Production and storage of goat semen for artificial insemination

TL;DR: A review is given on the use of frozen-thawed semen for artificial insemination (AI) in spontaneous and induced oestrus and factors influencing the fertility.

New treatments associated with timed artificial insemination in small ruminants.

TL;DR: New information and concepts in the hormonal control of the life span of the corpus luteum, as well as methods to manipulate follicular growth in small ruminants are summarized.

Advanced assisted reproduction technologies (ART) in goats

TL;DR: Transgenesis and cloning are expected to have a significant impact on the future genetic improvement of livestock because of low efficiencies and high costs, their present use is restricted to applications with high returns such as the production of recombinant proteins of pharmaceutical and biomedical interest.

The pattern and manipulation of ovarian follicular growth in goats.

TL;DR: Using ultrasonography a new field has been opened and surely successful output will be forthcoming in the next years to improve reproductive management of the goat, the fastest growing ruminant population in the world.

Pharmaceutical Control of Reproduction in Sheep and Goats

TL;DR: Small ruminant species such as sheep and goats are short-day breeders, which is a crucial factor affecting the offer of lambs and kids throughout the year, and an appropriate management of reproduction allows ewes and does to breed in the spring to increase the supply of product to the marketplace on a year-round basis.

Effect of stress due to laparoscopy on plasma cortisol levels, the preovulatory surge of LH, and ovulation in the ewe

TL;DR: The ovulation which is induced in seasonally anovular ewes by the introduction of rams was used as a model to examine the effects of the stress of repeated laparoscopy on the preovulatory surge of LH and ovulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diurnal variation in the response of anoestrous ewes to the ram effect

TL;DR: The re-introduction of rams after a period of separation was used to stimulate LH secretion and induce ovulation in seasonally anovulatory ewes maintained under natural photoperiod and there was a distinct diurnal variation in the secretion of prolactin.

TL;DR: It is concluded that prostaglandin is luteolytic when administered into does anytime beyond four days after the end of estrus.
