Embryo transfer in subfertile mares

Acta Vet Scand. 1989;30(3):329-33. doi: 10.1186/BF03548039.

Abstract

Four subfertile mares (at least 2 barren years) were used as donors in an embryo transfer program. The embryo recovery rate was 50%, varying between 0-100. The transfer of 9 embryos resulted in the pregnancy rate of 44%. The efficiency of embryo transfer using subfertile mares is low. In this material 20% of flushings resulted in a pregnancy.

Fyra subfertila ston (gatt galla i minst 2 är) användes som donatorer i ett program för embryot rans fer. Femtio procent av embryon tillvaratogs (varians 0–100%). Transfer av 9 embryon gav en dräktighetsresultat på 44%. Embryotransfer från subfertila ston leder till nedsatt effektivitet, I föreliggande material resulterade 20% av sköljningarna i dräktighet.
