Factors influencing boar sperm cryosurvival.
Optimal sperm cryopreservation is a prerequisite for the sustainable commercial application of frozen-thawed boar semen for AI. Three experiments were performed to identify factors influencing variability of postthaw sperm survival among 464 boar ejaculates. Sperm-rich ejaculate fractions were cryopre-served using a standard freezing-thawing procedure for 0.5-mL plastic straws and computer-cont...
متن کاملSperm competition games: sperm selection by females.
We analyse a co-evolutionary sexual conflict game, in which males compete for fertilizations (sperm competition) and females operate sperm selection against unfavourable ejaculates (cryptic female choice). For simplicity, each female mates with two males per reproductive event, and the competing ejaculates are of two types, favourable (having high viability or success) or unfavourable (where pr...
متن کاملPractical Applications of Sperm Selection Techniques as a Tool for Improving Reproductive Efficiency
Modern biotechnologies are used extensively in the animal breeding industry today. Therefore, it is essential that sperm handling procedures do not modulate the normal physiological mechanisms occurring in the female reproductive tract. In this paper, the different selection mechanisms occurring in vivo are described briefly, together with their relevance to artificial insemination, followed by...
متن کاملBoar Nutrition for Optimum Sperm Production
Natural service boars and boars who’s semen is collected for artificial insemination make up a relatively small portion of the pig population. This may partially explain the limited amount of data on the nutritional requirements and feeding practices of adult boars. Several research and literature reviews have been done, Kemp and den Hartog (1989), Colenbrander and Kemp (1990), Close and Robert...
متن کاملCytoplasmic droplets on boar sperm cells
any veterinarians and AI stud managers have inquired about the significance of cytoplasmic droplets on boar sperm cells. I currently advocate using ejaculates for artificial insemination (AI) which have fewer than 20% morphologically abnormal sperm, with no more than 15% attributable to cytoplasmic droplets. There is, however, little published research on cytoplasmic droplets and their effect o...
