The studies consider topics such as endocrine disruptors and their effects on reproductive function, bovine perinatal mortality, the female reproductive biology of caecilians, GnRH and other hypothalamic peptides, female sperm storage in vertebrates, assisted reproductive techniques in domestic animals, the reproduction of the Yangtze finless porpoise, and multiple ovulation and embryo transfer in dairy and beef cattle.
