Molecular characterization and function analysis of the vitellogenin receptor from the cotton bollworm, Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) (Lepidoptera, Noctuidae) [PDF]
, 2016 Developing oocytes accumulate plentiful yolk protein during oogenesis through receptor-mediated endocytosis. The vitellogenin receptor (VgR), belonging to the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) family, regulates the absorption of yolk protein.

Research note : lyophilization of hyperimmune egg yolk : effect on antibody titer and protection of broilers against Campylobacter colonization [PDF]
, 2020 Oral administration of antibodies is a promising strategy against various infectious diseases. Previously, it was demonstrated that passive immunization by providing hyperimmune egg yolk through the feed reduces Campylobacter jejuni colonization in ...

Four-way regulation of mosquito yolk protein precursor genes by juvenile hormone-, ecdysone-, nutrient-, and insulin-like peptide signaling pathways. [PDF]
, 2014 Anautogenous mosquito females require a meal of vertebrate blood in order to initiate the production of yolk protein precursors by the fat body. Yolk protein precursor gene expression is tightly repressed in a state-of-arrest before blood meal-related ...

Influence of sperm-oocyte coincubation period on porcine in vitro fertilization (IVF) efficiency [PDF]
, 2010 A major obstacle for successful in vitro production of porcine embryos is the polyspermic fertilization. One possibility to reduce polyspermic penetration is decreasing the number of spermatozoa added to the fertilization medium. Unfortunately, the lower

The Effect of Age and Genotype on Quality of Eggs in Brown Egg‑Laying Hybrids
Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2019 The aim was to assess the internal and external quality of consumer eggs of egg‑laying hens of two selected genotypes depending on their age. All of these hens were kept in enriched cages. There were compared eggs from Hy‑Line Brown and ISA Brown hens at
