  • Title: Embryo Transfer (Techniques, Donors, and Recipients).
    Author: Phillips PE, Jahnke MM.
    Journal: Vet Clin North Am Food Anim Pract; 2016 Jul; 32(2):365-85. PubMed ID: 27140299.
    Abstract:
    Commercial embryo transfer has evolved as an art and as a science since the early 1970s. Today's multiple ovulation embryo transfer is a widely used reproductive tool on many farms and is performed by veterinarians throughout the world. Propagation of the female genomes of select donors, through embryo transfer, has allowed a rapid progression of genetic gain in many breeds, much like what happened with artificial insemination since the 1940s. Advancement of this technology is migrating to in vitro fertilization technology today, allowing a higher volume of offspring to be produced with sex selection in the laboratory.
