In experiment 2, artificial insemination was applied for evaluation of reproductive performance in experimental groups.Results: In experiment 1, the highest cervical dilation was observed in OT (90%) and E2+OT (100%) groups (P<0.05), while no significant differences was found among DIN, MIS, SEN and R groups (80%, 75%, 70% and 65%, respectively). In addition, the lowest cervical dilation was observed in control group. Experiment 2 found no significant differences among control, OT and E2+OT groups. The highest pregnancy rate, parturition rate and lambing rate were observed in OT groups (60%, 60% and 70%, respectively) and E2+OT groups (65%, 60% and 70%, respectively) compared to SEN, R, MIS and DIN groups (P<0.05).Conclusions:Oxytocin treatment alone or with estradiol could be used as a suitable dilator for improving reproductive efficiency during artificial insemination in fat-tailed ewes.展开更多

External fat-tail dimensions included upper, middle and lower width, length, length of gap, depth, upper and middle circumference recorded on 1,482 head of Lori-Bakhtiari lambs at 6 months. Of these about 311 lambs were slaughtered at the age of six months. Prediction equations were derived for fat-tail weight by multiple regression analyses with two methods. The results showed that the measure of middle circumference fat-tail was as most important measure in estimation of fat-tail weight. The measure of middle circumference fat-tail accounted for 76 percent of variation in fat-tail weight. The regression equations for predicting fat-tail weight using external fat-tail dimensions obtained from stepwise regression procedure can be estimated only with using from the lower width, length, middle circumference fat-tail and body weight with high acc, uracy （0.92）. Average of fat-tail weight estimated in the age of six months in lambs was 2.39 kg. The highest regression coefficient of external fat-tail dimensions on fat-tail weight observed for the length of fat-tail （0.095 kg）. Results of the present investigation showed that fat-tail weight in live sheep of Lori-Bakhtiari, could be estimated by measuring external fat-tail dimensions.展开更多

Combining the two models, the authors get a Levy process for the price fluctuation that can explain the fat-tail phenomenon in stock market.
