Abstract
The correlation between strain fecundity and (i) development and (ii) rate of aneuploidy was studied in rabbit preimplantation embryos obtained from 2 strains of different fecundity. Embryos were investigated at Days 3-6 (preimplantation development) or Days 2, 4 and 6 post coitum (aneuploidy). Embryonic size and cell proliferation varied on the days of investigation, but with no consistent tendency in favour of one strain. The incidence of aneuploidy did not differ significantly between embryos from the 2 strains (P greater than 0.05). The multifactorially determined criterion of prolificacy was not selectively correlated with overall differences in embryonic preimplantation growth and rate of aneuploidy.
