5. Conclusions
Under the conditions of this experiment, it is concluded that
addition of FMO, as a source of n-3 PUFA in the diet during a short
period, did not modify the reproductive variables presentation of
estrus and pregnancy rate of virgin ewes, but delayed onset of
estrus and enhanced prolificacy. More research is required to explain
the variations in P4 and INS concentration and determine
their effects on ewe reproductive processes.
