Figure 1. P granules.

Figure 1

P granules (detected using the OIC1D4 antibody) in an adult hermaphrodite gonad. P granules are perinuclear in germ cells in the pachytene and diplotene stages of meiosis and become progressively more cytoplasmic in growing oocytes. The inset at top right shows cytoplasmic P granules (detected with an anti-GLH-2 antibody) in an embryo in the first mitotic prophase: these P granules are enriched on the posterior side. P granules are in green, and DNA is in blue. Scale bar = 1 µm. (Image: Jennifer T. Wang.)
