Mechanisms of oocyte activation in the presence and absence of PLCζ by Sahu, RK

“…PLCζ RNA and protein microinjection and knockout studies in a mouse model have confirmed its primary role in releasing calcium (Ca2+) in the oocyte at fertilisation. Studies revealed that a few delayed Ca2+ transients can still occur in the oocyte after fertilisation with PLCζ knockout sperm, resulting in a reduced embryo formation rate and increased polyspermy, but otherwise apparently normal development to term, indicating the presence of a secondary factor(s) which can stimulate Ca2+ release in the oocyte. …”

Mitochondrial Donation: The UK Experience by Mary Herbert

“…Nuclear genome transplantation can be performed either before or after fertilisation. The latter involves transfer of pronuclei, which separately contain the maternal and paternal genomes. …”

The Importance of the Position of the Nucleus in <i>Drosophila</i> Oocyte Development by Jean-Antoine Lepesant, Fanny Roland-Gosselin, Clémentine Guillemet, Fred Bernard, Antoine Guichet

“…Oogenesis is a developmental process leading to the formation of an oocyte, a haploid gamete, which upon fertilisation and sperm entry allows the male and the female pronuclei to fuse and give rise to a zygote. …”

GHG and NH₃ Emissions vs. Energy Efficiency of Maize Production Technology: Evidence from Polish Farms; a Further Study by Anita Konieczna, Kamil Roman, Kinga Borek, Emilia Grzegorzewska

“…The strongest impact on the environment, due to the GHG emissions to the atmosphere, thus contributing to the greenhouse effect, is due nitrogen fertilisation, both mineral and natural. On average, in the technologies under study, 61% of the total GHG emissions came from fertilisation. …”
