Classification of gonocytes in neonatal MT-lacZ rat testis cell populations

	Blue cells*				Total cells counted
	Pseudopod	Round	Other	Total†
No. of cells‡	257	243	71	571	40,428

^*Single cell suspensions were prepared from the testes of neonatal MT-lacZ transgenic rats (0–4 dpp) and stained with the β-galactosidase substrate, X-Gal. Blue cells (gonocytes) were morphologically classified as pseudopod, round, or other. 

^† Sum of pseudopod, round, and other gonocytes. 

^‡ Results are combined from six replicate experiments, encompassing 0–4 dpp. 

^§ Percent of total cells counted (40,428).
