Effects of PMSG Doses on Reproductive Performance of Kurdi Ewes Artificially Inseminated during Breeding Season

This experiment was conducted to determine the reproductive performance of Kurdi ewes which were artificially inseminated (AI). In total 240 Kurdi ewes, weighing 49.5±2.5 kg were used in the trail. The ewes were allocated randomly to one of four groups (n=60/in each group). For synchronizing, controlled internal drug release (CIDR) was placed in the vagina of all individuals for 14 days. After ...

Effect of number of motile sperms inseminated on reproductive performance of rabbit does.

The relationship between the number of motile sperms inseminated and fertility rate and litter size at birth in rabbits was investigated. A total of 651 artificial inseminations on multiparous rabbit does in different physiological states (lactating or not; sexually receptive or not) were inseminated with a number of motile cells/dose varying from about 1-20 x 10(6). The statistical model compu...
