abstract

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 removing the cidr, pregnant mare's serum gonadotropin (pmsg) hormone was intramuscularly injected at the dosages of 300, 400, 500 and 600 iu in four groups of ewes. cervical artificial insemination was performed after two days following cidr withdrawal and hormone administration. the conception rates in groups i, ii, iii and iv were found as 63.7, 66.1, 65.8 and 67.9%, respectively. the mean litter size was significantly higher in groups ii, iii and iv (1.30, 1.34 and 1.46) than group i (1.11). the fecundity rate was lowest in group i (65.6%). administration of 600 i.u pmsg resulted in the highest (58.9%) multiple births (p

Study of Reproductive Performance of Crossbred Ewes Treated with GnRH and PMSG during Breeding Season

Reproductive performance was evaluated in non-lactating crossbred ewes to which were administered the exogenous GnRH and PMSG. The ewes were randomly allocated in three treatment groups (n=40).After accurate detection of estrus and 2 hours prior to mating, 2.5 mL of distilled water and 2.5 mL of GnRH were injected intramuscular to each ewe of the first (control) and second group, respectively. ...

The Effects of Short and Long Term Medroxy Progesterone Acetate (MAP) Sponge Treatments on Reproductive Performance during the Non-Breeding Season of Arabian Ewes

The aim of this study was to evaluate the reproductive efficiency of short and long term treatment with progestagens in addition to pregnant mare serum gonadotropin (PMSG) in Arabian ewes during the non-breeding season. A total of 56 ewes were divided into three groups: in group I vaginal sponges (60 mg medroxy progesterone acetate; MAP) were applied and removed after 6 days; in group II, vagin...

Factors affecting the reproductive performance of fat-tailed ewes inseminated with laparoscopy in the late breeding season

The reproductive responses to one and two inseminations of frozen-thawed semen were compared in fat-tailed ewes which had previously been used in controlled reproduction programs aimed at estrus synchronization, multiple ovulation embryo transfer, and out of breeding season. In the trials, mature dry (n = 50) ewes in progestagen-induced estrus were inseminated 54 to 56 h after sponge removal. H...

Effects of Progestagen and Pmsg on Estrous Synchronization and Fertility in Kivircik Ewes during Natural Breeding Season

An experiment was conducted using indigenous Kivircik ewes to evaluate the effect of intravaginal progestagen sponges, containing 30 mg of fluorogestone acetate (FGA), followed by administration of pregnant mare serum gonadotrophin (PMSG) on inducing synchronized oestrus in the season and fertility. Three times of PMSG administration relative to sponge withdrawal (24 h before (n = 30), at (n = ...
