The development of culture methods to produce oocytes from immature ovarian follicles in vitro would greatly contribute to livestock production and assisted human reproduction. However, successful in vitro culture to produce fully mature oocytes is very difficult in the case of large domestic animals. In the present study, we investigated the growth properties of in vitro-cultured porcine oocytes derived from early developmental stage follicles. Oocy...
