Abstract :

In order to characterize fertility in equine breeds in Algeria, we have studied and compared two parameters; anatomical (follicular growth) and livestock (fertility) between the two main equine breeds Barbe and Arabian horses; they are raised in the same culture conditions at the Tiaret National Stud in season 2011. A sample of 13 and 37 mares Barbe breed and Arabian breed respectively whose average age is between 5 and 25 years followed by an ultrasound device. On the 5th day after foaling, all mares are passed to the system. We inspected both ovaries to see if there is a large follicle and check uterine involution. This allows us to decide or not to insemination of mares. Ultrasound results for mares Barbe and Arabian breed showed a fertility rate of 42.85% vs. 34.48% respectively. The subsequent average diameter of pre-ovulatory follicles is 41.82 vs. 45.48 mm influenced by a combinatorial effect of breed and age (P<0.001). Optimization of fertility postpartum cycles involves the mastery of the factors cited previously.
