Intranuclear Lipids in the Early Oocytes of Heteropneustes Fossilis (Teleostei)

B. R. SESHACHAR 1 and R. P. NAYYAR 1

1 Department of Zoology, University of Delhi, Delhi, India

Purely lipid bodies have been encountered inside the nucleus of early oocytes of Heteropneustes fossilis. These are mixtures of phospholipids and triglycerides. They occur independently of the nucleoli. With the growth of oocyte they increase in size and number and move towards the nuclear membrane. During later stages they diffuse out into the cytoplasm presumably to take part in yolk formation.
