摘要

Li et al. interrogate the transcriptomes of over 2,000 fetal germ cells (FGCs) and their gonadal niche cells from male and female human embryos using single-cell RNA-seq analysis. They provide insights into the developmental trajectories and heterogeneity in FGCs over a wide range of developmental stages.
