Relationships between hemoglobin genotype and production in cross-bred ewes. I. Reproduction and lamb production : II. Wool and milk production and health related traits

Creator:: Dally, Martin R.
Abstract:: I. REPRODUCTION AND LAMB PRODUCTION Relationships among hemoglobin (Hb) genotypes and reproduction and production traits were examined in 294 four- and five-year-old North Country Cheviot, Dorset, Finnsheep or Romney x Suffolk or Columbia-type crossbred ewes. Hb BB ewe lambs were youngest at first estrus and Hb AA ewe lambs were...

Perinatal mortality and preweaning growth of progeny of ewe lambs

Creator:: Gendron, Eric
Abstract:: Half Polypay ewe lambs were bred to Suffolk, North Country Cheviot and Hampshire rams to lamb at about one year of age. Type of birth-rearing significantly affected mortality by 70 days of age and all weights of lambs from birth to weaning. The mortality rate at 70 days of age...

Breed and heterosis effects on wool and lamb production of rotationally crossed ewes

Creator:: Gallivan, Catherine Agnes
Abstract:: One thousand twenty-three lambing records of 351 ewes bred in a rotational crossbreeding system involving Columbia or Targhee, Hampshire and Finnish Landrace breeds were examined. A regression approach was used to determine the effects of breeds and heterosis on wool grade, greasy fleece weight, ewe weight at lambing, lambing date,...

Flushing ewes on chemically cured hill pasture in western Oregon

Creator:: Tart, David Leon
Abstract:: A study was conducted during 1975 and 1976 to evaluate the use of chemically cured pasture as a flushing feed for ewes in western Oregon. In 1975 (0.56 kg/ha) and 1976 (0.28 kg/ha) paraquat was used to chemically cure hill pasture forage when perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) and tall...

In Vivo and In Vitro effects of a cyclopropenoid fatty acid on progesterone synthesis by the ovine corpus luteum

Creator:: Tumbelaka, Ligaya
Abstract:: Two experiments were conducted to examine the effect of a cyclopropenoid fatty acid on luteal cell function. In Exp. 1, 12 mature ewes were mated to a fertile ram, assigned to two groups (n = 6/group) and laparotomized on day 18 of gestation. Ewes with corpora lutea (CL) in both...

Effects of body condition and pre-lambing supplementation on ewe productivity

Creator:: Khan, Khalidullah
Abstract:: A series of trials was conducted with Polypay (P), Coopworth (CP), Hampshire (H), and crossbred ewes over a two year period at three locations to assess the effects of ewe body condition and pre-lambing supplementation on ewe productivity. Supplementation trials were conducted at all three locations in Year 1 using...

Effects of differential ewe body condition at mating and early post-mating nutrition on embryo survival

Creator:: West, Kathryn S.
Abstract:: Two trials were conducted over consecutive years to examine the effects of ewe body condition and post-mating nutrition on ovulation rates and embryo survival. Trial 1 used 146 Polypay ewes ranging in age from 5 to 8 years in a 3 x 2 factorial array of pre-mating (high-H, low flushed-LF...

Physiological factors affecting ovine uterine estrogen and progesterone receptor concentrations

Creator:: Prater, Patrice L.
Abstract:: Two experiments were conducted to determine whether in ewes uterine concentrations of estrogen and progesterone receptors are affected by the presence of a conceptus or by the hormonal milieu associated with extremes in photoperiod to which ewes are exposed. In Exp.1, nine mature ewes were unilaterally ovariectomized by removing an...

Fecal progestins in the early gestation ewe monitored by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry

Creator:: Miller, Charles W.
Abstract:: Previous work in this laboratory revealed that hormone analysis using fecal samples may predict the number of fetuses carried by pregnant ewes at mid- to late gestation. Reliable lambing number prediction is useful to the producer. Using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry the 5α- and 5β-series of pregnanes and selected 4- and...
