Serum estradiol-17beta concentrations were determined during silent estrus in the mare. Relationships between serum estradiol-17beta concentration, corpus luteum regression, follicular development, ovulation, prostaglandin treatment and behavioral estrus were investigated. The expression of behavioral estrus was found to be related to the patterns of progesterone and estradiol-17beta secretion during the periovulatory period. When compared to normal estrous cycles, silent estrus was accompanied by a significantly lower maximum serum estradiol-17beta concentration (47.8 vs 34.6 pg/ml), a significantly longer interval from maximum estradiol-17beta concentration to ovulation (1.7 vs 4.0 days), and a significantly shorter interval from corpus luteum regression to ovulation (5.3 vs 2.8 days). Silent estrus following prostaglandin treatment was related to a significantly shorter interval from prostaglandin treatment to ovulation (3.6 +/- 0.4 days) than from normal corpus luteum regression to ovulation (5.3 +/- 0.3 days). Silent estrus appeared to be related to changes in follicular estradiol-17beta secretion and to the pattern of its secretion as related to regression of the corpus luteum. There appeared to be not only less estradiol-17beta present, but also less time available after luteal regression for it to interact with the central nervous system to elicit the changes necessary to cause behavioral estrus. There fore, unusual relationships between luteal function and folliculogenesis can result in one type of silent estrus. Significant correlations (P<0.05) were found between follicle size and serum estradiol-17beta concentration whenever behavioral estrus occurred [follicle diameter in mm = 0.96 (serum estradiol-17beta in pg/ml) + 6.08 and 0.73 (serum estradiol-17beta + 13.32 for control and normal estrus following prostaglandin treatment groups, respectively]. During silent estrus, however, no significant correlations between follicle size and serum estradiol-17beta concentration were observed.
