Abstract Four parameters were examined in order to define sperm quality in turbot Scophthalmus maximus L., sperm: (1) sperm motility, measured by direct counts of the number of active spermatozoa, expressed as % of total spermatozoa; (2) retention of motility after activation, measured by direct counts, 0–60min after activation, expressed as a % of the initial level of activity; (3) resistance to thermal stress, measured as change in retention of motility, and (4) adenosine phosphate (ATP) concentration, determined for samples of non-activated sperm. The proportion of motile spermatozoa at activation ranged from 34·8% to 97·6% (mean 76·3%) for the individual males tested. Turbot sperm retained on average 52% (range 27–90%) of its initial activity one hour after activation. Sperm samples which were stressed by cooling to –27°C retained only 8·6% (range 0–25%) of initial activity, compared to control samples which retained 49% (range 38–63%) of initial activity. The retention of motility after activation was not significantly related to the initial motility or the levels of ATP. Concentrations of ATP in turbot sperm (mean 0·46mg ATP/106 spermatozoa, equivalent to 9·2nmol ATP/108 spermatozoa) were comparable to those measured in mammals.  相似文献

The post-thaw motility and fertility of Japanese pearl oyster sperm show large variances, even among sperm samples obtained from the same individuals. This study aimed to clarify the factors that cause such differences. Spermatozoa were diluted 50 times with diluent comprising 10 % methanol, 18 % fetal bovine serum, and 72 % seawater, and dispensed into 0.25 ml straws. A total of 59 straws were cooled, one by one, at 11 different heights from the surface of liquid nitrogen (LN) to −50 °C, and then immediately immersed in LN. After thawing the straws, the relationships between the cooling rate and the post-thaw motility and post-thaw fertility of the spermatozoa were examined. Both the post-thaw motility and the post-thaw fertility showed a sharp peak when the straws were cooled at around −20 °C/min. There was a strong correlation between post-thaw motility and fertility (P < 0.001). There was a large difference in the cooling rates and the post-thaw motilities and fertilities of the spermatozoa, even between straws cooled at the same height. These results indicate that the optimum range for the cooling rate of oyster spermatozoa is quite narrow, and the method of cooling straws at a fixed distance from the LN surface is unsuitable for the cryopreservation of Japanese pearl oyster spermatozoa.  相似文献

Spermatozoa concentration, ionic composition, osmolality, glucose and total protein contents of seminal plasma and sperm motility were determined in Barbus sharpeyi (Cyprinidae, Teleosotei). Spermatozoa concentration ranged from 9.77 to 20.20 × 109 spermatozoa mL?1. Osmolality (mOsmol kg?1) and ionic contents (mM L?1) of the seminal plasma were 274.5±9.0, 70.0±3.4 Na+, 28.8±0.9 K+, 101.7±3.1 Cl?, 0.9±0.1 Mg2+ and 2.1±0.1 Ca2+ respectively. Total protein and glucose were 5.3±0.2 g L?1 and 76.7±4.3 mM L?1 respectively. Sperm motility was initiated in a hypo‐osmotic condition, composed of either an ionic (KCl or NaCl) or a non‐ionic (sucrose) activation medium. Duration of sperm motility was very short: <2 min after activation in distilled water. Percentage of motile spermatozoa was significantly higher in an activation medium containing NaCl compared with that of distilled water. An activating medium containing NaCl or KCl higher than 150 mM or sucrose higher than 275 mM totally inhibited the activation of sperm motility. Immediately after sperm activation, wave(s) propagated along the flagellum, but waves were restricted to the proximal part of the flagellum (close to the head) at 1 min post activation. Studied characteristics in the present study were compared with those of other cyprinids for understanding inter‐species differences.  相似文献

Large yellow croaker, Pseudosciaena crocea, exhibit sexually dimorphic growth, with females growing faster and reaching larger adult sizes than males. Thus, development of techniques for preferentially producing females is necessary to optimize production of these species. We have established a protocol to produce all-female croaker P. crocea through induction of meiotic gynogenesis with homologous sperm. The first set of experiments investigated the ultra-violet (UV) irradiation on sperm motility and duration of sperm activity to determine the optimal UV dosage for genetic inactivation of sperm, yet retaining adequate motility for activation of eggs. Milt from several males was diluted 1:100 with Ringer’s solution and UV irradiated with doses ranging from 0–150 J cm−2. The results indicated that motility and duration of activity generally decreased with increased UV doses. At UV doses greater than 105 J cm−2, after fertilization, motility was <10% and fertilization rates were significantly lower. Highest hatching rate was obtained at 75 J cm−2. A second set of experiments was carried out to determine appropriate conditions of cold shock for retention of the 2nd polar body in P. crocea eggs after fertilization with UV-inactivated sperm by altering the timing, temperature and duration of shock. At 20°C, shock applied at 3 min after fertilization resulted in higher survival rate of larvae at 6 h after hatching. Results of different combinations of three shock temperatures (2°C, 3°C or 4°C) and five shock durations (4 min, 8 min, 12 min, 16 min or 20 min) at 3 min after fertilization demonstrated that shocks of 12 min gave highest production of diploid gynogens. Statistical analysis revealed that maximum production of diploid gynogens (44.55 ± 2.99%) were obtained at 3°C. The results of this study indicate that the use of UV-irradiated homologous sperm for activation of P. crocea eggs and cold shock for polar body retention is an effective method for producing gynogenetic offspring.  相似文献

The exposure of freshly spawned, immotile carp sperm to hypoosmotic media triggers the initiation of calcium-dependent flagellar motility. Intracellular calcium concentration has been thought to be the critical component in motility initiation, possibly acting through a novel signalling pathway. The sensitivity of sperm cells to changes of osmolality of the environment raises the question whether a mechanoregulated osmosensitive calcium pathway is involved in the activation mechanism of carp sperm motility. The sperm cells are in a depolarized state in the seminal plasma (Ψ = –2.6 ± 3 mV) and they hyperpolarize upon hypoosmosis-induced activation of motility (Ψ = –29 ± 4 mV). The intracellular sodium [Na+]i, potassium [K+]i and calcium [Ca2+]i ion concentrations were determined in quiescent cells, and at 20, 60 and 300 s after activation. The [Na+]i and [K+]i of the quiescent cells were similar to the [Na+]e and [K+]e of the seminal plasma. Following hypoosmotic shock-induced motility, both [Na+]i and [K+]i decreased to one-fourth of the initial concentration. The [Ca2+]i doubled at initiation of the motility of the sperm cells and remained unchanged for 5 min. Bepridil (50–250 μM), a blocker of the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger, blocked carp sperm motility reversibly. Gadolinium, a blocker of stretch-activated channels (10–20 μM), inhibited sperm motility in a dose-dependent manner and its effect was reversible. Hypoosmotic shock fluidized the membrane and gadolinium treatment made it more rigid in both quiescent cells and hypotonic shock treated but immotile sperm cells. Based on these observations, it is suggested that, besides the well-known function of potassium and calcium channels, stretch-induced conformational changes of membrane proteins are also involved in the sperm activation mechanism of common carp.  相似文献

In spite of the fact that egg yolk from different avian species has successfully been used as an additive for the cryopreservation of sperm in mammalian species, its efficacy for cryopreserving fish sperm has not previously been tested comparatively. Therefore, the present study was carried out to determine the effect of egg yolks from different avian species, namely domestic chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus), turkey (Meleagris gallopavo) and quail (Coturnix coturnix), on post-thaw motility and fertilization ability of cryopreserved common carp spermatozoa. Egg yolks from chicken, turkey and quail were analysed for moisture, total fat, protein, cholesterol and phospholipid profile. Total fat and cholesterol contents of the turkey egg yolk were higher than chicken and quail egg yolks (p < 0.05). Semen was frozen according to conventional slow freezing procedure. The extender contained 350 mM glucose, 30 mM Tris and 5 % glycerol supplemented with different ratios of avian egg yolk (10, 15 and 20 %). Semen was equilibrated at 4 °C for 15 min and placed into 0.25-ml straws and frozen in liquid nitrogen vapour (for 10 min at ?120 °C) and finally stored in liquid nitrogen (?196 °C) tank. The frozen spermatozoa were thawed in a water bath at 35 °C for 30 s. Fertilization was conducted using a ratio of 1 × 105 spermatozoa/egg. Cryopreservation experiments resulted in higher post-thaw motility and fertilization rates. Mean post-thaw motility of cryopreserved spermatozoa was between 45 and 80 %, and fertilization rates, expressed as the percentage of eyed embryos, ranged from 70 to 95 %. In conclusion, the present study showed that turkey and quail egg yolks are suitable alternatives to the chicken egg yolk for the cryopreservation of common carp spermatozoa.  相似文献

Spermatological research of the Patagonian blennie was carried, specifically biometric parameters, sperm density, sperm count and motility in different activation mediums (815, 716, 590 and 0 mOSm kg?1), at different temperatures (5, 10 and 15°C) and pH levels (5, 7 and 9). The results indicate that Patagonian blennie spermatozoa have a primitive form, with a total length of 44.09 ± 3.36 μm, with a head length of 2.15 ± 0.28 μm and head width of 2.5 ± 0.31 μm. The mid‐piece had a length of 0.72 ± 0.12 μm, and its tail measures 41.21 ± 3.21 μm long. The motility pattern indicates that the spermatozoa are found immobile in the seminal plasma and only initiates its movement in a hypertonic medium from 590 to 815 mOsm kg?1. The longest motility time that was registered at 10°C in 716 mOSm kg?1 was of 245 ± 39 s and an optimum pH of 7 was observed.  相似文献

The effects of different concentrations of cryoprotectant (dimethyl sulfoxide; DMSO), cooling rate and straw size on the post-thaw motility of frozen sperm from spotted wolffish, Anarhichas minor, were studied. There was no significant difference in the post-thaw motility of sperm treated with three different concentrations of DMSO (10, 20 and 30%). Similarly, there was no significant difference in the post-thaw motility of spermatozoa when using different freezing rates (i.e. distance of straws from the surface of liquid N2, 4.7, 5.5 and 7.1°C min−1) and the straw size (0.5 and 1.0 ml) did not affect survival. The cryopreservation of sperm can be used to make up for the frequent lack of sperm and/or the unsynchronised timing of sperm production in spotted wolffish males and the ovulation time in females. The results show that sperm from spotted wolffish can be frozen to secure access to viable sperm, but further experiments are needed in order to reveal the effect of different parameters on the post-thawing mortality and define the optimum conditions for cryopreservation.  相似文献

The aims of this study were to describe the fresh spermatozoon ultrastructure using scanning and transmission electron microscopy and to improve the sperm cryopreservation methodology for the freshwater fish pirapitinga Brycon nattereri. Extenders (BTS? and NaCl), straw volumes (0.5 and 4.0 mL), thawing temperatures (30 and 60 °C) and activating agents (0.29% NaCl and 1% NaHCO3) were tested. Methylglycol was used as a cryoprotectant agent and sperm was frozen in nitrogen vapour (dry‐shipper). Post‐thawed sperm motility rate, motility quality (score 0=no movement; 5=rapidly swimming spermatozoa), duration of motility and spermatozoon morphology were evaluated. Fresh spermatozoon was 35.06 μm long, the head was ovoid (2.00 × 1.22 μm) with no acrosome, the midpiece was 2.15 μm long and the flagellum was 30.90 μm long with the typical 9+2 axoneme arrangement. Post‐thawed sperm motility rate (70–79% motile sperm), motility quality (score 3.1–3.7) and morphology (9.3–11.6% abnormal spermatozoa) were not affected by any of the parameters tested. The duration of sperm motility was longer when triggered in 1% NaHCO3 (392–1031 s) compared with 0.29% NaCl (144–338 s). Brycon nattereri sperm cryopreserved under the conditions described above yields over 70% motility and should last long enough to fertilize oocytes, even after 2 years of freezing.  相似文献

The aim of this study was to test the effects of cryoprotectants [dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) and methylglycol], extenders (0.9% NaCl, 5% glucose, Beltsville Thawing Solution? and Merck III?), thawing temperatures (30 and 60 °C) and activating agents (0.29% NaCl and 1% NaHCO3) on the cryopreservation process of tiete tetra Brycon insignis sperm. Sperm was loaded in 0.5 mL straws, frozen in nitrogen vapour at ?170 °C and stored in liquid nitrogen. Post‐thaw sperm quality was evaluated in terms of subjective motility rate, quality motility score (0=no movement; 5=rapidly swimming spermatozoa), duration of motility and vitality (eosin–nigrosin staining). Post‐thaw sperm motility rate was greater in methylglycol (76–88%), compared with DMSO (23–59%). In general, the highest quality motility scores were observed when sperm was thawed at 30 °C and triggered in 1% NaHCO3 (3.5–4.3). Duration of motility was longer when triggered in 1% NaHCO3 (95–120 s) compared with 0.29% NaCl (69–107 s). Sperm vitality was not affected by any of the parameters tested and varied from 51% to 69% intact sperm. Brycon insignis sperm frozen in methylglycol combined with any of the extenders tested and using the methods described above yields motility above 57% and that should last long enough to fertilize oocytes.  相似文献

In this study, the efficiency of a novel droplet vitrification technique along with different doses of fish antifreeze protein (AFP) type III on Persian sturgeon thawed spermatozoa quality (motility duration and motility percentage) was investigated. Semen of seven male individuals was pooled in equal volumes and diluted with 4°C Tris‐Hcl (100 mM), pH = 8 extenders containing 0, 5, 10, 15 μM of AFP type III in a ratio of 1:1 (semen/extenders). Treated semen was dropped into liquid nitrogen. Solidified droplets were stored for 2, 60 and 120 days and thawed by plunging them into a tube containing 5 mL Tris‐Hcl (100 mM), pH=8 with 1% BSA at 37°C. Motility duration in all treatments had no significant difference comparing to fresh sperm (P > 0.05), but their motility percentage was significantly lower. Treatment with 10 μM of AFP had significantly higher motility percentage (16.11 ± 0.5%) comparing to other treatments (P < 0.05). There was no significant difference between 0, 5, 15 μM of antifreeze protein treatments (P > 0.05), suggesting that antifreeze protein effectiveness are highly dose dependent, and dose of 10 μM is appropriate in Persian sturgeon spermatozoa droplet vitrification. Besides, the present technique obtained higher quality of spermatozoa comparing to its analogue techniques.  相似文献

Understanding the effects of environmental factors in sperm qualities will be helpful in the development of optimal artificial reproduction methods and contributes towards the knowledge base of better short‐ and long‐term fish semen preservation conditions The objectives of this study were to determine properties and activities of wild‐caught striped jewfish Stereolepis doederleini sperm contaminated with blood or seawater and compare them with data reported in the literature on other freshwater and marine fish species, for effective short‐ and long‐term storage of fish semen. Overall, we observed that the sodium, chloride, glucose, total protein concentrations of normal sperm were not significantly different from blood‐ or seawater‐contaminated sperm. The salinity and osmolality concentration of sperm contaminated with blood were lower than sperm contaminated with seawater and were not significantly different from normal sperm. In addition, the spermatozoa motility (SM) and duration of spermatozoa motility (DSM) in blood‐contaminated sperm were higher than seawater‐contaminated sperm and also not significantly different from normal sperm. The best condition for SM and DSM in normal sperm was dilution rate of 1:50. Sperm was immotile in distilled water, and cationic factors were shown to stimulate the initiation of spermatozoa activation. The maximum SM and DSM were observed in solution containing 0.4 M NaCl, 0.6 M KCl, 0.6 M CaCl2 and 0.4 M MgCl2. This study provides some basic and important knowledge about striped jewfish sperm sensitivity to a cationic condition. In this regard, Na+ is the major inhibitory factor of spermatozoa motility in this fish species.  相似文献

A sperm cryopreservation protocol adapted from turbot, was tested on sea bass using either 250-μL straws or 1.5-mL cryovials. A dilution to 1/3 in Mounib s extender and a cooling rate of −65 °C·min−1 allowed frozen sperm to recover an initial motility similar to that of fresh sperm at thawing; however, significant differences in motility (P < 0.001, n = 10 fish semen) were observed at further post-activation times, the motility decrease being faster in thawed sperm. At the experimental scale, triplicate inseminations of 2-mL aliquots (approximately 2 000 eggs) showed a significant fertility decay of thawed sperm compared to that of fresh sperm (P < 0.01, n = 12 fish semen) when a discriminating 35·103 spermatozoa to egg ratio was applied. When 70·103 and 200·103 spermatozoa per egg were provided in the same experimental conditions, no significant difference appeared between the fertilisation rates of fresh and thawed sperm. In order to validate the procedure for production or cryobank purpose, a scaled-up protocol was established. Two and 50 mL batches of eggs (approximately 2·103 and 50·103 eggs, respectively) were inseminated in triplicate using either fresh or thawed individual sperms of 5 males with 200·103 spermatozoa per egg. The mean fertility decreased by 23.5 % due to cryopreservation. This decline was explained by the loss of fertility of only one sperm, and only in large-volume conditions, probably due to the delay of use after thawing.  相似文献

Turbot Scophthalmus maximus exhibits sexually dimorphic growth, with females growing faster and reaching larger adult sizes than males. Thus, development of techniques for preferentially producing females is necessary to optimize production of these species. In this paper, gynogenetic diploids of turbot were induced by activating egg development with ultraviolet (UV)-irradiated left-eyed flounder Paralichthys olivaceus sperm combined with cold shock to prevent extrusion of the second polar body. The results of UV irradiation experiments showed that survival, motility, and duration of activity of P. olivaceus sperm generally decreased with increase in UV dose. The typical Hertwig’s effect was observed after fertilized turbot eggs with UV-irradiated P. olivaceus sperm and the optimal UV dose for gynogenetic haploid production was 36,000 erg mm−2. At 15°C, appropriate timing of cold shock for retention of the second polar body in turbot eggs was at 6 min after fertilization. Results of different combinations of two shock temperatures (1 or 3°C) and four shock durations (15, 25, 35 or 45 min) at 6 min after fertilization demonstrated that shock of 25 min at 1°C gave the highest production of diploid gynogens (39.58% relative to its diploid control). The results of this study reveal that the use of UV-irradiated P. olivaceus sperm for activation of turbot eggs and cold shock for polar body retention is an effective method to produce gynogenetic offspring.  相似文献

In this study, cryopreservation feasibility of Persian sturgeon (Acipenser persicus) and the effect of different doses of 2‐hydroxypropyl‐beta‐cyclodextrin on thawed spermatozoa quality (motility duration and motility percentage) were investigated. For freezing, semen of seven male individuals was pooled in equal volumes and diluted with 4°C [Tris‐HCl (100 mM), pH = 8, DMSO 10%] extenders containing 0, 5, 10, 15 mM of HβCD in a ratio of 1:1(semen/extenders). Then semen was filled into 0.5‐mL straws, and was frozen with vapour of liquid nitrogen at 4‐cm above surface of liquid nitrogen. After 3 min, straws were plunged in to liquid nitrogen. Thawing was performed at 40°C water baths for 15 s. Motility duration of the 10 mM HβCD treated spermatozoa at days 14 (228.98 ± 16.39) and 56 (199.66 ±21.78) were longer than other treatments. In day 56, the motility percentage in treatment with 10 mM was significantly higher (16.14 ± 2.54) (P < 0.05) compared with 5 mM treatment (8.75 ± 2.47) (P < 0.05). Therefore, it is recommended that 10 mM of HβCD can be used as an additive cryoprotectant for increasing cryopreserved spermatozoa quality in this species.  相似文献

This study investigated the effect of 0.25–5 mM K+, Ca2+, and Mg2+ on sperm motility in the perch, Perca fluviatilis. In 75 mM NaCl, the used motility-activating solution, motility rate, and swimming velocity decreased within the first 4 min after activation, and the rate of locally motile sperm increased. Thereafter, the motility parameters remained constant for periods >20 min. Based on the decrease in sperm motility, two types of semen samples could be distinguished. Semen samples of type I retained a high motility rate of >65 % after 20 min, and the rate of locally motile sperm was <20 %. In semen samples of type II, the motility rate decreased to values <30 % after 20 min, and the rate of locally motile sperm exceeded >50 %. Ca2+ and Mg2+ concentrations of 0.25–0.5 mM had no effect on the sperm motility parameters 10 s after activation, while 0.25 mM K+ increased the swimming velocity. K+, Ca2+, and Mg2+ concentrations ≥1.5 mM had suppressive effects on the sperm motility 10 s after activation. No differences were found between the two semen types. Twenty minutes after activation, type I semen was not affected by the tested cations. On the contrary, 0.25–2.5 mM K+, 0.25 mM Mg2+, and 0.25–2.5 mM Ca2+ significantly increased the sperm motility rate and/or sperm velocity of type II semen. Therefore, supplementation of saline solution with cations might stabilize the motility of perch sperm, which can be a benefit for experimental purposes and for specific handling procedures in aquaculture.  相似文献

Sperm were collected in Florida from wild common snook, Centropomus undecimalis (Bloch), and were shipped to Louisiana State University for analysis and cryopreservation. Threshold activation of sperm (10% motility) occurred at 370 mOsmol kg?1, and complete activation occurred at 680 mOsmol kg?1. These values were significantly different. Sperm samples stored at 1°C in Hanks' balanced salt solution (HBSS) or in 0.6% NaCl solution at 200 mOsmol kg?1 retained motility for as long as 22 days. Mean motility remained above 50% for 9 days for sperm stored in HBSS and for 7 days for sperm stored in NaCl solution. Sperm exposed to 5% dimethyl acetamide (62±10%; mean±SD), 10% dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO) (39±16%), 5% glycerol (26±5%) or 10% glycerol (6±2%) for 30 min had significantly lower motility than did unexposed sperm (89±9%). When used as a cryoprotectant, samples frozen with 5% or 10% DMSO or 5% methanol had significantly higher post‐thaw motility than did samples frozen with other cryoprotectants. Sperm cryopreserved with 10% DMSO (38±12%) had significantly higher post‐thaw motility than did sperm cryopreserved with 15% DMSO (19±10%) or 20% DMSO (4±4%). There were no significant differences in hatch rates of eggs fertilized with fresh sperm (54±29%) or cryopreserved sperm (41±35%). Survival to first feeding was not different between fish produced with fresh sperm (37±30%; range, 0–86%) or with thawed sperm (24±29%; 0–77%). Transport of sperm to a cryopreservation laboratory and back to a hatchery for thawing and use enabled collaboration between groups with specific expertise and provides a model for the application of cryopreservation by transport of fresh and frozen samples.  相似文献

Tilapia lake virus (TiLV) is an emerging virus associated with high fish mortality and economic losses. This study investigates the virucidal effects of the following disinfectants (active ingredients) on TiLV: 2.5 ppm iodine, 10 ppm sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), 300 ppm hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), 80 ppm formalin and 5,000 ppm (0.5%) Virkon®. Factors that affect the disinfectants’ efficacy, including temperature, contact time and soiling (organic matter) interference, were examined under conditions mimicking natural aquaculture practices. TiLV inactivation of higher than 5 log10 TCID50 ml?1 was achieved after 10 min and at 28°C for all disinfectants except formalin; similar inactivation levels were reached by NaOCl and Virkon® at 10 min and 4°C. Extended exposure to formalin from 10 to 60 min at 28°C rendered more than 5 log10 inactivation. Increasing synthetic organic matter in the water to mimic soiling interference reduced the efficacy of NaOCl, iodine and H2O2 when tested at 10 min and 28°C; however, Virkon® still achieved more than 5 log10 inactivation. This study demonstrates that most common disinfectants effectively reduced viral loads to minimum levels. To limit the spread of TiLV in aquaculture farms and related facilities, the appropriate use of such disinfectants should therefore be promoted and implemented.  相似文献

In this study, the effects of spermiation time are investigated on milt quality of Russian sturgeon over the course of the spawning season. The milt samples were collected from three broodstock batches at three time points including: the beginning, middle and at the end of the spawning season. According to the results, the milt quality parameters including pH, sperm density, spermatocrit, duration of sperm motility and percentage of sperm motility were significantly low in the beginning and end of season than middle of season. The values of milt quality parameters in the middle of season were as follows: (motility percentage: 69.6 ± 3.5, motility duration: 460.3 ± 37.2 s, sperm density: 8.7 ± 0.4 × 109, milt volume: 86.3 ± 8.1 and milt pH: 8.3 ± 0.15). Significant positive correlations were also found between milt pH and sperm motility as well as between sperm density and spermatocrit. In conclusion, our study showed that the middle of season is the best time for collection of milt with appropriate quality in Russian sturgeon. Selection of milt with good quality is necessary aim to cryopreservation of spermatozoa in endangered fish species including Russian sturgeon.  相似文献

The potential of carp pituitary powder (CPP) at one dose, or the luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LH-RH) analogue, des–Gly10,(d–Ala6)–LH-RH–ethylamide, at three different doses to stimulate spermiation in paddlefish (Polyodon spathula) was tested. Single injections of the LH-RH analogue at 0.2, 0.1, or 0.05 mg·kg–1 increased the number of spermatozoa per kilogram of body weight (kg–1 b.w.) by 4.7, 3.4, and 3.4 times respectively compared to control, but the number of spermatozoa per kilogram of body weight decreased with CPP (4 mg·kg–1) by 1.7 times compared to the control. The LH-RH analogue prolonged active spermiation, with numbers of spermatozoa ranging from 7.69 to 1.19 × 109 kg–1 b.w. up to 96 h after treatment. Analysis of variance showed significant influence of experimental groups on volume of sperm per male and per kilogram of body weight, and the total number of spermatozoa per kilogram of body weight, but insignificant influence on the total number of spermatozoa per male. The percentage of motile spermatozoa was not different between experimental groups for sperm collection at different times after injection. A very high positive correlation (r = 0.93) was obtained between sperm concentration and sperm transmittance measured with a spectrophotometer. This relationship was described with the following linear regression: sperm concentration (× 109 mL–1) = 1.3244 X–0.9969, where X is the percentage of sperm transmittance.  相似文献
