The Influence of Nuclear Content on Developmental Competence of Gaur × Cattle Hybrid In Vitro Fertilized and Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer Embryos1

Abstract excerpt

In nondomestic and endangered species, the use of domestic animal oocytes as recipients for exotic donor nuclei causes the normal pattern of cytoplasmic inheritance to be disrupted, resulting in the production of nuclear-cytoplasmic hybrids. Evidence suggests that conflict between nuclear and cytoplasmic control elements leads to a disruption of normal cellular processes, including metabolic function and cell...
