Gonadotropin Concentrations, Follicular Development, And Luteal Function In Pituitary Stalk-Transfected Ewes Treated With Bovine Follicular Fluid, G. Larson, David Mallory, R. Dailey, P. Lewis
David S. Mallory
Two experiments, each arranged as a 2 x 2 factorial, were conducted in ewes to examine direct effects of bovine follicular fluid (bFF) on follicular development and luteal function and to further characterize follicular development and luteal function after pituitary stalk transection (SS). In Exp. 1, ewes were sham-operated or SS on d 6 of an estrous cycle and received 5 ml of saline or bFF three times daily on d 5 through 11 of the same cycle. In Exp. 2, all ewes were SS on d 6 of an estrous cycle and treated with saline or bFF three times …
