Resumo: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of different progesterone concentrations (P4) on follicular dynamics in Holstein heifers (Bos taurus) subjected to synchronization of estrus and ovulation. The experiment was conducted at the Experimental Station of São Bento do Una/PE Agronomic Institute of Pernambuco / IPA, between September and December 2012. There were used 19 pubertal Holstein heifers presenting BSC between 3.0 and 3.5 and kept in intensive system. The heifers were divided into two groups, receiving an intravaginal devices at D0 containing 0.75 g of P4 in G1 (n = 10) and 1 g of P4, in G2 (n = 9) along with 2 mg BE im. At D7, there were applied 530μg of cloprostenol and 300 IU of eCG im, at D8 intravaginal devices were removed. At D9, heifers in both groups received 1mg of EB im and at D10 TAI were preceded. The ovarian activity was monitored at D0, D4, D8, D10 and at each 6 hours after TAI until ovulation. Pregnancy diagnosis were performed 30 days after TAI. The data were subjected to analysis of variance (ANOVA) and means were compared by the test of Turkey at 5% by the statistical program SPSS 16 for Windows. Binomial variables were analyzed by chi-square. No significant effect was observed between wave synchronization (100 vs. 100%), ovulation rate (70 vs. 89%), time of ovulation (60.5 ± 2.65 vs. 64.5 ± 0.33 h) and conception rate (40 vs. 44.4%) between G1 and G2, respectively. The dominant follicle average diameter at D9 between heifers that ovulated from G1 was 14,8±0,6 mm and in G2 11,2±1,6mm presenting no statistical difference (P=0.07) the same way was not also observed statistical difference between heifers that did not ovulate from G1 (9.6±0.7mm and in G2 (7.7±0.03)(P=0.42). .) Already when comparing the average diameters of dominant follicles in D9 between the heifers that ovulated (14.8 ± 0.6 mm) and those that did not ovulate (9.6 ± 0.7 mm) from G1, it was observed significant difference (P ˂ 0.05), as well as from G2 (11,2 ± 1.6 vs. 7.7 ± 0.03 mm). The ovulation rate increased significantly in the follicles larger than 11 mm, measured on D9 However, conception rates were higher when the follicles were larger than 8 mm on D9. In the present study, no significant effect was observed in DFØ, OFØ, time of ovulation, ovulation and conception rates in pubertal Holstein heifers, but animals receiving device with lower concentrations of P4 in D0 showed higher daily rate growth follicular.
