Examination of Y Chromosome Linked Gene Expression in Healthy and Arrested Pre-implantation Bovine Embryos

Sexual dimorphisms in growth rate and metabolism have been observed in the early embryo suggesting a role for sex chromosome linked gene expression in the early embryo. It is hypothesized that Y chromosome gene expression is aiding male embryo development in vitro. Reverse transcription polymerase c...
