title: [Superovulation induction in sheep using PMSG].
abstract: The effects of application of differentiated PMSG rates (Antex Leo, Denmark) were investigated in 30 ewes of the Slovak Merino breed in the period of May--June in experimental conditions on the induction of superovulation and on the speed of egg transport through the sexual organs. After administration of PMSG at rates of 750, 1000 and 1500 i. u. per head/day, increases were recorded in the average weight of ovaries, number of large follicles and ovulations. Flushing the eggs from different parts of the sexual organs indicated that the higher the PMSG rate, the faster was the egg transport.
