| Popis: | This study was conducted to compare efficacy of treatments with EB or GnRH and different quantities of exogenous progesterone (P4) for synchronization of time of ovulation on follicular growth and pregnancy in lactating dairy cows. In Experiment 1, 40 cows were treated with EB or GnRH and 1.9 or 3.0 g of P4 via progesterone-containing intravaginal devices (IVPD; D0), two doses of PGF2α on D7, GnRH on D9, and TAI on D10. In Experiment 2, 1,440 cows were treated with EB or GnRH and 1 g IVPD on D0, cloprostenol, eCG and EB on D7. Cows in estrus by 48 h were AIDE, and non-estrous cows were administered GnRH and TAI 60 h after IVPD removal. Non-estrous cows were AIDE 72 h after IVPD removal. In Experiment 1, P4 was greater on D7 for cows treated with GnRH than those treated with EB. The dominant follicle was larger for cows treated with GnRH than those treated with EB. In Experiment 2, for estrous cows, pregnancy per AI was greater in cows AI at 48 h compared to 60 h after IVPD removal for cows treated with GnRH, and greater with AI at 60 h after IVPD removal compared to 48 h in EB-treated cows. In non-estrous cows, there was no effect on pregnancy. In conclusion, treatment with GnRH compared with EB resulted in increased P4 regardless of amount of exogenous P4, and there were differential proportions of estrous cows pregnant depending on time of AI after IVPD removal. |
