DOI: 10.1016/j.theriogenology.2021.09.012
Abstract: Some bulls with apparently normal semen quality yield unacceptably low pregnancy rates. We hypothesised that a differential uterine immunological response to sperm from high and low fertility bulls may contribute to these differences. The experimental… read more here.
