The epigenome of male germ cells and the programming of phenotypes in cattle

1 Dec 2021

Abstract excerpt

Bull semen is a commercial product widely used for artificial insemination. During the differentiation of male germ cells into spermatozoa, there are several windows of epigenome sensitivity to environmental factors. The epigenome of bull sperm exhibits both conserved features and interindividual variations, some of which are associated with fertility. The paternal epigenome contributes to embryo development and...
