Introduction: Targeted single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) have been used in genomic prediction methodologies to enhance the accuracy of associated genetic transmitting abilities in Holstein cows. The objective of this study was to ident…

Endometrial inflammation is associated with reduced pregnancy per artificial insemination (AI) and increased pregnancy loss in cows. It was hypothesized that induced endometritis alters histotroph composition and induces inflammatory signat…

Pregnancy induces changes in the transcriptome of the bovine endometrium from 15 days after insemination. However, pregnancy is less likely to occur if cows had a postpartum bacterial infection of the uterus, even after the resolution of di…
