| description | This experiment was conducted to study the effects of different dietary oil sources on qualitative and
quantitative features of Malaysian village rooster’s semen. Forty five Malaysian village roosters (BA Breed)
at 30 weeks of age were randomly assigned to 1 of the 3 dietary treatments with 3 oil sources (fish oil, vegetable
oil and cooked oil). Semen collected from roosters 2 times a week and analyzed by computer-assisted sperm
analyzer (Hamilton Thorne Motility Analyzer; IVOS, Beverly, MA). The viability (live to dead spermatozoa ratio)
was measured using eosin-nigrosin smears under light microscope and semen volume was determined by
reading the scale on the tube. The results showed that in comparison to either vegetable or cooked oils, the
addition of fish oil as a source of omega3 fatty acids to diets, significantly (P < 0.05) increased motile
spermatozoa and average smoothed path velocity (VAP) but decreased static type of spermatozoa in village
rooster’s semen (P < 0.05). Conversely, the addition of cooked oil decreased motility and VAP of rooster’s
semen (P < 0.05). Dietary treatments with different oil sources had no significant effect on progressive traits
such as semen volume, semen concentration and live and dead spermatozoa (P > 0.05). It was concluded that
the addition of polyunsaturated fatty acids may improve semen quality in hot climates. |
