Five studies were conducted in yearling heifers which were either puberal or prepuberal utilizing the Syncro-Mate-B (SMB) treatment (G. D. Searle & Co., Chicago, Ill.). In trial 1 the pregnancy rate in Brahman crossbred heifers after 21 days of breeding was 56% and 28% greater (P<.005) in the SMB treated groups than in the nontreated groups. Pregnancy rate in 3 4 Simmental heifers (trial 2) was increased 39% (P<.05) after 21 days of breeding. Hereford and crossbred heifers (trial 3) weighing less than 250 kg failed to respond to SMB treatment whereas heifers weighing greater then 250 kg had increased reproductive performance. Conversely the results obtained in trial 4 using Brahman crossbred heifers was not influenced by weight or SMB treatment. Crossbred Santa Gertrudis heifers (trial 5) weighing greater then 250 kg and treated with SMB had improved reproductive performance compared to the control groups. While in treated heifers weighing less than 250 kg reproductive performance was far from optimum. |
