Nutrition is one of the main factors that directly affect the productive and reproductive metabolism of animals. Among nutritional factors, protein is one of the most important elements. The objective of this study was to analyze the possible alterations in the reproductive system of rams mediated by the difference of proteins provided in the total diet. Four diets were established, with distinct protein levels: A- (control) 13,4% CP (Crude Protein); 210 g/day MP (Metabolized Protein); B- 11,4% CP and 187 g/day MP; C- 17,5% CP and 231 g /day MP; D-22,4% CP and 215,0 g/day MP. Data collections were performed in D0; D20; D40; D80; D120. During the experiment, animals were weighted and evaluated concerning body condition; semen collection and evaluation were carried out in computer system (CASA); ultrasound examination and testicular cytology; and hormonal count of testosterone, T3 e T4. The results obtained in this study showed that diet is A did not cause changes in the reproductive system of rams. Therefore, it was considered the most appropriate for rams in reproductive activity.
A nutrição é um dos principais fatores que afetam diretamente o metabolismo produtivo e reprodutivo dos animais. Dentre os fatores nutricionais a proteína é um dos elementos mais importantes. Este estudo objetivou a análise de possíveis alterações no sistema reprodutivo de carneiros mediadas pela diferença de proteínas fornecidas na dieta total. Foram instituídas quatro dietas com distintos níveis protéicos: A- (controle) 13,4% PB; 210 g/dia PM; B- 11,4% PB e 187 g/dia PM; C- 17,5% PB e 231 g /dia PM; D-22,4% PB e 215,0 g/dia PM. As coletas de dados foram realizadas em D0; D20; D40; D80; D120. Durante o experimento os animais foram pesados e avaliados quanto a condição corporal; foi feita coleta de sêmen e avaliação em sistema computadorizado (CASA), ultrassonografia e citologia testicular; e dosagem de testosterona, T3 e T4. Os dados obtidos neste estudo, mostraram que a dieta A, não provocou alterações no sistema reprodutivo, portanto foi considerada a mais indicada a carneiros em atividade reprodutiva.
