For progesterone concentration determination and CL diameter there were excluded the animals which presented diestrus ovulations. The corpora lutea formed from single ovulations or double ovulations presented a mean diameter of 26.2 +/- 4.4 and 22.1 +/- 2.7 mm, respectively, which represented 66.1% and 64.1% of the preovulatory follicle diameter. The presence of two CLs from double ovulations was not reflected by a significant increase on progesterone concentrations.15-19porequidaeovarycorpos lucteumArtigoWOS:00020904910000300429054157111990000-0002-2245-800X
