[Objective] It was to explore the effects of different seasons (months), on the transplantation of frozen-thawed embryos of Simmental cattle in Gansu province. [Method] Analysis of 143 freeze-thaw embryos transferred in Zhangye and Dingxi from October 2015 to August 2017, including 36, 58, 45 and 4 embryos respectively in spring, summer, autumn and winter. [Result] The results showed that pregnancy rate in spring, summer, autumn and winter respectively was 61.11%(22/36), 72.41%(42/58), 80.00%(36/45), 25.00%(1/4); that abortion rate of cattle in spring, summer, autumn and winter respectively was 31.82%(7/22), 23.81%(10/42), 30.55%(11/36), 100%(1/1). Differences among groups were extremely significant by Chi-square testing (P< 0.01). Rate of pregnancy of the second ten-day period of July, September, October are all over 80%; that of April and the third ten-day period of July was about 60%; that of January was only 25% (1/4). [Conclusion]Autumn was better season for transplantation of frozen embryos in Gansu province. |
