Enhancement of sow reproductive performance by beta-carotene or vitamin A

Journal of Animal Science, 71(5), 1198.

By: M. Coffey n & J. Britt n

MeSH headings : Animals; Carotenoids / administration & dosage; Carotenoids / pharmacology; Dose-Response Relationship, Drug; Estrus / drug effects; Female; Injections, Intramuscular / veterinary; Litter Size / drug effects; Parity; Pregnancy; Progesterone / blood; Random Allocation; Reproduction / drug effects; Swine / physiology; Vitamin A / administration & dosage; Vitamin A / pharmacology; Weaning; beta Carotene
TL;DR: There was a dose x parity interaction on the number of pigs born dead and born Alive and born alive, because treatment with beta-carotene did not affect reproduction in primiparous sows, but litters subsequently farrowed by multiparousSows had more pigs born alive and fewer pigs Born dead.

EFFECTS OF THE PERIPUBERTAL REARING ENVIRONMENT ON ENDOCRINE AND BEHAVIORAL-RESPONSES TO ESTROUS FEMALE EXPOSURE IN THE MATURE BULL

APPLIED ANIMAL BEHAVIOUR SCIENCE, 35(3), 245–253.

By: K. Borg n, K. Esbenshade n & B. Johnson n

TL;DR: The results suggest that the rearing environment, at or near the time of puberty, can alter subsequent endocrine responses during mating with little or no effect on behavioural parameters during the post-pubertal period of the bull. (via Semantic Scholar)

MULTITRAIT RESTRICTED AND DESIRED GAINS SELECTION INDEXES DESIGNED TO CHANGE GROWTH AND BODY-COMPOSITION IN MICE

JOURNAL OF ANIMAL BREEDING AND GENETICS-ZEITSCHRIFT FUR TIERZUCHTUNG UND ZUCHTUNGSBIOLOGIE, 110(1), 13–29.

By: E. Eisen n

TL;DR: Effectiveness of restricted and desired gains index selection to change growth and body composition was tested in mice and correlated responses in component traits of the indices did not agree closely with expectation. (via Semantic Scholar)

EFFECT OF GENETIC BACKGROUND ON GROWTH OF MICE HEMIZYGOTIC FOR WILD-TYPE OR DWARF MUTATED BOVINE GROWTH-HORMONE TRANSGENES

THEORETICAL AND APPLIED GENETICS, 87(1-2), 161–169.

By: E. Eisen n, M. Fortman n, W. Chen* & J. Kopchick *

author keywords: GROWTH HORMONE; MICE; TRANSGENE; GROWTH
TL;DR: Results indicate that the effect of a GH transgene on growth can be affected both by a high-growth genetic background and the gender of progeny. (via Semantic Scholar)
