| dc.description.abstract | Equine embryo transfer is used globally to obtain an
increased number of high-quality foals from mares
without interfering with their competitive career.
However, there are various factors that can influence the
production of a healthy foal, the control of foaling after
embryo transfer will be explored throughout this review.
Those investigated throughout include the quality, size,
and day of recovery of the embryo, the donor mares age
and whether she is competing, and the parity and size of
the recipient. Intrauterine growth retardation and its effects
on the development of the foal are reviewed through
between breed transfers, such as thoroughbred in pony.
Deepening our understanding of such areas will ultimately
produce top foals. | en_US |
