Abstract
Cinqüenta e quatro marrãs cíclicas, uniformizadas quanto à linhagem, família, ganho de peso, espessura de toucinho, peso, precocidade sexual, número de cios e escore clínico, foram alocadas em dois grupos experimentais com dietas isocalóricas, isoprotéicas e isolisínicas. Duas fontes de energia foram testadas: amido de milho (T1) e óleo de soja (T2). Sincronizou-se o segundo estro com allyl-trenbolone, para inseminação no terceiro estro. Foi realizada cateterização não cirúrgica em 21 marrãs, submetidas a dois ciclos de coleta para dosagem de glicose e insulina, aos 14 e 21 dias do ciclo. Todas as marrãs foram abatidas aos 28,6 dias de gestação média, para análises biométricas do trato reprodutivo. Marrãs do T1 apresentaram maior taxa ovulatória em relação às do T2 (16,52 vs 14,70, P<0,01). Não houve diferença entre os tratamentos nas taxas de prenhez e sobrevivência embrionária. É possível alterar a eficiência reprodutiva por intermédio de manipulação dietética, mesmo em marrãs em estado anabólico. O uso do amido de milho na fase pré-cobertua melhorou a eficiência reprodutiva dos animais avaliados.
Fifty four cyclic gilts were randomly selected and uniformized according to genetic background, litter of origin, weight gain, backfat, number of cycles and clinical score. Gilts were alloted to one of two groups fed isocaloric, isoproteic and isolysinic diets. Two energy sources were tested: corn starch (T1) and soybean oil (T2). Second estrus was synchronized with oral allyl-trenbolone, so that insemination was carried out at third estrus. Indweeling catheters were implanted by non-surgical technic in 21 gilts, which were submitted to consecutive blood samplings for glicose and insulin determination. Timing of ovulation was estimated by means of ultrasonography. All gilts were slaughtered at an average gestation lenght of 28.6 days. Starch-fed gilts (T1) showed higher ovulation rates than T2 gilts (16.52 vs 14.70; P<0.01). There was no effect of treatments on pregnancy rate and embryo survival. Results indicate it is possible to manipulate reproductive efficiency through diet even in anabolic experimental models like cyclic gilts. Feeding starch as main energy source during pre-mating flushing phase improved reproductive efficiency of cyclic gilts.
