Substitution of soyabean meal by faba bean improves body weight, sperm production and testosterone concentration in mature Queue Fine de l’Ouest rams
The current study aimed at investigating the effects of partial or total substitution of soybean meal with faba bean on reproductive parameters of Queue Fine de l’Ouest rams. Eighteen adult rams (49.8 ± 3.7 kg and 2.4 ± ...
Marker-assisted introgression of fecundity mutation into Barbarine sheep breed under low input production system
Fecundity gene introgression has become an economical method to improve sheep prolificacy in developing countries. The FecXBar and FecGH mutations are variants of the BMP15 and GDF9 sheep genes, respectively, identified ...
Feed supplementation improves estrus response and increases fertility of sheep induced to breed out of season
To test the efficacy on reproductive performance of nutritional supplementation in an out-of-season mating system, 66 adult prolific Barbarine ewes were selected and induced to breed using “ram effect”. The ewes were ...
