Type of CIDR but not eCG administration affected pregnancy per AI in Holstein heifers subjected to a 5-day estrus synchronization protocol

Journal of Applied Animal Research, 2022
This study compared the effects of CIDR type and eCG treatment on ovarian follicular dynamics, estrus response and pregnancy per AI (P/AI) in Holstein heifers subjected to a 5-d estrus synchronization protocol. On Day 0, heifers (n = 133) received either

A Novel SAT-Based Approach to the Task Graph Cost-Optimal Scheduling Problem [PDF]

, 2010
The Task Graph Cost-Optimal Scheduling Problem consists in scheduling a certain number of interdependent tasks onto a set of heterogeneous processors (characterized by idle and running rates per time unit), minimizing the cost of the entire process. This

In vitro sperm characteristics and in vivo fertility of sex-sorted and conventional semen in suckled Nelore cows at a traditional schedule for timed-AI with estrus detection

, 2022
The aim of this study was to assess in vitro sperm characteristics and pregnancies/AI (P/AI) of conventional and sex-sorted semen at timed-AI of suckled, multiparous Nelore cows. All cows (n=348) were submitted to a traditional estradiol/progesterone(P4)-

Effect of dose and frequency of prostaglandin F2α treatments during a 7-day Ovsynch protocol with an intravaginal progesterone releasing device on luteal regression and pregnancy outcomes in lactating Holstein cows

Journal of Dairy Science, 2023
: Our objective was to evaluate the effect of 3 different Ovsynch protocols on progesterone (P4) and pregnancies per artificial insemination (P/AI), where all cows received a P4 releasing intravaginal device (PRID) from d 0 until d 8.
