Semen Production and Management of Rabbit Bucks
The aim of this review was to summarise recent knowledge of the physiology of semen production and management of rabbit bucks. As in other mammals, the spermatogenesis is affected by many environmental factors (temperature, light, age of animals, feeding strategies, health status) as well as by semen handling (dilution, temperature, and condition of storage). Optimal conditions of rearing rabbi...
متن کاملDL-Aspartic acid administration improves semen quality in rabbit bucks.
Recently, D-aspartic acid (d-Asp) has been suggested as being involved in mechanisms regulating reproduction activity in animals and human. In this study we analyzed the effects of DL-Asp oral administration on sperm production in the rabbit. Bucks from 60, bred in a genetic centre and used for semen production, were divided in 2 subgroups of 6 individuals. The treated group was fed with a conc...
