-1 and GATA-1, genes known to be involved in the development and maturation of the hematopoietic system. Kinetic analysis revealed the transient nature of the primitive erythroid lineage, as progenitors increased in number in the developing yolk sac until early somite-pair stages of development (E8.25) and then declined sharply to undetectable levels by 20 somite pairs (E9.0). Primitive erythroid progenitors were not detected in any other tissue at any stage of embryonic development. The early wave of primitive erythropoiesis was followed by the appearance of definitive erythroid progenitors (BFU-E) that were first detectable at 1-7 somite pairs (E8.25) exclusively within the yolk sac. The appearance of BFU-E was followed by the development of later stage definitive erythroid (CFU-E), mast cell and bipotential granulocyte/macrophage progenitors in the yolk sac. C-myb, a gene essential for definitive hematopoiesis, was expressed at low levels in the yolk sac just prior to and during the early development of these definitive erythroid progenitors. All hematopoietic activity was localized to the yolk sac until circulation was established (E8.5) at which time progenitors from all lineages were detected in the bloodstream and subsequently in the fetal liver following its development. This pattern of development suggests that definitive hematopoietic progenitors arise in the yolk sac, migrate through the bloodstream and seed the fetal liver to rapidly initiate the first phase of intraembryonic hematopoiesis. Together, these findings demonstrate that commitment to hematopoietic fates begins in early gastrulation, that the yolk sac is the only site of primitive erythropoiesis and that the yolk sac serves as the first source of definitive hematopoietic progenitors during embryonic development. 相似文献

The nucleocytoplasmic hybrid combination performed by nuclear graft between B. bufo nucleus and B. calamita egg is 95% lethal during gastrulation mostly at the young gastrula stage (75%) and to a lesser extent at the yolk plug stage (20%). The heterologous B. calamita cytoplasm was treated or fractioned by different techniques including centrifugation, nucleic acid extraction, ammonium sulfate treatment and heating.
The treated cytoplasmic fractions were injected in B. bufo fertilized eggs in order to check their influence on morphogenetic capacities of the B. bufo nucleus. Injection of hyaline cytoplasmic fraction obtained from B. calamita centrifuged eggs blocks the B. Bufo fertilized egg gastrulation in similar rates as in nucleocytoplasmic association performed by interspecific nuclear grafting. Gastrulation, however, is not affected by injection of total nucleic acids extracted from this hyaline fraction. The soluble cytoplasmic fraction obtained after 60% ammonium sulfate precipitation blocks the development at the beginning of gastrulation, this property being inactivated by heating for 5 min at 60°C. Supernatant from 70% ammonium sulfate precipitation blocks the development at the yolk plug stage and is inactivated by heating for 5 min at 80°C.
These experiments suggest that two distinct factors in B. calamita eggs are involved in developmental arrest of injected B. bufo fertilized eggs, these two factors respectively acting on the beginning and on the end of gastrulation. 相似文献

Summary The eggs of the gall midgeHeteropeza pygmaea develop parthenogenetically inside of the mother larva. They lack a chorion and remain enveloped by the follicular epithelium. After experimental elimination of the follicular epithelium naked eggs are formed, which reach the blastoderm stage but remain spherical instead of assuming an elongated shape. To analyze this peculiar egg development and the roles of egg shape and envelope during development, the ultrastructure of cleaving normal and naked eggs was investigated. It was shown that the number of elements of Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum strongly increases during early cleavage. Their association with cleavage furrows and nuclei suggests that these organelles play a dominant role in membrane production. Egg yolk consists of lipids and glycogen, wheareas no proteins are found. Cleaving eggs contain numerous vesicles with lysosomal characteristics, indicating intense autophagic processes. Cleavage furrow formation occurs independently from the positioning of cleavage nuclei. The numerous microtubules, which are associated with cleavage furrows and nuclei and located in the egg periphery, the intercellular bridges, and in the central part of the egg, suggest that the cytoskeleton has an important role in cleavage furrow formation, blastoderm layer establishment, and yolk localization. Since these processes are accurately accomplished in naked spherical eggs, they can be considered as independent of normal egg shape and the follicular epithelium. 相似文献

The developmental capacities of an avian germ (from before symmetrization to the moment of laying) are strongly diminished after inversion of its egg yolk ball followed by culture in egg white. Our present experiments show that even when the avian germ is completely horizontally inverted (without an upper or lower border) below its egg yolk ball before symmetrization, symmetrization and gastrulation phenomena take place. The germ grows slower and becomes smaller than after normal incubation. After culture of inverted unincubated germs, localized on freshly laid eggs, the closure of the neural tube is impaired and it remains open over a long distance. Although a primitive streak (PS) develops, mesoderm migration (mainly from the lateral part of the area pellucida) is also impaired. On sections through the germinal disc one can see the abnormal upward migration into the depth of the ooplasm and yolk of cells from the germ wall and the development of large cellular extensions encircling the yolk globules. Most prominent is the loss of contact between the superficial cell layers and the deep layer elements (junctional endoblast and yolk endoblast in the area opaca). Large areas without deep layer elements (even visible on surface micrographs) develop in the area vasculosa and area vitellina interna. The margin of overgrowth grows and extends normally over the egg yolk ball. An autoradiographic study after labelling of the yolk layers in inverted egg yolks reveals that mainly compression of the peripheral subgerminal and perigerminal ooplasm takes place. This suggests that the compression by the neighbouring yolk and upwards growth of cells are at the origin of the impaired development. After return to the normal upward orientation of the germ on the topmost part of the egg yolk ball, a more or less pronounced restoration to normal development takes place (depending on the duration of the inversion period and the age of the germ). 相似文献

The teleost dorsoventral axis cannot be distinguished morphologically before gastrulation. In order to examine whether the
yolk cell affects axis determination, we bisect early cleavage embryos of the goldfish, Carassius auratus. When the vegetal yolk hemisphere is removed by bisection along the equatorial plane at the 2-cell stage, the embryos develop
abnormally and exhibit a symmetrical morphology. No dorsal structures, such as notochord, somites and neural tube, differentiate
and no embryonic shield is formed during gastrulation. In addition, no goosecoid mRNA is expressed before gastrulation. The frequency of abnormality decreases as the age at which the vegetal yolk hemisphere
is removed increases. Most embryos removed at the 32-cell stage develop normally. Their morphological phenotype is similar
to that of a Xenopus ventralized embryo generated by ultraviolet irradiation on the vegetal hemisphere soon after fertilization. We also observed
that, when the embryos were bisected along the first cleavage plane at the 2-cell stage, the proportion of pairs of embryos
of which one embryo developed normally was 44.8%. These results indicate that the vegetal yolk hemisphere of the early cleavage
embryo of the goldfish contains axis determination factor(s), which are necessary for generation of dorsal structures. Furthermore,
it is suggested that these determinant(s) are distributed asymmetrically within the vegetal yolk hemisphere.
