There is a clear relationship between follicular diameter and oocyte competence. being those obtained from large follicles more developmentally competent in vitro. The aim of this study was to evaluate developmental potential and the expression pattern of candidate genes for the acquisition competence in Bos indicus oocytes originated from different follicle diameters. aBovino aDesenvolvimento folicular1 aFIGUEIREDO, P.
