✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Androgenetic diploid axolotls were produced by a combination of ultraviolet inactivation of the egg pronucleus and pressure suppression of the first cleavage division. Although survival was low, this technique will prove to be useful for producing completely homozygous animals in one step.

## Abstract Androgenetic diploid axolotls were produced by ultraviolet inactivation of the egg pronucleus shortly after fertilization, followed by suppression of the first cleavage division by hydrostatic pressure or heat shock. After treatment at 14,000 psi for 8 minutes, diploidy was restored in
