Abstract excerpt

Endocrine and developmental changes were examined in Booroola FecBB/FecBB (BB, n = 16) and FecB+/FecB+ (++, n = 20) ewe lambs, and BB (n = 17) and ++ (n = 19) ram lambs from 2 to 53 weeks of age. Blood samples were taken weekly for the measurement of plasma concentrations of FSH, LH, immunoreactive inhibin, progesterone (ewe lambs) and testosterone (ram lambs). Behavioural oestrus in the ewe lambs and testicular...
