Resumen
El objetivo del presente estudio fue evaluar la fertilidad obteni da en un hato, según dos tiempos de Inseminación Artificial
(IA) a tiempo fijo: 48 y 72 horas, posterior a un programa de
sincronización de celos, tomando en cuenta las manifestacio nes y la intensidad del estro. Se utilizaron 114 hembras Bos in dicus, sincronizadas con 2mg de benzoato de estradiol más un
implante intravaginal de progesterona (CIDR), que permaneció
in situ por 9 días. Al retiro del CIDR, los animales fueron dividi dos en 2 grupos: 61 y 53 hembras, que fueron inseminadas 48
horas y 72 horas postratamiento, respectivamente. Todas fue ron observadas continuamente durante 90 horas, con el fin de
detectar el comportamiento sexual y clasificarlas, de acuerdo a
la intensidad del celo, en dos categorías: alta y baja. Se utilizó
la prueba de Ji-cuadrado para la comparación de proporcio nes. El porcentaje de hembras con manifestación estral fue de
68,4%, sin diferencia entre las categorías alta y baja intensi dad (37,7 y 30,7%, respectivamente). El 85,4% de los anima les con signos de estro ovuló, diferente de las hembras sin
manifestación estral, con 63,8% (P<0,05). El porcentaje global
de preñez fue 25,4%; el 86,2% de estas gestaciones corres ponde al grupo de hembras que manifestaron conducta estral.
De acuerdo al momento de IA y la intensidad del estro, los
porcentajes de gestaciones para IA a 48 horas fueron 1) alta:
91,6%, 2) baja: 84,6% (P<0,05) y 3) sin celo: 25%, por su parte, en las hembras inseminadas a las 72 horas los porcentajes
fueron: 1) alta: 8,4%, 2) baja: 15,4% y 3) sin celo: 75%
(P<0,05). Se concluye que las hembras con expresión estral
tienen mayor oportunidad de preñarse tras la IA a 48 horas
postratamiento hormonal, mientras que en los animales sin
manifestación de estros, los mayores porcentajes de gestacio nes son a las 72 horas
The aim of this study was to evaluate the fertility obtained in a herd, according to two times of fixed time AI: 48 and 72 hours, following an estrus synchronization program, taking into con sideration the manifestations and the intensity of estrus. One hundred and fourteen Bos indicus females were used; syn chronized with 2mg of estradiol benzoate and a progesterone releasing intravaginal device (PRID), which remained in situ for 9 days. After the removal of the PRID, the animals were di vided into two groups: 61 and 53 females that were insemi nated, respectively, 48 and 72 hours posttreatment. All were continuously observed for 90 hours, with the objective of de tecting sexual behavior and classifying them according to heat intensity into two categories: high and low. Chi-square test was used for the comparison of proportions. The percentage of fe males with estrus manifestation was 68.4%, without difference between high and low intensity categories (37.7 and 30.7%, respectively). Of the animals with signs of estrus, 85.4% ovu lated; different from the females without estrus manifestation, with 63.8% (P<0.05). Global pregnancy rate was 25.4%; 86.2% of these gestations correspond to the group of females that manifested estral behavior. According to the moment of AI and the intensity of the estrus, the percentages of pregnancy for AI at 48 hours were 1) high: 91.6%, 2) low: 84.6% (P<0.05) and 3) without estrus: 25%, on the other hand, in females insemi nated at 72 hours, the percentages were: 1) high: 8.4%, 2) low: 15.4% and 3) without estrus: 75% (P<0.05). It is concluded that females with estral manifestation are more likely to get preg nant after AI at 48 hours following hormonal treatment, while for animals without estral manifestation, the higher pregnancy percentages are at 72 hours
