Popis: Optimising the developmental potential of immature equine oocytes and invitro-produced (IVP) embryos was explored through modifications of established media and holding temperature. In Experiment 1, delaying spontaneous resumption of meiosis through the process of simulated physiological oocyte maturation with the addition of the adenylate cyclase activator forskolin (50µM) and the phosphodiesterase inhibitor 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine (100µM) to overnight holding medium before maturation improved blastocyst production (P
