Figure 7

Effects of mare obesity and diet supplementation on oocyte metabolism. Basal metabolic function of oocytes obtained from preovulatory follicles of normal weight (NW, n = 6), obese (OB, n = 7) and obese diet supplemented (OBD, n = 6) mares: (a) basal aerobic metabolism, measured as oxygen consumption rate (OCR) and (b) basal anaerobic metabolism, measured as extracellular acidification rate (ECAR). Graphs represent mean ± SEM. Different superscripts indicate difference among groups using one-way ANOVA with post-hoc Tukey’s multiple comparison tests (P < 0.05).
