Abstract
Primordial germ cells arise during gastrulation and migrate from the h indgut into the gonad primordium during early organogenesis. In this a rticle, we discuss factors that control migration, proliferation and t argeting of the PGCs. In particular we discuss how changes in adhesive ness control germ cell positioning in the gonad, and the molecules inv olved.
