Abstract
Of an estimated 27 ovulations from the nine yaks, only 16 embryos were recovered. Plasma progesterone profiles from individual yaks suggested that a poor superovulatory response in terms of embryo recovery in some animals was caused by the lysis of corpora lutea before flushing which was carried out 7 days after superovulatory oestrus. It was suggested that flushing 5 days post superovulatory oestrus could improve the superovulatory response in this species.
