Whole genome analysis reveals aneuploidies in early pregnancy loss in the horse (2020)
Journal Article
Shilton, C. A., Kahler, A., Davis, B. W., Crabtree, J. R., Crowhurst, J., McGladdery, A. J., …de Mestre, A. M. (2020). Whole genome analysis reveals aneuploidies in early pregnancy loss in the horse. Scientific Reports, 10(1), https://doi.org/10.1038/s41598-020-69967-z

The first 8 weeks of pregnancy is a critical time, with the majority of pregnancy losses occurring during this period. Abnormal chromosome number (aneuploidy) is a common finding in human miscarriage, yet is rarely reported in domestic animals. Equin...

Efficacy of ovulation synchronization with timed artificial insemination in treatment of follicular cysts in dairy cows (2020)
Journal Article
Abdalla, H., de Mestre, A. M., & Salem, S. E. (2020). Efficacy of ovulation synchronization with timed artificial insemination in treatment of follicular cysts in dairy cows. Theriogenology, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.theriogenology.2020.05.029

The efficacy of five ovulation-synchronization protocols with FTAI in treatment of cows diagnosed with follicular cysts was investigated in a nonrandomized study in a single herd. Cows identified with follicular structures >25 mm on two subsequent ul...
