Heterozygous Inverdale ewes show increased ovulation rate sensitivity to pre-mating nutrition.

Reproduction, fertility, and development - 1 Jan 2011

Demmers K J, Smaill B, Davis G H, Dodds K G, Juengel J L

Abstract excerpt

This study aimed to determine whether ewes heterozygous (I+) for the Inverdale mutation of the bone morphogenetic protein-15 (BMP15) gene with high natural ovulation rate (OR) show similar sensitivity to nutritional manipulation as non-carriers (++). Increasing pre-mating nutrition results in OR increases in sheep, but whether this effect occurs in ewes with naturally high OR is unknown. Over 2 years, I+ or ++...
