A water buffalo calf was successfully born via non-surgical embryo transfer. This study details methods for estrus synchronization, superovulation, and estrus detection in water buffalo.

Area of Science:

  • Reproductive biology
  • Embryo transfer technology
  • Water buffalo research

Background:

  • Water buffalo reproduction presents unique challenges.
  • Advancements in assisted reproductive technologies are crucial for improving water buffalo breeding efficiency.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To report the successful non-surgical embryo transfer of a water buffalo.
  • To describe the development of estrus synchronization, superovulation, and estrus detection protocols for water buffalo.

Main Methods:

  • Non-surgical collection of a 7-day water buffalo blastocyst.
  • Non-surgical transfer of the blastocyst to an unrelated recipient.
  • Development and application of estrus synchronization and superovulation techniques.
  • Estrus detection in recipient water buffalo.

Main Results:

  • A healthy, live 35-kg water buffalo bull calf was born after a 300-day gestation.
  • Successful implementation of non-surgical embryo transfer procedures.
  • Established protocols for estrus synchronization, superovulation, and estrus detection in the species.

Conclusions:

  • Non-surgical embryo transfer is a viable method for water buffalo reproduction.
  • The developed protocols can aid in enhancing water buffalo breeding programs.
  • This achievement contributes to the advancement of water buffalo assisted reproduction.
