Summary

TWO EXPERIMENTS WERE CONDUCTED WITH MATURE MERINO EWES TO INVESTIGATE THE EFFECTS OF TIME AND SITE OF INSEMINATION OF FRESH AND FROZEN-THAWED SEMEN ON THE FERTILITY OF SUPEROVULATED EWES. IN EXPERIMENT 1, EACH EWE WAS TREATED WITH AN INTRAVAGINAL PROGESTAGEN SPONGE AND PMSG (PREGRANT MARE SERUM GONADOTROPHIN) AND/OR FSH (FOLLICLE-STIMULATING HORMONE). THEY WERE INSEMINATED IN THE UTERUS WITH FRESH OR FROZEN-THAWED SEMEN (APPROXIMATELY 100 MILLIONS MOTILE SPERM) AT 24, 44 OR 64 H AFTER SPONGE WITHDRAWAL. IN EXPERIMENT 2, EWES WERE INSEMINATED WITH 100 MILLION MOTILE FRESH OR FROZEN-THAWED SEMEN IN THE UTERUS OR IN THE OVIDUCTS AT 64 H AFTER SPONGE WITHDRAWAL.
