Article Synopsis
- This study looked at how certain health factors in cows affect the number of embryos they produce when they are given special treatments.
- Researchers used 18 cows and monitored different substances in their blood to see any patterns.
- They found that some levels in the blood were connected to how many embryos were made, meaning keeping cows healthy can really help with producing more embryos!
In this study, it was aimed to determine of the shelter conditions and welfare levels of Anatolian Black cattle grown in two different regions of Turkey. Accordingly, welfare assessment was made at the farm level according to the Animal Needs Index (ANI 35L/2000) method, a total of 76 in Ankara and Antalya provinces. The material of the research was composed of Anatolian Black cattle farms within the scope of the Project on Conservation of Domestic Genetic Resources.

For this purpose, it is suggested that donor selection can be done by anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH) levels, and embryo production is evaluated. AMH is secreted by the granulosa cells of primordial, pre-antral and antral follicles below 4 mm in the ovary, independent of FSH.
