چکیده
In this paper, an account of various aspects related to buffalo reproduction are given. Fundamental concepts of the reproductive physiology as well as manipulation of the reproductive function will be presented. This will include an overview of the most recent developments of the oestrous cycle and the ovulation control, new strategies of reproductive management for the improvement of genetic gain and the application of newly developed reproductive technologies, such as in vitro embryo production, embryo and sperm sexing and cloning.

P-117: The In Vitro Effect of Leptin on Semen Quality of Water Buffalo (Bubal Us Bubalis) Bulls
Background: Several studies have recently investigated the role of leptin, the polypeptide hormone secreted primarily by white adipose tissue, in the reproduction of rodents, humans, and domestic animals. Materials and Methods: To investigate the in vitro effect of leptin on buffalo semen quality in equilibrated and frozen thawed semen, five healthy buffalo bulls (5 ejaculates from each bull) w...
متن کاملImprovement of vitrification of in vitro produced buffalo embryos with special reference to sex ratio following vitrification
Cryopreservation and sexing of embryos are integrated into commercial embryo transfer technologies. To improve the effectiveness of vitrification of in vitro produced buffalo embryos, two experiments were conducted. The first evaluated the effect of exposure time (2 and 3 min) and developmental stage (morula and blastocysts) on the viability and development of vitrified buffalo embryos. Morphol...
متن کاملEvaluating a murine model of endometritis using uterine isolates of Escherichia coli from postpartum buffalo
Ascending infection of the uterus with Gram-negative bacteria is responsible for postpartum endometritis in cattle and buffalo and can adversely affect fertility. Development of a laboratory animal model for bovine endometritis would facilitate the understanding of the pathogenesis as it is difficult to conduct controlled experimentation in the native host. In the present study, 30 virgin Swiss...

متن کاملSperm Characteristics in Cryopreserved Buffalo Bull Semen and Field Fertility
Semen quality and its relationship to fertility are major concern in animal production. The aim of this study was to assess the relationship between frozen thawed sperm characteristics and fertility following in vivo fertility through Artificial Insemination(AI). Semen samples were collected from four buffalo bulls. Semen volume and sperm concentration appeared to be significantly different (P0...
