“…As shown in Figure -1, there was a correlation between decreased testosterone concentrations and an increased level of abnormal sperm in the group aged 8-10 years (10.20%). Our findings are in line with those of Dasrul et al [6], who reported a relationship between testosterone concentration and semen quality (sperm motility and sperm abnormalities) in Aceh bulls and also crossbred cattle of Holstein Friesian×Tharparkar [20]. Several studies also have shown that low semen quality is associated with a deficiency in testosterone concentrations [21].…”

“…According to Felton-Taylor et al [5], sperm abnormalities reduced the fertilization rate and the ability of sperm to penetrate the zona pellucida. These abnormalities increased in older bulls, possibly due to either low testosterone hormone concentration [6] or low adiponectin concentration [7]. Due to this condition, seminiferous germinal tubules decreased, which play an essential role in spermatogenesis [3].…”

Background and Aim: Capacity for sperm production is affected by age, which is related to the morphology of sperm abnormalities and can affect fertility. The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between age and concentrations of testosterone and adiponectin with sperm abnormalities in Simmental bulls. Materials and Methods: The study used 11 bulls, separated into three groups. The first group consisted of five bulls aged 4-5 years, and the second and third groups each consisted of three bulls, aged 6-7 and 8-10 years, respectively. The average sperm motility of the animals ranged from 57.66±2.60% to 70.17±0.22%. Blood samples were obtained from the coccygeal region of the animals. Testosterone and adiponectin analysis was performed using the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method. Sperm morphology was evaluated using carbol fuchsin-eosin staining according to the Williams method. Finally, correlations between testosterone and adiponectin concentrations, age, and sperm abnormalities were analyzed using Pearson's correlation analysis. Results: The findings revealed a significant correlation (p<0.01) between the concentrations of testosterone and adiponectin (–0.538), age (–0.588), and abnormal sperm morphology (–0.912). Moreover, they revealed that the concentration of testosterone in the bulls aged 8-10 years was lower, at 21.89±4.56 ng/mL, compared to that in the bulls aged 4-5 years, at 36.15±1.29 ng/mL, and 6-7 years, at 35.16±5.39 ng/mL. The findings also revealed a positive correlation between adiponectin concentration and age (0.529) and sperm abnormalities (0.506). The increase in testosterone concentration was inversely related to the adiponectin concentration (–0.538). Moreover, the mean amount of abnormal sperm increased with increasing age: 3.82±0.33% in the group aged 4-5 years, and 4.40±0.72% and 10.20±1.97% in the groups aged 6-7 years and 8-10 years, respectively. Conclusion: The study data indicate that there is a decrease in testosterone concentration, a high adiponectin concentration, and an increase in abnormal sperm with increasing age in bulls.

Indonesia has two National Artificial Insemination Centers (AIC) and more than 15 Regional Artificial Insemination Centers (RAIC) spread across several provinces. Bulls in the AIC must have a high libido and produce good quality semen. This study examines the correlation between libido with semen quality and testosterone concentration to determine potential frozen semen production from Bali bulls in South Sulawesi RAIC. Ten Bali bull were used in this study. Semen collection was carried out twice a week with semen evaluation following the RAIC protocol. At the same time, blood samples and libido measurements were carried out from each bull. The frozen semen production potential was calculated by multiplying the semen volume, motility, and sperm concentration. The results showed that the quality of fresh semen and testosterone concentrations did not differ between high and low libido of Bali bulls. Libido has a positive correlation with semen volume (r= 0.52) and sperm motility (r= 0.62), while testosterone concentration has a negative correlation with semen volume (r= -0.65), sperm motility (r= -0.60), and libido (r= -0.48). Bulls with high and low libido have good frozen semen production potential, ranging from 19,755 – 21,640 straws per year. Bali bulls in RAIC have fresh semen quality and testosterone concentrations under normal conditions, with high potential for frozen semen production, although only 60% of Bali cattle have high libido and 40% have low libido.

“…Notre valeur observée était comparable à celles rapportées pour des taureaux de taille semblable : 22,7 cm a été observée chez des taureaux de race Ndama d'un poids moyen de 151 kg (Akouango et al, 2010). Des valeurs de 29,75 ± 3,18 cm, 27,5 ± 2,12 cm et 28,02 ± 2,23 cm ont été mentionnées respectivement pour des taureaux Bos indicus de race Borgou, Azawak (Akpo et al, 2018) et Aceh (Dasrul et al, 2020). Une valeur moyenne de 25,9 cm a été observée chez des taureaux de race Brune de l'Atlas âgés de 12-18 mois par Rahmani et al (2019).…”

L’étude décrit les paramètres morphométriques et de reproduction, et leurs facteurs d’influence chez 249 taureaux de race Brune de l’Atlas âgés de 15,3 ± 3,7 mois et pesant 165,7 ± 50,7 kg en moyenne. Les hauteurs au garrot, périmètres thoraciques et circonférences scrotales ont été respectivement de 110,8 ± 8,5 cm, 137,2 ± 13,2 cm et 25,5 ± 3,7 cm. En ce qui concerne la libido, 12,8 % des taureaux n’en ont présenté aucune et chez 22,1 % d’entre eux elle s’est avérée excellente. Les moyennes des variables étudiées en fonction de la classe d’âge ont présenté une évolution normale et progressive d’une classe à l’autre, bien que des variations très nettes aient été constatées concernant les valeurs moyennes de l’âge (AgeM), de la hauteur au garrot (HGM) et de la circonférence scrotale (CSM) à l’échelle de la ferme. Nos résultats ont également identifié des corrélations très significatives (p < 0,0001) entre les valeurs moyennes du tour de poitrine (TPM), de la HGM, de la CSM, et celles du poids (PoidsM) et de AgeM. De même, le modèle linaire utilisé a montré un coefficient de détermination (R2) très fort entre TPM, CSM, et âgeM (0,83) et PoidsM (0,62). En revanche, il a été très faible (R2 = 0,35) entre HGM, et AgeM et PoidsM. L’analyse de la variance des paramètres en fonction de la ferme et des classes d’âge a montré un effet très significatif (p < 0,0001) sur l’ensemble de l’effectif et la classe 12–18 mois. Concernant la libido, un effet significatif des scores 2 et 3 pour la classe d’âge 12–18 mois a été constaté.
