Summary edit

Description
English: Figure 2 of paper

Regions I−III of mature spermatozoon of Paramonorcheides selaris observed in TEM.

  • (A–C) Longitudinal and cross-sections of region I corresponding to the anterior spermatozoon extremity;
  • (D) longitudinal section in the ornamented area showing the spine-like body interrupting the external ornamentation of the plasma membrane;
  • (E) cross-section in the posterior part of the region I characterized by the appearance of the first mitochondrion;
  • (F and G) consecutive cross-sections in region II or transitional area showing only the axonemes, the first mitochondrion and a decrease of the cortical microtubules number;
  • (H) anterior part of region III exhibiting the second mitochondrion;
  • (I and J) cross-sections of middle part of region III showing the appearance of the nucleus. Note the disorganisation of the first axoneme (J).
Scale bars: 0.2 µm. Aae2, anterior extremity of second axoneme; Ase, anterior spermatozoon extremity; Ax1, first axoneme; Ax2, second axoneme; Cm, cortical microtubules; Eo, external ornamentation of the plasma membrane; M1, first mitochondrion; M2, second mitochondrion; N, nucleus; Pae1, posterior extremity of the first axoneme; Sb, spine-like body.
