摘要:
Studying reproduction in domestic species is now possible at the cellular and molecular level due to advances in the production of large numbers of zygotes and embryos in these species. In this paper we review the microtubule patterns during fertilization in domestic species. These results indicate that domestic species accomplish fertilization in a similar fashion to one another but in a far different fashion from rodents. Recent results indicate that human fertilization is similar to that of domestic species. We discuss the significance this has on the use of domestic species as a model system for human studies and possible consequences for the alleviation of human infertility.
