Comparative Study on the Sperm Proteomes of Horses and Donkeys

Animals, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 14(15), P. 2237 - 2237

The reproductive performance of horse sperm and donkey has been reported to differ. Sperm proteins play a crucial role in viability fertility. Although differences between species are known, no prior study investigated disparities the proteome horses donkeys. Therefore, this characterized compared proteomes donkeys using 4D-DIA mass spectrometry technology. We identified 3436 3404 sperm. Of these, 3363 were expressed both sperm, with 73 being specifically 41 According data analysis, exhibited greater percentage motility progressive movement straight-line than horses, as well lower percentages static slow horses. Joint analysis results from their CEROS II-read parameters demonstrated possible association patterns. These findings suggest that there discrepancies expression levels protein compositions certain specific may be responsible for these two species.

Genetic Polymorphisms in Genes Associated with Mammalian Semen Quality Traits: A Review

Agriculture, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 14(12), P. 2137 - 2137

Semen quality traits, including sperm morphology, shape, count, ejaculate volume, low percentage of motile spermatozoa in semen, and motility, play a crucial role male reproductive efficiency fertilization success. This review article highlighted the impact genetic polymorphisms genes on semen fertility traits mammalians. Single nucleotide (SNPs) these were associated with various abnormalities, such as abnormal flagella reduced impaired DNA integrity, altered antioxidant status, disrupted head–tail junction, spermatogenesis defects, testicular size, range disorders. comprehensive available literature offers significant insights into factors influencing which can contribute to development markers enhancement through assisted selective breeding programs.
