Hormones
Male Testosterone- critical for sperm development
Female Estrogen- critical for follicle development Progesterone- sustains pregnancy and inhibits new
follicle development Relaxin- causes ligaments around birth canal to relax Oxytocin- causes milk letdown

Male Reproductive System
Testicles- Site of sperm production and
testosterone synthesis Sperm contain ½ of genetic
makeup
Epididymis- Sperm storage and maturation
Scrotum- Protects testes and regulates
temperaturehttp://biotech-adventure.okstate.edu/low/basics/reprod/animal/male/diagram/

Male Reproductive System
Vas Deferans- Transports sperm from
epididymis to urethra
Urethra- tube inside of penis
transports sperm or urine exterior
Penis- organ of copulation http://biotech-adventure.okstate.edu/low/basics/reprod/animal/male/diagram/

Female Reproductive System
http://biotech-adventure.okstate.edu/low/basics/reprod/animal/female/diagram/
Ovaries- Produce egg Egg contains ½ of genetic
makeup Oviducts-
Site of fertilization Transport embryos to
uterus Uterus-
Site of embryonic development during gestation

Female Reproductive System
http://biotech-adventure.okstate.edu/low/basics/reprod/animal/female/diagram/
Cervix- Connects uterus and
vagina Serve as barrier during
pregnancy Vagina-
Female organ of copulation at mating
Opening of bladder Vulva-
External opening of reproductive system

Events of Reproduction
Puberty- Age at which reproductive organs become functional
Female- Reproduction process occurs within Estrous cycle- Repetitive cycle occurring when
pregnancy does not Estrus- “Heat” or receptivity to mating
Fertilization- Egg & Sperm unite Only real male contribution is the sperm
Gestation- Length of time of pregnancy Parturition- Act of giving birth
![Page 9: Animal reproduction](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032616/55a745841a28ab2f518b4638/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Spring)

Specific Signs of Estrus
Cattle: Visually active mounting Sheep: Few external signs Swine: Brace with pressure to back, vocal
grunting Horses: Tease with Stallion and will go
nose to nose

membrane Bonding behavior of
offspring and mother (will vary between species)

Male Transfer of Sperm
Two different ways Let the male and female naturally engage.
Male seeks out female in Estrus All controlled by male and female interaction
Artificial Insemination (AI) Human transfers semen past female cervix Human is in control of male product and female
interaction No contact between male and female
![Page 20: Animal reproduction](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032616/55a745841a28ab2f518b4638/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Artificial Insemination (AI) Pros
Conception rate is high Extends use of superior males
One ejaculate can fertilize many females Reduce incidence of venereal diseases
Individual straw per female Improves record keeping and mgt.
Know exactly who the father is Can accelerate genetic improvements
![Page 21: Animal reproduction](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032616/55a745841a28ab2f518b4638/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Artificial Insemination (AI) Cons
Need to know Estrus Cycle of animal Cost intensive
Pay for someone to AI animals
![Page 22: Animal reproduction](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032616/55a745841a28ab2f518b4638/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
AI Use in Farm Animals
Dairy Cattle: widely used Beef Cattle: limited use (herds hard to
monitor) Sheep: limited use (need to use microscope) Swine: intermediate use Horses: restricted by breed associations
![Page 23: Animal reproduction](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032616/55a745841a28ab2f518b4638/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Basic AI Process
Check for Heat Have all necessary tools
Make sure tools are clean
Clean her exterior surface Go through the AI process
for the species being bred Assessment, record
important information (date, time, who to… etc)

How Animals Differ
Cattle: Follow cervix through anus, guiding the pipette
Sheep: Use microscope to guide pipette Swine: Out of body guiding of pipette Horses: Restricted by breed
![Page 25: Animal reproduction](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032616/55a745841a28ab2f518b4638/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Swine AI Process
Check for Heat Use a teaser bore for
receptivity Listen to see if vocal Swollen vulva with
secretion Apply back pressure
Tight arms Ears flapping

Swine AI Process
Have all necessary tools Catheter/pipette Lube Semen Baby wipes
Make sure tools are clean http://www.ansc.purdue.edu/swine/porkpage/repro/sow2.htm
![Page 27: Animal reproduction](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032616/55a745841a28ab2f518b4638/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Swine AI Process
Put pressure on back to stimulate mounting
Lubricate catheter Insert catheter at a 30-
45 degree angle following vulva
Push in about 4-6 inches
http://www.ansc.purdue.edu/swine/porkpage/repro/mngt3.htm
![Page 28: Animal reproduction](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032616/55a745841a28ab2f518b4638/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Swine AI Process
Move catheter to horizontal position and gently move forward until resistance is felt
Rotate counterclockwise once you have hit resistance
Feel for pressure from cervix (see if holds pipette) Will pulsate up and down
http://www.ansc.purdue.edu/swine/porkpage/repro/mngt3.htm
![Page 29: Animal reproduction](https://reader030.fdocuments.in/reader030/viewer/2022032616/55a745841a28ab2f518b4638/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Swine AI Process
Connect semen onto catheter
Give small squeeze to initiate flow of semen Should suck in herself
DO NOT RUSH After semen is gone give a
five count Rotate catheter clockwise
and gently pull outhttp://www.ansc.purdue.edu/swine/porkpage/repro/mngt3.htm

Assessment AI Process
Make sure semen took by checking that it didn’t leak out or urinated out.
Record important information Date Time Who to Anything else that you feel
is crucialhttp://mtsu32.mtsu.edu:11765/swine.htm
