‘Heterosis’ in litter size of chimaeric mice
SUMMARYAggregation chimaeras were made from embryos of C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice. Chimaeric and control females were mated with ICR males at 8 weeks of age and their litter sizes were evaluated over a 5-month period after the first mating. Progeny tests showed that 18 of 27 chimaeras produced oocytes of both genotypes.

Effects of the Litter of Origin and Rearing Litter Size on the Reproductive Potential of Replacement Gilts. [PDF]
This study aimed to assess how prenatal and early postnatal conditions affect the future reproductive performance of young female pigs (gilts). Female piglets were selected from sows in their 3rd and 4th parity. Vaginal and cervical length (VCL) was measured using a catheter during the first (VCLI) and second (VCLII) oestrus.

Effect of SNPs on Litter Size in Swine. [PDF]
Although sows do not directly enter the market, they play an important role in piglet breeding on farms. They consume large amounts of feed, resulting in a significant environmental burden. Pig farms can increase their income and reduce environmental pollution by increasing the litter size (LS) of swine.

The determinants of optimal litter size in free-ranging red squirrels [PDF]
Food availability, energetic ceilings, and life-history trade-offs have been proposed as potential determinants of offspring number in many animals. We investigated the role of these factors in determining litter size in a free-ranging population of red ...

FES‐derived MGE spheroids exhibit progenitor‐stage alterations in developmental trajectory and hypoxia‐responsive transcriptional programs, followed by functional disruption. Gestational hypoxia recapitulates impaired progenitor proliferation, shortened cell‐cycle progression, interneuron developmental abnormalities, and schizophrenia‐like behaviors in
