Gonadal and extragonadal sperm reserves were determined in testicular and epididymal tissues obtained from 14 small highland Abyssinian Zebu (SHAZ) and from 15 Borana bulls slaughtered at the Debre Zeit abattoir. Bulls were mature and over six years of age. Body weight and scrotal circumference w...

Gonadal and extragonadal sperm reserves in two breeds of mature Zebu (Bos indicus) bulls in Ethiopia
This paper presents the results of a comparative study conducted to characterize the oestrous phenonenon in Zebu and crossbred cattle and to determine oestrus detection using both androgenized cows and entire bulls. The study was conducted at ILRI Debre Zeit Research Station during the dry season...

Oestrus phenomenon and oestrus detection efficiency using androgenized cows and entire bulls in Boran and Boran x Friesian crossbred cows
Gondal and extragonadal sperm reserves were determined in testicular and epididymis tissues obtained from Boran and Boran X Friesian bulls fed either a high or low plane of nutrition diet for a one-year period. The bulls were 32 months of age at castration. Mean body weights did not differ betwee...
