Delhanty The cleavage stage embryo (days 1–3) stands out due to the high level of chromosomal anomalies, especially mosaicism that arises prior to global embryonic genome activation. Molecular cytogenetic studies show that an average of 60% of in vitro derived embryos have...

...M. Hornak; P. Hulinska; P. Musilova; S. Kubickova; J. Rubes Although numerical chromosome errors are known to be prevalent in early human embryos and are likely to be a considerable factor influencing the mortality of early embryos and implantation failure, in domestic animals data about...
