Efficiency of Producing White Leghorn Hatching Eggs Via Artificial Insemination and Natural Mating

Development of Ovulation Synchronisation Protocols to Facilitate Natural Mating and Artificial Insemination Breeding Systems

improvement of artificial insemination efficiency in zandi ewes via estradiol and oxytocin injection

the aim followed in the present study was to evaluate the effect of estradiol (e2) injection and injection (either intramuscular (i.m) or intravenous (i.v)) of various doses of oxytocin (ot) on cervix dilation and on conception rate in zandi ewes during late breeding season. sixty three ewes were randomly selected. in experiment 1, the ewes received 100 µl e2 and 12h later were divided and assi...

Differences in Mating between a Boar, Traditional Artificial Insemination, and Post Cervical Insemination

As populations around the globe are growing the demand for pork protein in the human diet is increasing. Technologies utilized in 1990s such as artificial insemination have improved our capabilities to produce leaner carcasses. Utilizing superior genetics and breeding techniques as tools to improve growth rates, feed efficiency, and carcass quality is imperative for the swine industry to succes...

Performance and behaviour of rabbit does in a group-housing system with natural mating or artificial insemination.

This study compared reproductive performance and behaviour of does raised in a group-housing system and in a regular cage system. The group-housing pen was divided into different functional areas for suckling, resting, and eating and special hiding areas for kits when they had left the nest-boxes and does to favour the species specific behavioural traits. Does had access to their nest-box by me...
