Molecular genetics of oogenesis in Drosophila melanogaster
Gonadal development requires complex differentiation programs leading to the production of functional female and male gametes. Upon fertilization, while the male germ cell contributes to the newly formed zygote only its genetic material, the female germ ...

Stage Specific Transcriptomic Analysis and Database for Zebrafish Oogenesis
Oogenesis produces functional eggs and is essential for fertility, embryonic development, and reproduction. The zebrafish ovary is an excellent model to study oogenesis in vertebrates, and recent studies have identified multiple regulators in oocyte ...

The strength and timing of the mitochondrial bottleneck in salmon suggests a conserved mechanism in vertebrates [PDF]
In most species mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) is inherited maternally in an apparently clonal fashion, although how this is achieved remains uncertain.

Microinjection Method for Analyzing Zebrafish Early Stage Oocytes
Maternal factors which accumulate and establish oocyte polarity during the early stages of oogenesis play key roles in embryonic development, as well as germ cell formation. However, vertebrate oogenesis, especially early stages of oogenesis, is not well

Prp22 and spliceosome components regulate chromatin dynamics in germ-line polyploid cells. [PDF]
During Drosophila oogenesis, the endopolyploid nuclei of germ-line nurse cells undergo a dramatic shift in morphology as oogenesis progresses; the easily-visible chromosomes are initially polytenic during the early stages of oogenesis before they ...

Fertility loss: negative effects of environmental toxicants on oogenesis
There has been a global decline in fertility rates, with ovulatory disorders emerging as the leading cause, contributing to a global lifetime infertility prevalence of 17.5%.

Isoflurane impairs oogenesis through germ cell apoptosis in C. elegans
Anesthetic isoflurane has been reported to induce toxicity. However, the effects of isoflurane on fecundity remain largely unknown. We established a system in C. elegans to investigate the effects of isoflurane on oogenesis.

New Mutations in the 5′ Region of the Notch Gene Affect Drosophila melanogaster Oogenesis
The Notch pathway is an important and evolutionarily conserved signaling system involved in the development of multicellular organisms. Notch signaling plays an important role in the regulation of proliferation and differentiation of many cell types.

Dynamics of maternal gene expression in Rhodnius prolixus
The study of developmental processes in Rhodnius prolixus has recently advanced with the sequencing of the genome. In this work, we analyze the maternal gene expression driving oogenesis and early embryogenesis in R. prolixus.
