Abstract
The present study was carried out to evaluate the effect of embryo quality, and number of
embryos recovered per flush from donors on the pregnancy rates in dromedary camels.
Donors (n=51) were flushed at day 8-9 after breeding with 1000 ml commercial flushing
media prior transfer to synchronized recipients (n= 457) using transvaginal technique.
Pregnancy was diagnosed at Day 18-19, 30 and 60 post-transfer to recipients at rate of 55.1%,
47.9%and 43.4%, respectively. Transferring transparent embryos resulted in significantly
high pregnancy rates at Day 18-19 and 60 (P
