In this study production, reproduction, population, management and economic parameters resulted from recording of 7 flocks with size 57 to 400 and 721 heads of camels in a cycle of reproduction, during three years from 2011 to 2013 were used to find out of the economic values of important traits in one hump camel in desert areas rearing system. The economic traits that appeared in profit equati...

When lactating rats were mated at the post-partum oestrus, treated with a single dose of bromocriptine (2 mg/kg body wt) 7 days later, and killed on Day 11, implantation was induced in 8/24 animals. When the litter was removed at the time of bromocriptine treatment 5/9 rats had implantations compared with 9/10 after litter removal alone.

Three trials involving 87 gilts were completed to investigate the role of additional sexual stimulation on various reproductive parameters. Forty-five gilts were mated twice at 12-h intervals at second pubertal estrus with intact boars beginning 12 h after detection of sexual receptivity (control group). Forty-two gilts were exposed to a vasectomized boar 15 min following each fertile mating to...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of body weight (BW) change during the early postpartum period and BW on day 50 post partum on the subsequent expression of estrus and fertility at first insemination before day 90 post partum. The data were derived from 1036 postpartum cows reaching 90 days in milk. The following data were recorded for each animal: lactation number, daily milk pr...

Although the number of dairy farms is decreasing, that of large farms is increasing in Japan. Milk production in Japanese dairy cows has increased from 62 kg/year to 88 kg/year over the last 2 decades. However, Japanese dairy cows are experiencing a sustained decline in reproductive performance, calving intervals, and days open; further, the number of inseminations required for conception have ...

The fungus Cryptococcus neoformans can undergo a-α bisexual and unisexual reproduction. Completion of both sexual reproduction modes requires similar cellular differentiation processes and meiosis. Although bisexual reproduction generates equal number of a and α progeny and is far more efficient than unisexual reproduction under mating-inducing laboratory conditions, the α mating type dominates...

Estrus detection is an essential operation in the breeding of sows, and accurate estrus immensely important to maintain productivity reproductive performance sow. However, traditional sow relies on manually back-pressure test, which time-consuming labor-intensive. This study aimed develop automatic method detect estrus. In this study, a model based optimized yolov5s algorithm was constructed fo...
