Size of the Ovulatory Follicle Dictates Spatial Differences in the Oviductal Transcriptome in Cattle.

In cattle, molecular control of oviduct receptivity to the embryo is poorly understood. Here, we used a bovine model for receptivity based on size of the pre-ovulatory follicle to compare oviductal global and candidate gene transcript abundance on day 4 of the estrous cycle. Growth of the pre-ovulat...
