This study aimed to characterize estrus response and to establish relationships between intensity of estrus, preovulatory follicle (POF) size and estradiol (E) concentrations on day of AI, luteal profiles and pregnancy outcome in lactating Hariana breed of cows. 200 cyclic cows were subjected to Ovsynch ( = 54) and Pre-OV treatment ( = 146). Ovsynch: Buserelin acetate (BA; 10 µg), Cloprostenol (500 µg) and BA (10 µg) were injected i.

A total 156 anestrus buffalo allocated (78 per group) to either 5d CIDR-Cosynch (d-5: CIDR + GnRH; d0: PGF+CIDR removal; 72 h post-CIDR removal: GnRH) or 5d CIDR-Heatsynch (d-5: CIDR + GnRH; d0: PGF+CIDR removal; 24 h post-CIDR removal: estradiol benzoate) group. All the buffaloes inseminated at 72 and 84 h post-CIDR removal.
