Abstract
The present study was aimed to evaluate the efficacy of estrus response in synchronized
does using intravaginal sponges containing 350 mg progesterone (AVIKESIL-S) in situ for
11 days, 125 μg Cloprostenol, on day 10 and PMSG at two does of 200 IU (Group I) or
400 IU (Group II) on day 11 at the time of sponge removal, in non-descript does under
field conditions. The percentage of estrous response and duration of estrus were observed
to be 70, 100 and 100; 40.93 ± 1.49, 42.20 ± 1.32 and 49.50 ± 0.94 in control, Group I and
Group II respectively. Pregnancy verification was done 40 to 45 days post mating by
ultrasound examination and the conception rate in control, Group I and Group II was
52.40, 63.33 and 66.67 respectively. Follicular study, pre and post treatment of PMSG in
the treatment groups indicated an increase in daily growth rate of follicles from 0.05 to
0.09 mm with the increase in dose of PMSG from 100 IU to 400 IU.
