SummaryDuring female gamete production oocytes arrest during the diplotene stage of meiosis I before completing diakinesis and moving into meiosis II. In response to hormones, oocytes resume and complete meiosis to produce the final mature gametes. In C. elegans, meiotic maturation is triggered by major sperm protein through G-alpha-S-adenylate cyclase - protein kinase A (PKA) signaling and soma-to-germline communication.
