The eggshell is required for meiotic fidelity, polar-body extrusion and polarization of the <it>C. elegans </it>embryo
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Fertilization restores the diploid state and begins the process by which the single-cell oocyte is converted into a polarized, multicellular organism. In the nematode, <it>Caenorhabditis elegans</it>, two of the earliest...
