In vivo canine oocyte maturation, fertilization and early embryogenesis: A review

This review reports existing and original data concerning the biology of the canine oocyte and early embryo. It describes specific aspects of intra- and extra-follicular maturation of the oocyte during the peri-ovulatory period, methods to detect ovulation, sperm survival and fertilization and timin...

Description
Summary:This review reports existing and original data concerning the biology of the canine oocyte and early embryo. It describes specific aspects of intra- and extra-follicular maturation of the oocyte during the peri-ovulatory period, methods to detect ovulation, sperm survival and fertilization and timing of preimplantation embryo development.
