소라, Batillus cornutus의 난소구조와 난모세포 발달단계를 광학현미경과 투과전자현미경 (TEM) 을 이용하여 관찰하였다. 전라남도 완도군 연안에서 다이버에 의해 채집된 소라는 자웅이체로서 난소는 소화맹낭부에서 꼬리돌기 끝까지 간췌장의 외측을 싸고 발달되어 있었으며, 성숙 시기에 난소는 녹색을 나타내었다. 난소의 내부 구조는 다수의 난소소엽으로 구성되어 있었으며, 난소소엽은 상피세포와 간충결합조직으로 구성되어 있었다. 난원세포는 큰 핵과 전자밀도가 높은 인을 포함하고 있었다. 난황형성 전기의 난모세포는 세포질에 전자밀도가 낮았고, 작은 구형의 난황 과립이 산재해 있었다. 난황형성 개시기의 난모세포는 난병에 의해 난소소엽과 연결되어 있었으며, 투과전자현미경 관찰 결과, 세포질에는 잘 발달된 골지체, 조면소포체, 미토콘드리아와 같은 세포소기관과 전자밀도와 크기가 다양한 난황과립이 다수 존재하였다. 이들 난황과립의 전자밀도와 크기는 전단계의 난모세포보다 증가하였다. 후기 난황형성활성기의 난모세포의 난막 두께는 약 4.4 μm였다. 성숙한 난모세포는 세포질에 전자밀도가 높은 단백질성의 난황과립과 전자밀도가 낮은 지질성의 난황과립으로 가득 차 있었으며 두께 약 6.5 μm인 난막에 의해 둘러싸여 있었다.
The ovarian structure and ultrastructural changes in germ cells during oogenesis of the spiny top shell, Batillus cornutus, have been investigated by light and electron microscopic observations. Specimens of the spiny top shell were collected from the subtidal zone of Wando, south coast of Korea. Spiny top shell was dioecious. The ovary was located on the surface of the hepatopancreas in the spiral posterior region. The ovary had greenish color in the gonadal mature season. The ovary comprised many ovarian lobules, and the ovarian lobule consisted of connective mesenchymal tissue and epithelial cells. Oogonium had a large nucleus with nucleolus of high electron density. In previtellogenic oocyte, small yolk granules of low electron density were scattered in the cytoplasm. Oocytes in the initial vitellogenic stage were connected with the ovarian lobule by egg stalk. The result of TEM observations showed that initial vitellogenic oocyte contained well-developed Golgi complex, endoplasmic reticula, tubular mitochondria and numerous yolk granules of various electron densities and sizes. The electron density, size and quantity of yolk granules which were distributed in the active vitellogenic oocyte were increased compared to the previous stage. Thickness of egg envelope in the late active vitellogenic oocyte was approximately 4.4 μm. Cytoplasm of ripe oocyte was filled with proteid yolk globules of high electron density and lipid yolk globules of low electron density. In this stage, the thickness of egg envelope was approximately 6.5 μm.
