Infertility and subfertility negatively impact the economics and reproductive performance of
cattle. Of note, significant pregnancy loss occurs in cattle during the first month of pregnancy …

Despite extensive research in the area of cow fertility, the extent to which the maternal
immune system is modulated during pregnancy in cattle remains unclear. Therefore, the …

This review integrates established and new information on the factors and pathways
regulating conceptus–endometrial interactions, conceptus elongation and establishment of …

Background In both beef and dairy cattle, the majority of early embryo loss occurs within the
first 14 days following insemination. During this time-period, embryos are completely …

Infertility and subfertility represent major problems in domestic animals and humans, and the
majority of embryonic loss occurs during the first month of gestation that involves pregnancy …

Uterine secretions, or histotroph, are a critical component for early embryo survival,
functioning as the sole supply of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and other myriad of nutrients …

This experiment evaluated the impacts of estrus expression and intensity, estimated by
physical activity during a timed-AI protocol, on reproductive performance of Bos indicus …

The majority of embryonic loss in cattle occurs before maternal recognition of pregnancy, at
around Day 16 postconception. The origin of the embryo can have a significant impact on …

Early embryo development, implantation and pregnancy involve a complex dialogue
between the embryo and mother. In cattle this dialogue starts as early as days 3–4 when the …
