title: [Parthenogenesis in mammals].
abstract: A review of studies dealing with spontaneous and induced parthenogenesis in mammals. The main methods of artificial egg activation, ways of their development and causes of mortality of the parthenogenetic mouse embryos are considered. The possibilities of using parthenogenesis for solving urgent problems of mammalian developmental biology are estimated and prospects of further studies in this field are outlined.
