Ultrastructural description of spermiogenesis within the Mediterranean Gecko, Hemidactylus turcicus (Squamata: Gekkonidae).
We studied spermiogenesis in the Mediterranean Gecko, Hemidactylus turcicus, at the electron microscope level and compared to what is known within other Lepidosaurs. In H. turcicus germ cells are connected via cytoplasmic bridges where organelle and cytoplasm sharing is observed. The acrosome develops from merging transport vesicles that arise from the Golgi and subsequently partition into an a...
متن کاملGradient of reduced glutathione in the tail of Hemidactylus leschenaultii (Sauria: Gekkonidae).
A proximo-distal gradient of reduced glutathione (GSH), a non enzymatic antioxidant was observed in the original tails of the lizard, H. leschenaultii. In the regenerating tails, a gradual increase in the level of GSH was noted with tail elongation. In the newly regenerated tails also the level of GSH remained higher in the proximal part than the corresponding distal parts.
متن کاملTemporal Germ Cell Development Strategy during Mixed Spermatogenesis within the Male Mediterranean Gecko, Hemidactylus turcicus (Reptilia: Gekkonidae)
The testes of Hemidactylus turcicus are composed of seminiferous tubules lined with continuous germinal epithelia in which multiple germ cell morphologies can be found during the active months of sperm development. Spermatogenesis is quiescent during September, with only spermatogonia A and spermatogonia B present in the seminiferous epithelia and minimal mitotic activity is observed. Recrudesc...
متن کاملAgonistic Behavior of the Mediterranean Gecko Hemidactylus turcicus
Venetia S. Briggs (2012) Agonistic behavior of the Mediterranean gecko Hemidactylus turcicus. Zoological Studies 51(7): 956-965. Agonistic behavior may influence the dispersal of species and spatial distribution of individuals within a population. The Mediterranean gecko Hemidactylus turcicus was used to test 2 hypotheses: 1) adult behavior differs in responses to conspecifics and resource limi...
متن کاملProximal testicular ducts of the Mediterranean gecko (Hemidactylus turcicus).
The efferent ducts of the Mediterranean Gecko, Hemidactylus turcicus (Gekkonidae) were investigated using light and electron microscopy. The seminiferous tubules unite into a single rete testis tubule. The rete testis divides into 3-4 ductuli efferentes which all drain into the cranial portion of the ductus epididymis. All efferent ducts are most active during the months of December to August. ...
