## Abstract Lowering the external concentrations of both Mg^+2^ and Ca^+2^ caused failure of meiotic resumption invitroof bovine, oocyte‐cumulus complexes. Lowering of external Ca^+2^ levels singly had no effect on either meiotic resumption or completion of the first meiotic division. Lowering of e

## Abstract Follicle cell numbers, steroidogenesis, and culture conditions were manipulated in a series of experiments designed to identify their effect during in vitro maturation of pig oocytes upon meiotic cycle progression, sperm penetration and male pronuclear formation. In Experiment 1 a stati
## Abstract The response to parthenogenetic activation (calcium ionophore A23187) of bovine oocytes after 30 hr of culture in different maturation conditions was evaluated. The activation rates of oocytes in response to 10 μ A23187 were similar (86% ± 4 vs. 89% ± 8) when the oocytes matured with or
## Abstract The effects of dibutyryl cyclic AMP on the maturation of the mouse oocyte in vitro were studied. It was found that concentrations of 100 μg/ml or greater prevented germinal vesicle breakdown in more than 95% of the treated oocytes. The inhibition of maturation was found to be a reversib
## Abstract Bovine follicular oocytes cultured in vitro in Ham's F‐12 based medium for 27 hours were transferred to the oviducts of rabbits pretreated with 75 IU hCG 24 hours previously. Frozen‐thawed bull spermatozoa were inseminated into the uterus of rabbits 0, 2, 4, 6, 9, and 12 hours before oo
