1.

It has been proved that the success rate of fertilisation is irhproved during the process of artificial insemination in animal husbandry programmes. How does this happen? Explain.

Answer»

The success rate of fertilisation  is improved  in animal husbandry programmes by the multiple ovulation embryo transfer (MOET) technology.

  1. A cow is administered with FSH for inducing the maturation of the follicles and super ovulation, i.e. production of 6-8 ova per cycle instead of one egg.
  2. An administered cow is then allowed to mate with the selected bull or is artificially iqseminated.
  3. The fertilised egg at 8-32 stages are recovered non-surgically and transferred to the  surrogate mother.
