The primitive groove is a feature present during prenatal development. It is a shallow groove that appears on the surface of the primitive streak.[1][2] It is created by infolding of epiblastic cells.[1][2] Its anterior end communicates with the yolk-sac by means of the blastopore (an aperture).[citation needed]
