Cluster analysis reveals seasonal variation of sperm subpopulations in extended boar semen
This study aimed to identify motile sperm subpopulations in extended boar semen and to observe the presumptive seasonal variation in their distribution. Data from 4837 boar ejaculates collected over a two-year period were analyzed in terms of kinematic parameters by Computer Assisted Sperm Analysis (CASA). Individual sperm data were used to determine subgroups of motile sperm within the ejacula...
متن کاملBoar management and semen handling factors affect the quality of boar extended semen
Artificial insemination (AI) is the preferred method for reproduction in the majority of the intensive pig production systems Worldwide. To this end, fresh extended ready-to-use semen doses are either purchased from AI-centres or produced by boars kept on-farm. For profitable semen production, it is necessary to obtain a maximum amount of high quality semen from each boar. This paper reviews cu...
متن کاملSperm transcriptome profiling for assessment of boar semen freezability
In this project transcriptome analysis on highthroughput RNA-sequencing (RNA-Seq) data of boar spermatozoa will be utilized to identify novel genetic markers associated with semen freezability. Three boars each with poor and good semen freezability will be subjected to transcriptome studies on sperm RNA-seq data, and in combination with bioinformatics screening, will select candidate genes asso...
متن کاملMorphologically distinct sperm subpopulations defined by Fourier shape descriptors in fresh ejaculates correlate with variation in boar semen quality following cryopreservation.
This study investigated two hypotheses: 1) that consistent between-boar variation in frozen semen quality exists and is genetically determined, and 2) that morphologically distinct subpopulations of spermatozoa exist within fresh boar ejaculates and that the incidence of these subpopulations is correlated with semen quality following cryopreservation. Five ejaculates were collected from each of...
