 @article{mcintyre_christensen_bagley_1986, title={EFFECT OF SPERM NUMBERS PER INSEMINATION FOLLOWING EARLY OR LATE INITIAL INSEMINATIONS IN TURKEYS}, volume={65}, ISSN={["0032-5791"]}, DOI={10.3382/ps.0651400}, abstractNote={Large White turkey hens were used in this study to investigate sperm storage in the hen throughout a 20-week breeding cycle. Hens were initially inseminated early or late and subsequently at 7-day intervals with either 20, 50, or 100 million sperm each time. Early inseminations (EI) were performed on Days 14 and 17 postlighting, and the late inseminations (LI) were performed on Days 21 and 24 postlighting. Fertility (percent) was calculated weekly for 20 weeks following the second initial insemination in each group. Fertility was greatest in EI hens for the 20-week period; the largest difference occurred between EI and LI treatments of the 50 million sperm/insemination group. A significant interaction was observed between time of initial insemination and sperm numbers per insemination. Overall fertility was improved with each increase in sperm numbers/insemination.}, number={7}, journal={POULTRY SCIENCE}, author={MCINTYRE, DR and CHRISTENSEN, VL and BAGLEY, LG}, year={1986}, month={Jul}, pages={1400–1404} }
 @article{mcintyre_christensen_1985, title={Effect of initial insemination and insemination interval on fertility in turkey hens}, volume={64}, DOI={10.3382/ps.0641549}, abstractNote={Large White turkey hens were used to observe fertility through a 20-week laying cycle (31 to 51 weeks of age), following early initial inseminations (EI) and late initial inseminations (LI). Early initial inseminations were made on Days 13 and 15 following photostimulation with subsequent artificial insemination (AI) every 7 (EI + 7) or 14 (EI + 14) days. Late initial inseminations were made on Days 20 and 22 postlighting with subsequent AI every 7 (LI + 7) or 14 (LI + 14) days. Percent of egg production, fertility, and hatch of fertile eggs were measured following the initial AI in each treatment. No significant differences in egg production were seen between treatments. Percent of fertility was greatest in Weeks 6 to 20 with 7-day AI intervals as compared to 14-day intervals. Early inseminations resulted in higher fertility than LI with 14-day AI intervals, but no difference was observed with 7-day intervals. Greater fertility in EI + 14 hens through 20 weeks of egg production, as compared to LI + 14 hens, seems to lend further support to the concept of enhanced oviduct receptiveness to spermatozoa before egg production commences.}, number={8}, journal={Poultry Science}, author={McIntyre, D.
