“…Its value can be further enhanced by its application in humans, livestock, and endangered species, where it could eventually contribute to the treatment of infertility, improvement of animal breeding, and conservation of vulnerable species [ 1 ]. Recent reports have demonstrated that primordial germ cells (PGCs), the precursor cell population of gametes, are induced from ES/iPS cells in mammalian species including humans, monkeys, rabbits, rats, and rhinoceroses [ 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ].
