Abstract:Insemination at an inappropriate time is one of many constraints to good fertility in dairy cows. As a result, many studies have attempted to improve the synchrony of oestrus in controlled breeding programmes. However, the success of insemination depends not merely on the detection of oestrus, but also on the timing of ovulation relative to insemination. Thus a better understanding of the factors associated with the precise timing of behavioural oestrus and ovulation is required. In this study the time of ovul… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
