Mare coming into estrus
nervousness, will urinate, more accepting, winking, LESS homo activity than cows
Advantages of AI
genetic improvement, disease control, breeding records, saftey,
disadvantages of AI
more work

a zygote is placed into the uterine tube so fertilization in test tube then put in oviducts

Mare breeding season
April-July
Mare estrous Cycle
21 days
Mare estrus
6 days
repro eff mare
fair
fertilization ratesmare
85 %
ovulation in mare
1 day before end of estrus
foal heat
7-9 days after foaling only on that does this nursing retards this it normally does not work so give pgf then breed on next cycle
why doesnt foal heat work
because the uterus has not been p4 to make everything work again
Change in progesterone levels in breeding season vs not
go up to 10ng/ml and drop to <1ng/ml
Extended lutyal function
when the mare is going out of the breeding season but not producing enough pgf to cause lutyal regression and has an extened p4 pattern
Rather than the estrous cycle what is it called int he horse
intraovulatory interval because of the varitation in estrual behavior
How many follicular waves dose the mare have
1 or 2 ovulates day 0 and ist wave is day 10 second wave is day 20 and ovulate day 21
so if the horse has a 5 day estrus what day will there be a dom follicle
5-1+10=day 14
how to make the horse ovulate?
hCG
if giving hCG when do you AI
At the same time
ovary structure of mare: where are the zones?
outer zone is the cortical zone inner zone is the medullary zone
why is it diff to superovulate the horse?
because there is only one site of ovulation at the ovarian fossa
average range of the interovulatory interval
18-24 because of the highly variable estrus 2-10 days
good signs of estrus
wining, urination, standing raising tail
with pregnancy in mare the embryo enters the uterus on day?
5-6
embryo has motility response in uterus by day
6
fixation occurs to uterus by day
16
how manny mares exhibit estrus behavior during early pregnancy
10% gravid estrus
three sources of progesterone to maintain the embryo
primary seconday and fetal placental unit
primary (days)
the CL resulting from ovulation of the oocyte up to day 40
secondary (Days)
day 40-180 accessory CL can form ovulatory or anovulatory follicles help maintain P4
Fetal placental unit
starts to produce p4 between day 60-80 and continue to produce until near birth this is why u cant find P4 in the horses blood at end of preg bc foal produces it
endometrial cups produce?
eCG
where do endometrial cups come from?
from the chorionic girdle cells of the equine embryo
what day do the cups show
day 37 invasion of girdle cells and day 40 cups develop
mature cups are on day?
55
cups are gone by day
120
Two functions of the endometrial cups
1. stimulates resurgence of progesterone production by primary CL 2. stimulates dev and function of accessory CL to increase progesterone secretion
eCG in the horse acts like what other hormone ?
its LH like
what hormone does eCG act liek in other farm animals?
FH
Why cant eCG levels be used for preg check
bc you have to know where she wold be in her preg and you can just do an ultrasound before day 37 when cups start also fetus could be dead but still secreting it so a false positive or also past day 120 your can get a false neg bc it wont show up
what cell origin is eCG
embryo and chorionic girdle cells
embryo maintains preg int he horse by?
eCG which is lutyaltropic
live annual foaling rate from natural mating is? AI?
85% and lower in AI its higher in wild horses
% that concieve on foal heat
60-70% but loss is higher
only animal that has a fertile post partum estrus
horse
a steroid/progestine that is give so horses dont express estrus and is used to help maintain preg
regumate
why use an ovulation test
you test for inhibin after ovulation and subtract the hours and you have when the mare ovulated
inibin from the ovary does what
decreases FSH output from pituitary
embryo motality % during foal heat
23%
if you have amare that wont maintain pregnancy b4 the fetal unit takes over what to do?
give regu mate
in the human what is lutyaltropic
hCG it peaks then goes down embryo puts out small doses
what day does hCG peak
day 56 and last 6-7 days
Plan B
synthetic P4 and it enhances the transport of fertilized eggs before they are ready
mirena
causes low grade infection so implantation does not happen
