The "tubule recruitment model" for the development of the holothurian gonad was proposed (a) to connect the stages of oogenesis with ovarian morphology in holothurians throughout the reproductive season and (b) to emphasize the potential for the holothurian ovary as a model system for cytological and biochemical study of echinoderm oogenesis. To reassess the evidence for this model, we have examined published accounts and unpublished observations on gonad development in holothurians from both temperate and tropical habitats, in shallow water and in the deep sea.
