On the necessity of different statistical treatment for Illumina BeadChip and Affymetrix GeneChip data and its significance for biological interpretation
TL;DR: The results in this work show that it is important to process Illumina BeadChip data in a modified statistical procedure and to compute the standard deviation in experiments with technical replicates from the standard errors of individual BeadChips.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human chorionic gonadotropin-induced spermiation in Bufo arenarum is not mediated by steroid biosynthesis.
Andrea G. Pozzi,Nora R. Ceballos +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that spermiation induced by hCG is not steroid mediated in B. arenarum.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neural Regulation of Ejaculation
TL;DR: LSt cells appear to play a vital role in the generation and regulation of ejaculatory behavior, and the direction of future behavioral investigations is discussed, including pharmacological manipulation of LSt cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Multiple mating, sperm transfer and oviposition pattern in the giant sperm species, Drosophila bifurca
Frederic Mery,Dominique Joly +1 more
TL;DR: An extremely limited overlap of ejaculates was found owing to reduced sperm transfer to females that had already mated, and female remating depended both on the amount of sperm transferred and the modes of egg laying.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy turnover in European hares is centrally limited during early, but not during peak lactation
Teresa G. Valencak,Thomas Ruf +1 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that extreme MEI may have fitness costs, and that females maximize lifetime reproductive success by actively down-regulating MEI whenever possible.

Seasonal breeding:nature's contraceptive.
G A Lincoln,Roger V. Short +1 more
TL;DR: The seasonal cycle highlights the seasonal changes in daylight length, rutting behavior, testicular diameter, sexual skin flush, and concentrations of plasma follicle-stimulating hormone, prolactin, and testosterone in a group of rams throughout the year.
Journal ArticleDOI
The physiological responses of anovulatory ewes to the introduction of rams: a review.
TL;DR: Ewes of many breeds can be stimulated to ovulate by the reintroduction of rams and appear to be effected both through a delay in the onset of the LH surge and through a direct action of progesterone on the ovary.
Journal ArticleDOI
Factors affecting the secretion of luteinizing hormone in the ewe.
TL;DR: LH is secreted as discrete pulses throughout all stages of the reproductive cycle of the ewe, including pre‐pubertal, seasonal and lactational anoestrus, and the luteal and follicular phases of the oestrous cycle.
Nutritional influences on reproduction in mature male sheep and goats
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that nutritional signals exert powerful effects on the reproductive system of mature male ruminants, and the responses are partly independent of changes in gonadotrophin secretion.
