The effect of gonadotropin releasing hormone on superovulation in elite swamp buffalo cows (Bubalus bubalis).

The effect of gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) supplement was investigated in twenty eight FSH-treated buffalo cows. Animals were assigned to three groups; Group I: GnRH was given at standing heat (n=9), Group II: GnRH was given 8-12 hr after standing heat (n=8) and Group III: Control group with FSH alone (n=11). The responses (no.

The transfer of fresh and frozen embryos in an elite swamp buffalo herd.

To investigate the development of fresh and frozen swamp buffalo embryos after transfer to synchronized recipients, 14 fresh embryos and 28 frozen embryos, collected from Thai swamp buffalo cows of an elite herd at the Surin Breeding Center, were transferred nonsurgically to 31 synchronized recipients buffalo cows. One fresh embryo was transferred to each of 14 recipients. Twenty eight frozen embryos were transferred to 17 recipients of which 7 cows received I embryo, 9 cows received 2 embryos and 1 cow received 3 embryos.
