N normal phenotype
reproductive system
• decreased number of ovarian follicles
• reduced size at 45 days of age but increased number of stromal cells
• normal number of seminiferous tubules but diameter of tubules is 30-50% of normal
• reduced testis size
• testicular hypoplasia but hyperplasia of interstitial cells
• few chiasmata found
• prophase I checkpoint is not triggered
• fail to form stable divalents in normal numbers
• chromosomes often fail to form a metaphase plate
• autosomal pairing is normal but defects in synapsis
• double strand breaks form normally but repair may be delayed or inefficient as inferred from persistent RAD51 foci
• blocked
• normal X-Y pairing but defects in synapsis
• block at diakinesis of meiosis I
• apoptosis is common in spermatocytes at that point

endocrine/exocrine glands
• decreased number of ovarian follicles
• reduced size at 45 days of age but increased number of stromal cells
• normal number of seminiferous tubules but diameter of tubules is 30-50% of normal
• reduced testis size
• testicular hypoplasia but hyperplasia of interstitial cells
