Figure 4

Relative expression of KHDC3/FILIA , NLRP5/MATER , OOEP1 , OOEP2 and TLE6 in ovine immature (GV) and IVM MII oocytes (MII), in IVMFC two- (2C), four- (4C), eight- (8C), and 16-cell (16C) embryos derived from adult (Ad) or prepubertal (Pr) donors. Relative abundance values are expressed as ΔCq and show the mean value × s.e.m. of five (GV and MII) and three (2C, 4C, 8C and 16C) replicates for each stage (each replicate = pool of 10 oocytes/embryos). A. Different letters indicate a significant difference in relative mRNA abundance (P <0.05) among the developmental stages. B. * indicates a significant difference in relative mRNA abundance (P <0.05) in pairwise comparisons of oocytes/embryos at the same developmental stage derived from adult or prepubertal donors (Ad vs Pr).
