Antiserum to LH reverses the abortifacient effect of Bromergocryptine treatment in early rat pregnancy

Reproductive characteristics of endophyte-infected or novel tall fescue fed ewes

A dual role of LH and prolactin has been suggested for CL maintenance both during the cycle and in early pregnancy (Tabarelli et al, 1982;Kann and Denamur, 1974).
