No increase in mosaic production occurred for cold-shocked cleavage-stage embryos from the ebony stock or from pre-cleavage cold-shocked eggs from a wild-type stock. Heat shock of pre-syngamy eggs also failed to increase th...

The purposes of this study were to examine the relationship between male artificial insemination (AI) fertility and sperm acrosomal conditions assessed by new and conventional staining techniques and to identify possible reproductive dysfunctions causing low conception rates in AI using frozen-thawed spermatozoa with poor acrosomal conditions in Japanese Black bulls. We investigated individual ...
