Description for Oogenesis
Oogenesis - the process by which female germ cells develop intomature eggs, or ova - is a complex process involving many importantelements of developmental and cellular biology: from cell-cellinteractions, complex signalling cascades, specialized cell cyclesand cytoskeleton organization. Num Pages: 516 pages, Illustrations. BIC Classification: PSC; PSF; PSVH. Category: (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly. Dimension: 251 x 175 x 33. Weight in Grams: 1036.
Oogenesis - the process by which female germ cells develop into mature eggs, or ova - is a complex process involving many important elements of developmental and cellular biology: from cell-cell interactions, complex signalling cascades, specialized cell cycles and cytoskeleton organization. Oocytes from various species (including clam, starfish, xenopus and mouse) are excellent model systems to study the biochemistry of cell division with important implications for basic and clinical research.
