RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN BODY AND SCROTAL MEASUREMENTS, AND SEMEN CHARACTERISTICS IN YANKASA RAM

Abstract

El estudio se realizó para determinar las relaciones entre las medidas corporales, las características escrotales y seminales utilizando 62 carneros Yankasa en la Granja de Enseñanza e Investigación del Departamento de Ciencia Animal, Universidad Ahmadu Bello, Zaria, Nigeria. Las medidas corporales se relacionaron positivamente con las medidas testiculares (0.40-0.83). Las mediciones corporales (0.27-0.4 8) y testiculares (0.25-0.48) se relacionaron positivamente con las características del semen. Como resultado, la relación entre el pH del semen y la concentración de espermatozoides fue negativa (-0,29 a -0,38), con una dimensión t esticular (-0,30 a -0,38) y con las medidas corporales (-0,29 a -0,38). El estudio reveló que la fertilidad eficiente de los carneros Yankasa y la tasa de concepción posterior en las ovejas dependería de las interacciones de estas variables.

L'étude a été menée pour déterminer les relations entre les mesures corporelles, les caractéristiques scrotales et séminales en utilisant 62 béliers Yankasa à la ferme d'enseignement et de recherche du département des sciences animales de l'Université Ahmadu Bello, Zaria, Nigeria. Mesures corporelles liées positivement aux mesures testiculaires (0,40-0,83). Les mesures corporelles (0,27-0,48) et testiculaires (0,25-0,48) étaient positivement liées aux caractéristiques du sperme. Howeve r, the relationship between semen pH and sperm concentration was negative (-0.29 to -0.38), with t esticular dimension (-0.30 to -0.38) and with body measurements (-0.29 to -0.38). L'étude a révélé que la fertilité efficace des béliers Yankasa et le taux de conception ultérieur chez les brebis dépendraient des interactions de ces variables.

The study was conducted to determine the relationsh ips between body measurements, scrotal and seminal characteristics using 62 Yankasa rams at th e Teaching and Research Farm of the Department of Animal Science, Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Nigeria. Body measurements related positively with testicular measurements (0.40-0.83). Body (0.27-0.4 8) and testicular (0.25-0.48) measurements were positively related to semen characteristics. Howeve r, the relationship between semen pH and sperm concentration was negative (-0.29 to -0.38), with t esticular dimension (-0.30 to -0.38) and with body measurements (-0.29 to -0.38). The study revealed t hat efficient fertility of Yankasa rams and subsequent conception rate in ewes would depend on the interactions of these variables.

أجريت الدراسة لتحديد العلاقات بين قياسات الجسم والخصائص الصفنية والمنوية باستخدام 62 كبش يانكاسا في مزرعة التدريس والبحث التابعة لقسم علوم الحيوان، جامعة أحمدو بيلو، زاريا، نيجيريا. قياسات الجسم ذات الصلة الإيجابية بقياسات الخصية (0.40-0.83). كانت قياسات الجسم (0.27-0.4 8) والخصية (0.25-0.48) مرتبطة بشكل إيجابي بخصائص السائل المنوي. ومع ذلك، كانت العلاقة بين درجة حموضة السائل المنوي وتركيز الحيوانات المنوية سلبية (-0.29 إلى -0.38)، مع البعد الصدري (-0.30 إلى -0.38) وقياسات الجسم (-0.29 إلى -0.38). كشفت الدراسة أن الخصوبة الفعالة لكباش يانكاسا ومعدل الحمل اللاحق في النعاج سيعتمد على تفاعلات هذه المتغيرات.
