Introduction:
Fertilization is the process of union of mature male gamete (sperm) with mature female gamete (ovum) to produce new cell of life which is called (zygote) through chain of events in the oviduct (fallopian tubes). Indeed, interruption of any event will cause fertilization failure.
3
Folliculogenesis and ovulation:Folliculogenesis is the maturation of the ovarian follicle,
describes the progression of a number of small primordial follicles into large mature follicles under the influence of FSH prior to puberty.
Ovulation By the end of the follicular phase the mature follicle will develop and rupture, excrete the oocyte with some granulosa cells into oviduct. The oocyte is now competent to undergo fertilization.
Ruptured follicle will transformed into the corpus luteum, that produce large amount of progesterone that helps to prepare the uterus for implantation of fertilized egg
In absence of fertilization corpus luteum degenerates.

Hormonal control of folliculogenesis and ovulation:

Ovum structure:

Mechanisms of ovum transport: Fimbria on terminal oviduct--acts as funnel to receive ovum Fluids (abdominal cavity and that escaping from follicle during ovulation)
serve as medium for free-floating ovum Cilia lining oviduct and muscular contractions assists in moving ovum to
site of fertilization The site of fertilization on most farm animals is (ampullary-isthmic
junction) while in human is (ampulla) region.

Fertile life of ovum: Estimate fertile life of ovum in different mammals is shown
in table(1):
Species Fertile life
Cow 8-12 hours
Sheep 16-24 hours
Swine 8-10 hours
Human 6-24 hours

Mating process : Is the period when female receptive and will stand for
mating with males during estrous phase of estrous cycle, the main purpose of mating is deposition of fertile semen into female genital tract after ejaculation, characteristics of ejaculate in different mammals is shown in table(2):
speciesSite of semen deposition
Volume of ejaculate (ml)
Sperm concentration
(billion/ml)
No. of sperm reaching site of
fertilization
Cow Vagina 4 1 4200-27500
Sheep Vagina 1 2 600-5000
SwineCervix and
uterus125 0.200 Few
Human Vagina 3.5 0.120 Few

12
Deposition of semen into female tract must be closely synchronized with ovulation to ensure the incidence of fertilization
Time of ovulation in different mammals shown in table(3):
species Time of ovulation
Cow 10-12 hours after end of estrous phase
Sheep Late of estrous phase
Goat Few hours after end of estrous phase
Swine Mid-estrous phase
Human Day(14) after initiation of menstrual cycle

13
Mechanisms of sperm transport: Pass into cervix by own movement As the sperm enter the cervix, orient themselves into current of thin
mucus during estrus Myometrium moves them through the uterus Moved through oviduct by cilia of oviduct and uterine contractions
and a thin fluid secreted by glandular cells.

Fertile life of sperm:Estimate fertile life of sperm in different mammals is shown
in table(4):
Species Fertile life
Cow 24-48 hours
Sheep 30-48 hours
Swine 24-48 hours
Human 28-48 hoursAdapted from [Hamner54a, McLaren, Dukelow and Riegle

Fertilization events:
a) Sperm capacitation: Freshly ejaculated sperm are unable to fertilize an egg.
Rather, they must first undergo a series of changes known as capacitation. Capacitation is associated with removal of adherent seminal plasma proteins, reorganization of plasma membrane lipids and proteins.
16
b) Acrosome reaction: The acrosome reaction involves breakdown and fusion of outer acrosome
membrane with the plasma membrane of the sperm. This results in formation of vesicles and release of enzymes needed for sperm to penetrate the cumulus oophorus and corona radiata as well as zona pellucida . during the penetration process the acrosome is lost with only the inner acrosomal membrane remaining around the sperm head.
17
c) Sperm penetration: Sperm cell penetrate cumulus oophorus by the enzyme (hyaluronidase)
released during acrosome reaction Sperm cell penetrate corona radiata by the enzyme (corona-penetrating
enzyme) also released during acrosome reaction. Sperm cell penetrate zona pellucida by the acrosin (trypsinlike enzyme)
also released during acrosome reaction.
Mohamad J. (according to McRorie and Williams,1974 Ann. Rev. Biochem.)

Then membrane of sperm fuses with the vitelline membrane of the egg, the egg cytoplasm around the area of contact surrounds the sperm head and incorporating it into the egg
The nucleus of sperm is then release into the egg cytoplasm without the tail
19 Animation show entrance of sperm nucleus into the egg
20
d) Consequences of fertilization:
In most mammals after releasing the sperm nucleus into egg cytoplasm it stimulates the diffusion of cortical granules into the previtelline space, the erection of a barrier to prevent fertilization by more than one sperm will occur, this process is called zona reaction and vitelline block.
Then the male and female pronuclei are formed and unite (syngamy) to establish the diploid one cell zygote.
21Animation show egg activation
22
Time of formation of zygote and time required to entry the fertile ovum into uterus in different mammals is shown in table(5):
SpeciesTime of formation of zygote (hours)
Entry to uterus (days)
Cow 0-24 3-4
Sheep 0-38 2-4
Goat 0-30 4
Swine 0-15 2-4
Human 0-24 3
-Adapted from [Brinster, R. L., J. Anim. Sci. 38, 1003 (1973)]-Times estimated from ovulation
23
Post fertilization events:
The first of many changes following fertilization is to become multicellular, and the one-cell embryo rapidly cleaves into 2, 4, 8 and more cells. It then starts to do some interesting things like develop a discrete inside and an outside. Finally, the embryos of many species start to secrete hormones that ensure their survival - a process called maternal recognition of pregnancy.
