Vogelsang, Martha M. (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1986)A series of experiments was conducted to develop a procedure for consistent, repeatable collection of oocytes from the pre-ovulatory follicle of the mare. Experiment 1 resulted in the collection of 26 oocytes from 30 equine ...

Volker, Ashley (2010-01-16)Two common nematodes that affect young horses are cyathostomes (small strongyles) and Parascaris equorum (ascarids). It has been recently found that populations of these nematodes are resistant to common anthelmintics used ...

Wagner, Elizabeth Lynn (2009-05-15)This study was undertaken to compare the absorption and retention of copper and zinc when supplemented to exercising horses in the form of sulfate or organic-chelate mineral supplements. Nine mature horses were used in a ...

Kriewald, Russell D. (2010-01-14)The objective of this study was to monitor the effects on physical and reproductive parameters in mares supplemented with Ractopamine HCl (RAC), in an effort to provide some insight concerning the use of RAC in horse diets. ...

Rosenberg, Jennifer L. (2012-10-19)Some stallions are expected to perform athletically and breed contemporarily. Athletic activity has the potential, especially during the summer months, to induce thermal stress to the testes, resulting in reduced reproductive ...
-
Scott, Brett David (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1992)Trial I. Twelve mature Thoroughbred horses were used to evaluate the efficacy of a fat-supplemented diet to maintain muscle glycogen stores and reduce thermal stress in exercising horses. In this study, exercising Thoroughbred ...

Murrell, Sandra Lee (Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)The horse industry relies heavily on the breeding manager's ability to get a large number of mares bred each season. Therefore, it is beneficial to optimize use of the stallion and number of cycles per conception, both ...

Chancellor, Tommy Neal (2009-05-15)The objective of this study was to more clearly define the relationship between body condition, plasma leptin and insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) in stallions and geldings in moderate (5.0-5.5) versus fleshy (7.0-7.5) ...

Commaille, Lynn Frances (2009-05-15)The objective of this study was to determine whether exercise-induced hyperthermia results in an increase in uterine temperature, as measured by an iButton temperature-measurement device inserted into the uterus, comparable ...
-
Morgan, Sommer Christine (2009-05-15)In cattle and sheep, a significant decrease in temperature has been noted prior to parturition. In the mare, similar temperature decreases have been documented, although results have been inconsistent when temperatures ...

Hoyt, Jill Kathleen Young (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1993)Copper balance was examined in Miniature Horses fed diets containing 12 ppm copper and 73, 170, 400 or 580 ppm zinc in a 4X4 Latin square experiment. Horses were placed in wood metabolism stalls during the last four d of ...

Cavinder, Clay Alan (2009-06-02)An increase in time to ovulation following parturition could result in economic loss if the mare cannot successfully conceive within a short time after foaling. To evaluate if a difference exists in reproductive efficiency ...

Mawyer, Jeannette Diane (2012-07-16)Studies performed on stallions have characterized detrimental effects on semen quality resulting from thermal stress by testicular insulation, but few have investigated the effects of exercise-induced increases in core ...
