Growth rates in pre-weaned calves influence their health, age at first calving and lifetime productivity. Many farms restrict milk rations to encourage solid feed intake and facilitate early weaning, but this can compromise growth. This study determi

During luteal regression episodic pulses of oxytocin secretion become coupled to the release of prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF2 alpha) following synthesis of endometrial oxytocin receptors, but in early pregnancy the inhibition of oxytocin receptor form

Therapeutic practices in equine reproductive medicine have dramatically evolved over the last 20 years but current usage is not described. The aims of this study were to provide a description of medication use and clinical findings of reproductive ex

This study was conducted to elucidate mare cervical dilation mechanisms by testing two hypotheses: (i) the proportion of collagen staining in histological samples of mare cervices and (ii) the abundance of hormone receptors in the equine cervix diffe
