Abstract
The hypothesis that CSF2 plays a role in the preimplantation development of the bovine embryo was tested by evaluating consequences of inactivation of CSF2RA (the functional receptor in the embryo) for development of embryos in utero. CRISPR/Cas9 was used to alter sequences on exon 5 and intron 5 of CSF2RA, Control embryos were injected with Cas9 mRNA only. Embryos > 16 cells at day 5 after insemination were transferred to synchronized recipient females in groups of 7 to 24. Embryos were flushed from the uterus two days later. The proportion of recovered embryos that developed to the blastocyst stage was lower for knockout embryos (39%) than for control embryos (63%). RNA sequencing of individual morulae and blastocysts indicated a total of 27 (morula) or 15 (blastocyst) differentially-expressed genes (false discovery rate <0.05). Gene set enrichment analysis indicated that the knockout affected genes playing roles in several functions including cell signaling and glycosylation. It was concluded that signaling through CSF2RA is not obligatory for development of the bovine preimplantation embryo to the blastocyst stage but that CSF2 signaling does enhance the likelihood that the embryo can become a blastocyst and result in specific changes in gene expression.

Abstract
To determine effects of dam parity on perinatal nutrient availability in beef cattle, data and samples were collected from 18 primiparous and 35 multiparous spring-calving Sim-Angus dams and their calves. Time to stand was recorded and neonatal vigor assessed. Jugular blood was collected from a subset of calves at 0 (post-standing and pre-suckling) 6, 12, 24, 48, and 72 h of age, and blood chemistry panels were completed. Expelled placentas were dissected, dried, and weighed. Prepartum maternal circulating glucose, non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA), triglycerides, and urea N were analyzed. All statistical models included the fixed effect of dam parity, and calf sex (when P ≤ 0.25) was included for calf and placental variables. Effects of sampling hour, and parity × hour were included for calf metabolites over time using repeated measures. Multiparous dams had greater body weight prepartum (P < 0.001) but similar (P = 0.25) body condition score. Maternal circulating urea N and triglycerides were greater (P ≤ 0.05) in multiparous dams pre-calving. Calves born to primiparous dams weighed 10% less (P ≤ 0.04) at birth with smaller (P ≤ 0.01) heart and abdominal girths. Cotyledonary, intercotyledonary, and total placental masses were less (P ≤ 0.05) for primiparous dams. Dam parity did not affect (P ≥ 0.58) calf time to stand, vigor score at 10 min, or rectal temperature. Serum glucose was greater (P = 0.03) at 0 h but less (P ≤ 0.04) at all other hours in calves from primiparous dams. Calves from primiparous dams had greater (P ≤ 0.02) serum NEFA at 6, 12, and 24 h although plasma triglycerides were greater (P < 0.001) at 6 h. Calves from primiparous dams had greater (P ≤ 0.04) serum urea N at 12 h and creatinine at 12 and 24 h. Plasma insulin was greater (P ≤ 0.04) in calves from multiparous dams at 12, 48, and 72 h, but parity did not affect (P ≥ 0.18) serum total protein or plasma cortisol. Serum aspartate aminotransferase was greater (P ≤ 0.04) at 6 and 24 h, creatine kinase was greater at 24 h, and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase was less (P ≤ 0.04) at 6, 12, and 24 h, for calves from primiparous dams. Calves born to primiparous dams had greater (P ≤ 0.02) total bilirubin and direct bilirubin at 12 and 24 h. Data indicate that calves born to first-parity heifers had decreased perinatal nutrient availability, resulting in reduced fetal and placental growth, as well as greater energy reserve mobilization and metabolic indicators of stress as neonates.

Abstract
Culture environment during in vitro embryo production can affect embryo phenotype and pregnancy outcomes, making culture modifications a logical approach for improving embryo competence. Previously, the addition of the growth factors FGF2, LIF, and IGF1, termed FLI, to the culture medium improved bovine embryo development, and re-expansion following cryopreservation. The objective of this study was to investigate the survival of cryopreserved FLI treated embryos at day 15 of pregnancy and evaluate conceptus transcriptomes. Embryos were produced using in vitro fertilization of abattoir-derived oocytes, cultured to the blastocyst stage in the presence or absence of FLI (+/- FLI), and cryopreserved by slow-rate freezing. Thawed embryos were transferred into non-lactating recipient beef cows and eight days later conceptuses were recovered and analyzed. For a subset of conceptuses whole transcriptome analysis was performed by using the NovaSeq 6000. There was no detectable difference in conceptus recovery or average conceptus length between the two groups. There were 32 differentially expressed transcripts, 23 up-regulated and nine down-regulated in the +FLI group compared to -FLI. Genes were involved in interferon signaling, prostaglandin synthesis, and placental development. This study reveals that embryos cultured with or without FLI and cryopreserved by slow-rate freezing have similar developmental competence up to day 15 of development. Nevertheless, differences in gene expression exhibit an effect of FLI on conceptus signaling during elongation.

Abstract
In vitro embryo production systems are limited by their inability to consistently produce embryos with the competency to develop to the blastocyst stage, survive cryopreservation, and establish a pregnancy. Previous work identified a combination of three cytokines [fibroblast growth factor 2 (FGF2), leukemia inhibitory factor (LIF), and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF1)], called FLI, that we hypothesize improve preimplantation development of bovine embryos in vitro. To test this hypothesis, FLI was supplemented into oocyte maturation or embryo culture medium. Embryos were produced in vitro using abattoir-derived oocytes and fertilized with sperm from a single bull known to have high fertility. After an 18-20 h fertilization period, putative zygotes were cultured in synthetic oviductal fluid (SOF) for 8 days. The addition of FLI to the oocyte maturation medium increased (P < 0.05) the dissociation of transzonal projections at 12, 18, and 24 h of maturation, as well as, the proportion of oocytes that reached the metaphase II stage of meiosis. Additionally, lipid content was decreased (P < 0.05) in the blastocyst stage embryo. The addition of FLI during the culture period increased development to the blastocyst stage, cytoskeleton integrity, and survival following slow freezing, as well as, decreased post thaw cell apoptosis (P < 0.05). In conclusion, the supplementation of these cytokines in vitro has the potential to alleviate some of the challenges associated with the cryo-survival of in vitro produced bovine embryos through improving embryo development and embryo quality.

Abstract
An experiment was designed to evaluate later timepoints for Split-Time AI (STAI), with the hypothesis that delaying AI may improve estrous response and pregnancy per AI when using sex-sorted semen. Timing of estrus was synchronized among 794 heifers using the 14-d CIDR®-PG protocol (1.38 g progesterone intravaginal insert from Day 0-14, followed by 25 mg dinoprost tromethamine on Day 30) with STAI performed based on estrous status. Heifers were blocked based on breed, source, sire, reproductive tract score (RTS), and BW and assigned within block to one of two approaches. In Approach 66, heifers that were estrual by 66 h after PG administration were inseminated at 66 h, and remaining heifers were inseminated 24 h later (90 h). In Approach 72, heifers that were estrual by 72 h were inseminated at 72 h, and remaining heifers were inseminated 24 h later (96 h). With both approaches, heifers that were non-estrual by the final timepoint were administered 100 μg gonadorelin acetate (GnRH). Within approach, heifers were pre-assigned to receive SexedULTRA 4M™ sex-sorted or conventional semen. The proportion of heifers estrual by the first timepoint was greater (P < 0.0001) with Approach 72 (76 %; 302/395) compared to Approach 66 (61 %; 242/399). The proportion of heifers pregnant as a result of AI differed (P = 0.0005) by semen type (59 % [240/404] for conventional compared with 48 % [187/390] for sex-sorted) but was not affected by approach or approach × semen type. In summary, pregnancy per AI of heifers receiving sex-sorted or conventional semen following the 14-d CIDR®-PG protocol did not differ when STAI was delayed 6 h. The proportion of estrual heifers prior to the first timepoint, however, was greater with later STAI.

Abstract
An experiment was designed to evaluate treatments to promote ovarian follicular maturity in advance of administration of exogenous gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH; 100 μg gonadorelin) for control of the bovine estrous cycle. We hypothesized prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α; 500 μg cloprostenol) followed by an intravaginal progesterone-releasing insert (CIDR; 1.38 g progesterone) would induce greater follicle size and serum estradiol at the time of GnRH administration. Postpartum cows (n = 194) in two locations were assigned to one of five treatments based on age, days postpartum, and body condition score. Cows in Treatment 1 were treated with the standard 7-d CO-Synch + CIDR protocol: administration of GnRH and CIDR insertion on Day -10, and administration of PGF2α and CIDR removal on Day -3. Treatments 2-5 were designed in a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement, with Treatment 1 included as an additional reference. On Day -17, cows in Treatments 2-5 received a CIDR insert, either with (Treatments 2 and 3) or without (Treatments 4 and 5) administration of PGF2α at CIDR insertion. On Day -10, all cows were administered GnRH, and CIDR inserts were either removed (Treatments 2 and 4) or remained in place until Day -3 (Treatments 3 and 5). Treatment with PGF2α and CIDR in advance of GnRH (Treatments 2 and 3) resulted in increased diameter of the largest ovarian follicle (P < 0.001) and increased serum concentrations of estradiol (P < 0.0005) on Day -10. In addition, variation among cows in CL status (no CL vs. a single CL vs. multiple CL) on Day -3 tended to be decreased (P = 0.08), with cows more likely to have a single CL rather than no CL or multiple CL. Lastly, the proportion of cows expressing estrus prior to fixed-time artificial insemination tended (P = 0.08) to be improved. Results support the hypothesis that administration of PGF2α and treatment with a CIDR for 7 days prior to GnRH promotes follicular maturity in advance of GnRH administration and may provide an approach by which to enhance response of postpartum beef cows to GnRH-based estrus synchronization programs.

Abstract
Abstract
Extension is a vital component of the Land Grant mission, facilitating transfer of knowledge and technology to end users. However, traditional Extension publications, particularly print, reach an ever-shrinking audience. With each new generational transfer of farm management, decision-makers in animal agriculture are less familiar with Extension as an authoritative source of information. As a consequence, producers may be more likely to receive misinformation from less reliable yet more readily accessible sources online, such as forums, blogs, or social media posts. In an attempt to address this challenge, we have explored use of program-specific Extension communications through social media platforms (YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter). We hypothesized that video content in particular would result in significant viewership due to organic sharing behavior. Accounts were created using Mizzou Repro as branding, with content specifically focused on University of Missouri Extension efforts related to reproductive management of beef cattle. Videos are approximately 2 min (range 1.8 to 2.7 min) and are designed to communicate a single concept thoroughly but concisely. Scripts are prepared in advance, but videos feature a rotating speaker, typically a faculty member, graduate student, or Extension field specialist. To retain viewer interest for the full duration, videos incorporate changing camera angles, live animals, and graphs or figures. Of the platforms evaluated, content published on Facebook generated the most engagement (views, comments, and other interaction). Specifically, videos published to Facebook generated the most engagements as compared to other types of content such as photos or written text. In addition, we observed willingness of viewers to subscribe to future account posts, as well as significant interest from allied industry in sharing content with their audiences. Together, these observations suggest that social media videos and program-specific branding are effective tools to communicate Extension messages and build a long-term audience in the digital age.

Abstract
Abstract
To determine parity effects on late gestational uteroplacental blood flow, uterine artery hemodynamics were measured in 13 primiparous and 11 multiparous (parity 3 and 4) non-lactating, fall-calving crossbred females beginning 109 d prepartum. Females were nutritionally managed as one group to meet or exceed nutrient requirements. Transrectal color Doppler ultrasonography of the both uterine arteries was conducted 3 to 6 times per female across late gestation, ending at approximately 20 d prepartum. Data were analyzed with parity (primiparous vs. multiparous), day prior to calving, and their interaction in the model; day was a repeated effect. Dam BW was greater (P < 0.001) for multiparous than primiparous females, and increased (P = 0.004) as gestation progressed. Calf birth weight was unaffected (P = 0.87) by parity. The parity x day interaction tended to affect (P = 0.06) ipsilateral uterine artery blood flow (L/min), where multiparous cows had a greater increase per day. Total and contralateral uterine artery blood flow were unaffected (P ≥ 0.11) by parity, but increased (P < 0.001) with day of gestation. When expressed relative to dam BW, total and contralateral blood flow were greater (P ≤ 0.04) in primiparous than multiparous females; ipsilateral blood flow was unaffected (P ≥ 0.13) by parity, however. Ipsilateral pulsatility index and both resistance indices were unaffected (P ≥ 0.28) by parity and day, but day tended to affect (P = 0.07) contralateral pulsatility index. Parity did not affect (P ≥ 0.11) cross-sectional area, mean velocity, peak systolic velocity, and end diastolic velocity of either uterine artery, but all increased (P < 0.001) as gestation progressed. Heart rate was greater (P = 0.03) in primiparous than multiparous females. Data suggest that uterine artery blood flow and heart rate may be altered in primiparous females, even when birth weight is unaffected by parity.
