The beef industry in the state of Florida, United States, is similar to that of Brazil, in aspects such as using Bos indicus-influenced cattle, the hot and humid weather and the strong emphasis in reproductive efficiency. Such similarities are relevant to justify the visit of Dr. Mario Binelli, from the University of Florida, to serve as a visiting scholar at the University of Sao Paulo, …
New technologies that could reliably detect pregnancy status before day 21 after insemination would allow the opportunity to rebreed cattle at the next estrus event and to improve reproductive performance and profitability of dairy and beef operations. Thus, quantification of interferon-Ä stimulated genes (ISG) in peripheral blood leukocytes and Doppler ultrasonography of corpus luteum (C…
The overall objective presented in this proposal will be to evaluate the effects of anticipating the weaning (150 days vs. 240 days) of calves derived from beef cows on reproductive performance, and weaned calves and next progeny calves performance. A total of 200 pregnant cow-calf pairs (100 primiparous cows and 100 pluriparous) will be selected from the herd and allotted into two groups…
Dr. Akio Miyamoto's research group in Japan has several research areas in line with current lines of investigation developed in laboratories in the state of São Paulo and Brazil. Such common interest makes the visit of Dr. Akio Miyamoto from the Obihiro University of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine, to act as a visiting researcher at the University of São Paulo, Pirassununga campus, i…
Dr. Carl Dahlen, from North Dakota State University, will serve as a visiting researcher at the University of Sao Paulo, Pirassununga campus from April to August, 2023. Dr. Dahlen's research program has been geared toward enhancing reproductive efficiency in beef cattle, understanding the long-term impacts of maternal nutrition on offspring outcomes that may extend in multigenerational a…
The aim of this proposal is to develop an international research collaboration in the area of reproductive biotechnologies. A series of studies investigating the use novel techniques to diagnosis early pregnancy in cattle is the main research goal that will be explored within this proposed collaboration. The exchange activities will allow the interaction between the groups from University…

We aim to determine the expression profile of classic and non-classic ISGs (interferon stimulated genes) and understand the maternal response to the conceptus' signaling between 15 and 20 days of gestation, associated with early embryonic loss and pregnancy success in bovine females. To achieve this, 34 Nelore heifers will have their estrous cycle synchronized and will undergo a TE proced…
New technologies that could reliably detect pregnancy status before day 21 after insemination would allow the opportunity to rebreed cattle at the next estrus event and to improve reproductive performance and profitability of dairy and beef operations. The better understanding of the basic events involved in modulation of the immune system during early pregnancy is the first step for the …
The objective is to study the factors involved in gestational losses of precocious Nelore heifers and primiparous. In addition, injectable P4 (P4i) will be used in different strategies in order to mitigate pregnancy losses in both categories. In Exp. 1, carried out in the 2022/2023 breeding season, the effect of two ovulation induction protocols using P4i prior to the TAI protocol on preg…
The objective of this project is to evaluate the effects of early weaning (5 months) compared to conventional weaning (8 months) on fetal programming of characteristics associated with gonadal development of Nellore females. The main hypothesis to be tested is that heifers from cows that were weaned earlier have more antral follicle counts (AFC), serum concentrations of anti-Mullerian hor…

The pregnancy loss had a negative impact on milk industry. Using average fertility sires, around 60% of multiparous cows have a conceptus attaching to the uterus after 1st TAI. However, these cows have a 40% chance to undergo pregnancy loss. The impact of bull fertility on embryonic development have a limited knowledge. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of bull fe…
Gestational success in cattle depends on several factors, one of which is the diameter of the dominant follicle at the moment of fixed time-artificial insemination (FTAI), thus, the need for strategies to increase follicular diameter in bovine females is evident to increase the results, such as the use of eCG in protocols of TAI. However, in the United States this hormone is not commonly …
The animal protein production represents an important factor on food production. Thus, it is required that livestock herds have better indexes on efficiency production, which could be achieved by the use of technology and biotechnologies applied to genetic improvement, well-being, nutrition, health and reproduction, linked to the economic and environmental sustainability of the sector. Br…
The identification of pregnancy status earlier than the current methods performed around the 30th day after insemination allows a reduction in the interval of inseminations, which can result in a shorter conception period and greater profitability to the livestock production system. The central thesis of the project is that biomarkers in the blood stimulated by the concept are detectable …
