Abstract

Recent discoveries on the delivery of small- and large-size molecules and organelles to the oocytes/eggs from external sources, such as surrounding somatic cells, body fluids, and sperm, change our understanding of female germ cells' (oocytes and eggs) self-containment and individuality. In this chapter, we will summarize present-day knowledge on sources and presumptive functions of different types of exogenous molecules and organelles delivered to the animal oocytes and eggs.
