Write a short note on Multiple Ovulation Embryo Transfer Technology.
उत्तर
Multiple Ovulation Embryo Transfer Technology (MOET) is a programme for herd improvement. Different steps in this method are :
(i) A cow is administered hormone (like FSH) to induce follicular maturation and super-ovulation, i.e., 6-8 eggs in one cycle.
(ii) The cow is either mated with the selected superior bull or artificially inseminated.
(iii) The fertilised eggs at 8-32 cell stages are recovered non-surgically and transferred to surrogate mothers.
(iv) Now, the genetic mother is available for another round of super-ovulation.
(v) This technology has been used for cattle, sheep, rabbits, buffalo, mare, etc.
(vi) High milk-yielding breeds of females and high-quality meat-lean meat, with little fat yielding bulls, have been bred successfully to obtain better breed and increase the herd size in a short time.
