Rabbit Gonad Development Timeline

Day post coitum (dpc)

  • 9 - first germ cells are detected in both sexes.
  • 14 - gonad macroscopically evident, the mesonephros and gonads are still connected and interactions between tissues are probable.
  • 16 - most germ cells already entered the genital ridges (crests).
  • 16 to 25 - regression of the mesonephros.
  • 23 - gonadal and mesonephric tissues are separated by connective tissue. Thought to prevent the migration of cells and other substances.

Days post partum (dpp)

  • birth - XX gonads first signs of meiosis.
  • 50 - XY gonads first signs of meiosis.
  • 70 - blood-testis barrier is definitively complete.
