ResumoAbstract In fetal testes of non‐inbred guinea pigs, virus‐like particles were seen in the primordial germ cells, but not in the somatic cells. Using the particles as a marker for the gonocytes it was possible to trace the phagocytosis of degenerating gonocytes by the Sertoli cells in the fetal testis.
