The Distribution Characteristics and Applications for Maternal Cells on Chicken Egg Vitelline Membrane

Abstract The major components of vitelline membrane (VM) are ovomucin, VM outer (VMO) I and VMO II. At present, the distribution pattern of maternal cells on the VM has not been described in detail. In this study, the existence and distribution characteristics of maternal cells on VM were observed....
