Section overview
Description
Regulatory processes of gamete maturation and early embryonic development are very important for fertility and reproduction of farm animals. Therefore, the biological processes of follicular development, oocyte maturation, fertilisation, early embryonic and fetal development are the main topics of interest. The research is carried out in cattle, pigs and horses. Laboratory rodents are used as model animals. The biological processes are studied on different levels of the feature expression. The results of the research serve the safeguarding of a high reproductive health of the farm animals as well as the development and optimization of reproduction biotechnologies.
