The objective of this study was to evaluate the growth curves of females to determine if mature size and relative rates of maturation among breeds differed. Body weight and hip height data were fitted to the nonlinear function BW = f(age) = A - Be(k×age), where A is an estimate of mature BW and k determines the rate that BW or height moves from B to A. Cows represented progeny from 28 Hereford,...
OBJECTIVE To compare milk yield among cows classified as nonlame, moderately lame, and lame and to examine the relationship between severity of lameness and milk yield in cows classified as lame during the first 100 days after parturition. DESIGN Longitudinal study. ANIMALS 465 Holstein cows. PROCEDURE Cows were examined weekly during the first 100 days after parturition and assigned a la...
The objectives of this study were to evaluate replacing GnRH with hCG and the effects of 48-h calf removal (CR) on pregnancy rates of cows synchronized with the CO-Synch protocol. Suckled beef cows (n = 467) at two locations were assigned to treatment by breed, age, and calving date. Treatment included either GnRH with (n = 121) or without CR (n = 117) or hCG with (n = 115) or without CR (n = 1...
Normal cows have 2 peaks in endometrial epidermal growth factor (EGF) concentrations on Days 2-4 and 13-14, and the absence of peaks has been linked to reduced fertility in repeat breeder (RB) cows. However, the timing of the peaks (i.e., day of examinations) was estimated for a few cows per cycle day. Therefore, the present study characterized EGF peaks and examined if the absence of peaks in ...
Liver condition of Holstein cows affects mitochondrial function and fertilization ability of oocytes
The aim of the present study was to examine the fertilization ability and mitochondrial function of oocytes derived from cows with or without liver damage. Oocytes were collected from the ovaries of cows with damaged livers (DL) and those of cows with healthy livers (HL), subjected to in vitro maturation, and fertilized in vitro. A significantly high abnormal fertilization rate was observed for...
AIM The present study was aimed to study the use of cell counts as an early indicator of mammary health. MATERIALS AND METHODS Milk and blood cell counts were estimated from 8 healthy, 8 subclinical (SCM), and 8 clinically mastitis (CM) groups of Karan Fries (KF) cows. RESULTS Total leucocyte counts and neutrophil percent in blood and milk somatic cells and milk neutrophil percent of health...
To evaluate the effect of intrauterine cephapirin on treatment of endometritis 39 Holstein dairy cows that affected with postpartum endometritis were selected and randomly assigned to two experimental designs. In experiment 1, 6 out of 14 cows were 25 to 30 days after parturition were treated by intrauterine oxytetracycline. Another 8 cows were treated by intrauterine cephapirin (Metri-Care). I...
Milk yield and pre-weaning calf performance of spring-calving Charolais (C) and Beef × Holstein-Friesian (BF) cows was compared over 3 experiments. Cows were individually offered a restricted allowance of grass silage pre partum in Experiments 1 and 2 and ad libitum silage in Experiment 3. In all three experiments cows received silage to appetite for the first 34 (s.d. 16.2) days of lactation. ...
To determine the maternal and reproductive performance of F1 cows in the subtropics, 42 Brahman x Angus, 34 Senepol x Angus, and 50 Tuli x Angus cows were bred to Angus bulls to calve first and subsequently bred to Charolais bulls to calve as 3- to 8-yr-olds. Age at first calving did not differ among crossbred cows. Angus-sired calf birth weights were heavier (P < 0.01) from Senepol x Angus tha...
The aim of our study was to investigate the effects of suckling on reproductive performance and metabolic status of obese (mean body condition score of more than 4.0 on a scale of 1-5) maternal Japanese Black cows during early postpartum period. We used 7 postpartum Japanese Black cattle. Four cows were suckled ad libitum (suckled) until completion of their first artificial insemination (AI), w...
