- Abstract
The article presents a study which examined a fertile mule in China. According to the authors, the sterility of mules has long been recognized. But in China, where mules are bred intensively by means of artificial insemination, there has been no doubt that the animals are occasionally fertile. It is known that the germ cells migrate normally into the fetal gonads of female mules and surviving oocytes will induce the development of normal follicular cells.
