Cortisol and heart rate response of mares during the in‐hand breeding procedure with and without restraint

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background In‐hand breeding involving restraint methods is likely the most common practice in the horse breeding industry worldwide. However, welfare issues that arise from such management have not been investigated in detail. Objectives (1) To investigate whether the mares show increased stress responses during in‐hand breeding using (a) a ...

A simple ELISA for detection of ovulation.

The Indian journal of medical research, 1990
A rapid, simple, two-step test for the detection of ovulation has been developed. The test is based on ELISA of pregnanediol glucuronide, a metabolite of progesterone, in urine collected specifically over a period of 3 h. The test is completed in 20 min and the results are assessed visually by naked eye.

Unravelling the Genetic Mechanisms of Litter Traits in a Maternal Line of Pigs

Journal of Animal Breeding and Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Reproductive traits related to litter size are the main indicators of reproductive efficiency in pig production and are continuously evaluated for the selection of maternal lines. Several environmental and genetic factors are involved with the development of these traits.

Ultrasonography as a non‐invasive technique to assess the effects of diet on the ovaries of female European seabass (Dicentrarchus labrax)

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Broodstock management in aquaculture aims to optimise larval production to meet farm demand, which requires precise monitoring of the reproductive cycle. Traditional methods such as histology often require killing of fish, making them unsuitable for monitoring reproductive dynamics at fish level.
