Advanced reproductive technologies have been developed to enhance fertility in mares and
stallions. Some of these technologies in mares include superovulation, embryo transfer (ET) …

During the primary follicular wave of the mare's estrous cycle, it is typical for one follicle to
become dominant and several subordinate follicles to regress. During estrus the dominant …

The effectiveness of different treatments with recombinant equine FSH to stimulate follicular
growth, multiple ovulations and embryo production in seasonally anovulatory mares was …

The dynamics of ovarian follicular development depend on a timely interaction of
gonadotropins and gonadal feedback in the mare. The development and efficacy of …

The mare is polyestrous, seasonal long-day breeder. The endocrinology of the estrous cycle
involves a balance between hormones produced by the pineal gland, hypothalamus …

Traditionally, mares are put under artificial lights to advance the first ovulation of the year.
The aim of the present study was to determine the efficacy of recombinant equine FSH …

The most common equine breeding practice to decrease the time to the first ovulation of the
year is to use artificial lights starting December 1 in the Northern Hemisphere. It can take 60 …

The mammalian oviduct plays a crucial role in the preparation of gametes for fertilisation
(transport and final maturation) and fertilisation itself. An increasing number of studies offers …

Contents The objective of this study was to compare the efficacy of purified equine‐and
porcine‐FSH treatment regimes in mares in early vernal transition. Mares (n= 22) kept under …

Background Induction of multiple ovulations, or superovulation, may potentially increase the
efficiency of equine embryo transfer programs. Our objective was to investigate the effects of …
