Reproductive Physiology Faculty |
The long-term goals of laboratories in Reproductive
Physiology are to address problems affecting the
reproductive health of mares by gaining a clearer understanding
the biochemical processes controlling the estrous cycle,
the role excess fat deposits play in disruption of reproductive
activity, identifying factors associated with the maintenance
of pregnancy, and studying the effects that fescue contaminated
with ergot alkaloids can have on the unborn foal.
