Zakariah, Musa; Ibrahim, Mohammed Auwal; Molele, Reneilwe A.; McGaw, Lyndy Joy (Elsevier, 2020-12)It has been established that excess germ cells in normal and in pathological conditions are removed from testicular tissue by the mechanism of apoptosis. Studies on germ cell apoptosis in avian species are grossly lacking, ...
