Equine chorionic gonadotropin improves the efficacy of a progestin-based fixed-time artificial insemination protocol in Nelore (Bos indicus) heifers.

TL;DR: The presence of a CL (and/or onset of puberty) must be considered in setting up FTAI programs in heifers and eCG may be an important tool for the enhancement of follicular growth, ovulation, size and function of the subsequent CL, and pregnancy rates in progestin-based FTAI protocols in Bos indicus heifer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Importance of estrus on pregnancy per insemination in suckled Bos indicus cows submitted to estradiol/progesterone-based timed insemination protocols.

TL;DR: Cows that displayed estrus had better ovarian responses (i.e., larger follicles at TAI, a greater ovulation rate, larger CL, and greater P4 concentrations) following an estradiol/P4-based synchronization protocol.
Journal ArticleDOI

Timed embryo transfer programs for management of donor and recipient cattle

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors focus on the importance of orchestrating donor and recipient management to assure better logistics of procedures to achieve more desirable results with embryo collection and transfer, and provide clear evidence that the use of FTAI in superstimulated donors and FTET in embryo recipients eliminates the need to detect estrus with satisfactory results.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fixed-time AI protocols replacing eCG with a single dose of FSH were less effective in stimulating follicular growth, ovulation, and fertility in suckled-anestrus Nelore beef cows

TL;DR: In conclusion, FSH failed to stimulate final follicular growth, ovulation, and conception rate in sucked-anestrous beef cows submitted to TAI as effectively as eCG, however, physiological effects of eCG seem to be more evident in cows with a lesser BCS.
