Time lapse movie of meiosis II in a living spermatocyte from the crane fly, Nephrotoma suturalis, viewed with polarized light microscopy

Abstract

The events of meiosis II in two living spermatocytes obtained from the testis of a crane-fly larva are recorded in this time-lapse sequence beginning at prophase II through telophase II to the near completion of cytokinesis following meiosis II.
