seminiferous

Zika-infected mice experience damage to the tubules that are lined with Sertoli cells, called seminiferous tubules.

In Larix the carpellary scale may become leafy, and the seminiferous scale may disappear.

Sternotherus, Terrapene, and Thamnophis are alike in completing spermatogenesis late in the season and storing spermatozoa, in the seminiferous tubules or in the epididymides, during hibernation.

The spermatozoa are formed in the walls of the convoluted seminiferous tubules.

It is important to draw attention to some structural features exhibited by certain cone-scales, in which there is no external sign indicative of the presence of a carpellary and a seminiferous scale.
