Abstract excerpt
The abnormal oocyte phenotype is characterized by instability, as shown by the loss and reappearance of the abo maternal effect under specific genetic conditions. Our previous finding that a correlation exists between the abo phenotype and the presence of a blood transposon in region 32E, led us to perform an extensive genetic and molecular analysis of the most significant aspects of the abo phenotype in...
