A team of researchers has observed sperm mRNA in newly fertilized eggs, according to a paper published in the May 13 Nature, in a finding that provides alternative explanations for mammalian parthenogenesis, cloning, and male infertility, the team writes. The results would also have immediate applications for treating infertile couples and for providing a screen for toxicological effects in spermatogenesis, said coauthor Steven Krawetz.
