An experiment was carried out to evaluate testicular and body growth, peripheral concentrations of testosterone (T) and carcass parameters, from 10 to 30 months of age, in Nelore bulls (n=27). Between 11 and 21 months, animals were treated with GnRH and blood samples taken 0, 1.5 and 3.0 hours afterwards. Animals were slaughtered at 30 months. Body weight (BW) varied from 195.2 ± 3.8 kg to 439.1 ± 8.1 kg between 10 and 30 months of age and the ratio […]

The objective of this work was to study the effects of the injection of 10 mg buserelin (GnRH) in the presence of an ovarian follicle with ³ 10 mm diameter associated to a dose of 500 mg of cloprostenol six days later, or with two doses of 500 mg of cloprostenol (PGF2a) at the 12th and 26th days postpartum about the follicular dynamic and the reestablishment of cyclic ovarian activity in crossbred Holstein-Zebu cows. Fifteen crossbred Holstein-Zebu cows were randomly […]
