Two experiments were conducted to determine estrous response and pregnancy rate in beef cattle given a controlled internal drug release (CIDR-B) device plus prostaglandin F2 alpha (PGF) at CIDR-B removal, and estradiol or gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH). In Experiment I, crossbred beef heifers received a CIDR-B device and 1 mg estradiol benzoate (EB), plus 100 mg progesterone (E + P group; n = 41), 100 micrograms gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH group; n = 42), or no further treatment (Control group; n = 42), on Day 0. On Day 7, CIDR-B devices were removed and heifers were treated with PGF. Heifers in the E + P group were given 1 mg EB, 24 h after PGF, and then inseminated 30 h later. Heifers in the GnRH group were given 100 micrograms GnRH, 54 h after PGF, and concurrently inseminated. Control heifers were inseminated 12 h after onset of estrus. The estrous rate was lower (P < 0.01) in the GnRH group (55%) than in either the E + P (100%) or Control (83%) groups. The mean interval from CIDR-B removal to estrus was shorter (P < 0.01) and less variable (P < 0.01) in the E + P group than in the GnRH or Control groups. Pregnancy rate in the E + P group (76%) was higher (P < 0.01) than in the GnRH (48%) or Control (38%) groups. In Experiment II, 84 cows were treated similarly to the E + P group in Experiment I. Cows received 100 mg progesterone and either 1 mg EB or 5 mg estradiol-17 beta (E-17 beta) on Day 0 and either 1 mg of EB or 1 mg of E-17 beta on Day 8 (24 h after CIDR-B removal), in a 2 x 2 factorial design, and were inseminated 30 h later. There were no differences among groups for estrous rates or conception rates. The mean interval from CIDR-B removal to estrus was 44.2 h, s = 11.2. Conception rates were 67%, 62%, 52%, and 71% in Groups E-17 beta/E-17 beta, E-17 beta/EB, EB/E-17 beta, and EB/EB, respectively. In cattle given a CIDR-B device and estradiol plus progesterone, treatment with either EB or E-17 beta effectively synchronized estrus and resulted in acceptable conception rates to fixed-time artificial insemination.
进行了两项试验,以确定在取出控制内部药物释放(CIDR - B)装置时给予前列腺素F2α(PGF)以及雌二醇或促性腺激素释放激素(GnRH)的肉牛的发情反应和妊娠率。在试验I中,杂交肉牛小母牛在第0天接受CIDR - B装置和1毫克苯甲酸雌二醇(EB),加100毫克孕酮(E + P组;n = 41)、100微克促性腺激素释放激素(GnRH组;n = 四十二),或不进行进一步处理(对照组;n = 42)。在第7天,取出CIDR - B装置,并用PGF处理小母牛。E + P组的小母牛在PGF处理后24小时给予1毫克EB,然后在30小时后进行授精。GnRH组的小母牛在PGF处理后54小时给予100微克GnRH,并同时进行授精。对照小母牛在发情开始后12小时进行授精。GnRH组的发情率(55%)低于E + P组(100%)或对照组(83%)(P < 0.01)。E + P组从取出CIDR - B装置到发情的平均间隔时间比GnRH组或对照组短(P < 0.01)且变异性小(P < 0.01)。E + P组的妊娠率(76%)高于GnRH组(48%)或对照组(38%)(P < 0.01)。在试验II中,84头母牛的处理方式与试验I中的E + P组相似。母牛在第0天接受100毫克孕酮和1毫克EB或5毫克17β - 雌二醇(E - 17β),并在第8天(取出CIDR - B装置后24小时)接受1毫克EB或1毫克E - 17β,采用2×2析因设计,并在30小时后进行授精。各组之间的发情率或受孕率没有差异。从取出CIDR - B装置到发情的平均间隔时间为44.2小时,s = 11.2。E - 17β/E - 17β组、E - 17β/EB组、EB/E - 17β组和EB/EB组的受孕率分别为67%、62%、52%和71%。在给予CIDR - B装置和雌二醇加孕酮的牛中,用EB或E - 17β处理可有效同步发情,并使定时人工授精的受孕率达到可接受水平。
