## Abstract Following fusion of sperm and egg, the contents of cortical granules (CG), a kind of special organelle in the egg, release into the perivitelline space (cortical reaction), causing the zona pellucida to become refractory to sperm binding and penetration (zona reaction). Accumulating evi

## Abstract Mature penaeid oocytes contain large cortical specializations (rods) in their cortex. These rods reside in membrane crypts and are isolated from the external environment by a thin investment coat which surrounds the oocyte. When oocytes contact seawater, at spawning, their cortical rods
