the necessary number of sperm cells and achieving high reproductive performance. Some …

Artificial insemination (AI) is an important technique in all domestic species to ensure rapid
genetic progress. The use of AI has been reported in camelids although insemination trials …

AI is commercially applied worldwide to breed pigs, yielding fertility outcomes similar to
those of natural mating. However, it is not fully efficient, as only liquid-stored semen is used …
