Effects of the Booroola Fec gene on ovarian follicular populations in superovulated Romanov ewes pretreated with a GnRH antagonist.

Journal of reproduction and fertility - 1 Jan 2000

Abstract excerpt

Endocrine control of follicular growth was studied in mature Romanov ewes carrying (RF+) or not carrying (R+2) the Booroola Fec gene during an oestrous cycle after gonadotrophin-dependent follicles were suppressed by treatment with an antagonist of GnRH (Antarelix, 0.5 mg per day) and superovulatory treatment was administered. The left ovary was removed after 10 days of treatment (saline or Antarelix) and the...
