Corpus Luteum function and parturition in cattle and pigs
At term pregnancy in cattle and pigs progesterone is from luteal origin. Like in other domestic animal species, parturition in the cow and pig is preceeded by a sudden drop in the matemal plasma progesterone concentration. An increased Output of Prostaglandin from the pregnant uterus is most likely responsible for prepartum luteolysis. The withdrawal of progesterone is not immediately followed ...
متن کاملThe effect of parity on the efficacy of ovulation synchronization (Ovsynch) protocol in buffalo (Bubalus bubalis)
The aim of the present study was to study the effect of parity on the efficacy of Ovsynch protocol in buffalo. Out of 686 buffalo heifers (HE) and 273 cows (BC), 8 heifers and 9 cows were used to monitor and evaluate ovarian follicular dynamics and serum progesterone profile during this protocol while the rest of animals were used to compare the conception rate following the application of this...
متن کاملImproving Dairy Cattle Reproductive Performance
• A calving interval of 13.5 months is an achievable goal that will produce higher daily milk yield and higher milk yield over the length of the lactation. To achieve this goal average days to first service should be <80, yearly 21-day Pregnancy Rates should average >20% and culling for reproductive failure should not exceed 10%. • Management must set standard operating procedures for all aspec...
متن کاملFollicle growth, corpus luteum function and their effects on embryo development in postpartum dairy cows.
Absent or irregular ovarian cycles in lactating dairy cows are caused by failure to ovulate the dominant follicle at the appropriate time. The follicle then either regresses or develops into a cyst. This process can be triggered by a variety of metabolic and disease factors that act at the hypothalamus and pituitary gland to inhibit pulsatile LH secretion and the LH surge, and at the ovary to r...
متن کاملComparison of Pregnancy Rates after Timed Artificial Insemination in Ovsynch, Heatsynch and CIDR-Based Synchronization Protocol in Dairy Cows
The objective of this study was to compare the effects of three different estrus synchronization protocols on the pregnancy rates of lactating dairy cows. Group 1 (Ovsynch protocol; n= ) animals received 20 μg GnRH on day 0, 500 μg PGF2α on day 7 and 20 μg GnRH on day 9; Group 2 (Heatsynch protocol; n= ) received 20 μg GnRH on day 0, 500 μg PGF2α on day 7 and an injection of 1 ml estradiol cypi...
