Fecha de publicación: | 2019 | Editor: | Elsevier | Citación: | Animal Reproduction Science 200: 60-66 (2019) | Resumen: | In this study, there was an examination of the effect on the characteristics of cryopreserved black-footed (Spheniscus demersus) and gentoo (Pygoscelis papua) penguin semen, of thawing at 37 and 5 °C. For two consecutive years, semen was collected and frozen during the April-June period from six gentoo penguins, and during the October-November period from 13 black-footed penguins. After thawing, sperm motility variables were examined by computer-assisted sperm analysis. Propidium iodide and SYBR-14 were used as fluorochromes for the examination of membrane integrity. For the gentoo penguins, no differences were detected in the values of frozen-thawed semen characteristics after thawing at 37 or 5 °C. For the black-footed penguins, however, thawing at 5 °C resulted in greater values (P < 0.05) for straight-line velocity (VSL), average path velocity (VAP), linearity (LIN), straightness (STR), and wobble (WOB) as compared with thawing at 37 °C. After thawing at 37 ºC, there were greater values with gentoo penguin sperm for percentage motile sperm, progressive motility, curvilinear velocity (VCL), VSL VAP, LIN, STR, WOB and beat-cross frequency (BCF; P < 0.05) than that for black-footed penguin sperm. After thawing at 5 ºC, there were no differences in values for any variables between the two species. In conclusion, thawing temperature affects semen characteristics in a species-specific manner. The present data strongly suggest that cryopreservation procedures should be adapted for use with each penguin species. Cryopreserved black-footed penguin semen should be thawed after cryopreservation at 5 ºC, while that of gentoo penguins can be thawed at either 5 or 37 ºC. | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/10261/290655 | DOI: | 10.1016/j.anireprosci.2018.11.011 | ISSN: | 0378-4320 |
