multi-fertility Why not "multi-fertility"? Just google it with "gene".

Multifetal gestation/pregnancy? A definition from an article published on Medscape:

The term multifetal gestation includes twins, triplets, and higher-order multiples. Multiple births are increasing in the United States and account for a large proportion of neonatal morbidity and mortality. In addition, these pregnancies often present a challenge in management for the obstetrician.

Does it fit the context?

Not the easiest one, I know:) any way thank you for you thoughts, I'll try to construe something out of it:)
Jennifer Lambert (X) Aug 14, 2015:
Can refer to humans, too. 'Multiple births' would make more sense if it was not related to genetics.

In a non-genetic context:

>>Šiuolaikinėje visuomenėje šeimų daugiavaisiškumas nebėra toks didelis.

"In today's society, multi-child families are no longer so large." (I know grammatically it's incorrect if translated one-to-one.)

Hard one to translate to say the least! I am glad I am not responsible for its translation. :-))
vaidas (asker) Aug 14, 2015:
I had very similar idea, just wondering could it be used speaking about people:) maybe it would be correct to translate this term simply as 'multiple births'?

High fertility rate? >>Veršingumo ir veršiavimosi trukmę įtakoja
genetiniai veiksniai (karvės veislė, daugiavaisiškumas)

Daugia > Multi + vaisiškumas > fruitiness = high fertility rate?

"Be fruitful and multiply" :-))
