  1. Ten testes from dolly-1 males were immunostained with the S5 antibody. Aberrant primary spermatocytes were found in every preparation. Regular: nuclei containing one kl-5 and one ks-1 loop. 3 loops: either kl-5 or ks-1 loop is split. 4 loops: both kl-5 and ks-1 loops are split. kl-5 and ks-1 loops are equally affected.
