Terminology
• Objective:
– Define terminology related to reproductive
management and breeding systems including
castration, colustrum, estrus, gestation,
lactation and parturition.
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Terminology
• Castration
– Removing the testicles of the male to
prevent breeding
• Colostrum
– First milk produced after a mammal gives
birth that contains antibodies needed for
immunity.
• Gestation
– Time an animal is pregnant
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Terminology
• Estrus
– When a female is receptive to be bred (also
called ‘in heat’)
• Lactation
– Period of time that milk is secreted by the
mammary glands
• Parturition
– The act of giving birth
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Breeding Systems
• Objective
– Discuss crossbreeding, grading-up,
inbreeding, linebreeding, and purebreeding
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Breeding Systems
• Pure Breeding
– Registered male and female animals
– Angus X Angus
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Breeding Systems
• Cross Breeding
– Mating a male and female of different breeds
– Angus X Hereford = Crossbreed
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Breeding Systems
– Hybrid Vigor
• Superior traits from crossbreeding
• Offspring are better than parents
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Breeding Systems
• Inbreeding
– Mating closely related animals
– Brother X Sister
– Son X Mother
– Father X Daughter
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Breeding Systems
• Linebreeding
– Breeding more distant relatives than
inbreeding
– Can be traced back to a common ancestor,
such as a grandparent
– Cousin X Cousin
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Breeding Systems
• Grading-Up
– Mating purebred male (sires) to unregistered
or crossbred females (dams) to improve herd
– Yorkshire bore X Yorkshire/Hampshire sow

System

Female Tract
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Female Reproductive System
• Ovary - the ovary is comparable to the male
testicle and is the site of gamete production.
– A bovine animal has 20,000 potential eggs per ovary,
while a human female has 400,000 potential eggs per
ovary.
– Ova are fully developed at puberty and are not
continuously produced as in the male.
– All species contain two functional ovaries except for
the hen which has only a left functioning ovary.
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Female Reproductive System
The ovaries have three major functions:
•
•
Gamete production
Secrete estrogen (hormone)
•
•
•
•
•
•
absence of muscle development
development of mammary glands
development of reproductive systems and external
genitalia
fat deposition on hips and stomach (source of energy)
triggering of heat
Form the corpus luteum
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Female Reproductive System
• Infundibulum - the funnel shaped portion of the
fallopian tube near the ovary that catches the ovulated
egg.
• Oviducts- pair of small tubes leading from the ovaries to
the horns of the uterus (5 - 6 inches).
– Fertilization occurs in the oviduct.
– Egg travels from ovary to uterine horn in 3 - 4 days.
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Female Reproductive System
Uterus - Muscular sac connecting fallopian tubes
and cervix
1. Sustains the sperm and aids in its transport
2. Supports embryo and fetus during gestation
3. Expels fetus at parturition
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Female Reproductive System
• Cervix
– Area between the
uterus and vagina
– Normally closed
– Opens at estrus
and parturition
– (2 -3 inches)
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Female Reproductive System
• Vagina - the female organ of copulation
1. admits penis
2. receives semen
3. passageway for fetus at parturition
• Vulva - extended genitalia; opening for both urinary and
genital tracts
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Reproductive Functions (Female)
Steps in the female reproductive process:
1. Ovulation
— Produce gamete (ova or ovum)
— Release of egg(s)
— Infundibulum pushes the ovum into the
fallopian tube

– Period of time when a female will accept a male in
copulation

Reproductive Functions (Female)
3. Gestation
— Fertilization to parturition

Male Reproductive Tract
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Male Reproductive Tract
•
Scrotum - external sac that holds
testicles outside of the body to keep
sperm at 4-5oF cooler than the body
temperature
•
Testicles - the primary male organs of
reproduction
•
•
to produce sperm
to secrete testosterone
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Male Reproductive Tract
•
Epididymis - Long coiled tube that is a path for
sperm
–
–
–
–
Provide passageway for sperm out of the seminiferous
tubules
Storage for sperm
Fluid secretion to nourish sperm
Place for sperm maturation
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Male Reproductive Tract
• Vas Deferens - slender tube from
epididymis to urethra which moves
sperm to the urethra
• Urethra - long tube from bladder to
penis; passageway for urine and sperm
out of the body
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Male Reproductive Tract
• Penis - male organ of copulation
which conveys semen and urine out
of the body
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Male Reproductive Tract
Accessory Glands:
• Seminal vesicles- add fructose and citric acid to
nourish the sperm
•
Prostate Gland - located at the neck of the bladder
–

–
cleans the urethra prior to and during ejaculation
provides minerals for sperm
provides the medium for sperm transport
provides the characteristic odor of semen

Reproduction in Poultry
The poultry oviduct has five parts:
1) Vagina
– Holds the egg until laid
2) Uterus
– Secretes the shell
3) Isthmus
– Adds the two shell membranes
4) Magnum
– Secretes the albumen, egg white
5) Infundibulum
– Where fertilization takes place

Reproduction in Poultry
• Major difference:
– Embryo of livestock develop inside the female’s body
while the embryo of poultry develops inside the egg.
• Poultry only have the left ovary and oviduct
when mature
• The yoke is the ovum
• Takes about 26 hours for egg
to form
• Chicken Incubation
– 21 days

Animal Cell
• The body is made up of millions of tiny cells
• Most of the cell is made up of protoplasm
• Cell parts:
 Nucleus
 Cytoplasm
 Cell membrane

Animal Cell
• nucleus – gives cell ability to grow, to digest food
and to divide, contains chromosomes composed
of genes
• cytoplasm – gives the cell shape and contains
components necessary for cell functions
• cell wall – outside of cell
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Cell Division
• Mitosis
– Increases total number of cells
– Results in animal growth
– Chromosomes pairs are duplicated
• Meiosis
– Produces gametes
– Only have one-half the chromosomes of
normal cells
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Fertilization
• When the sperm from a male reaches the
egg from a female
• Two cells join to form a complete cell
• Pairs of chromosomes are formed again
• Many different combinations of traits are
formed
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Fertilization
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Chromosomes
• Rod shaped bodies
• Made of protein
• Found in the cell
nucleus
• Exist in pairs except
for gamete cells

chromosome pairs
differ for various
animals

Genes
• Located on chromosomes
• Thousands found in each animal
• Control inherited characteristics
– Carcass traits
– Growth rate
– Feed efficiency
• Two types of inherited traits
 Dominant
 Recessive
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Genes
• Dominant gene
– Hides the effect of another gene
– Polled condition in cattle is dominant
– The gene is represented by a capital letter
• Recessive
– Gene that is hidden by another
– The gene is represented by a lower case
letter
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Genes
Example:
The dominant gene is written- P
The recessive gene is written-p
P= Polled
p= horned
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Homozygous and Heterozygous
• Homozygous gene pair
– Carries two genes for a trait
– Polled cow might carry the gene PP
• Heterozygous
– Carries two different genes that affect a trait
– Polled cows might carry a recessive gene with
the dominant Pp
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Predicting Genotype
• Genotype-kind of gene pairs possessed
• Phenotype- the physical appearance of an
animal
• Punnett squares are used to predict genotypes
and phenotypes of animals
WF-R ANIMAL SCIENCE 1
Genotypes
• Three class genotypes
Homozygous Dominant = PP
Homozygous Recessive = pp
Heterozygous = Pp
• P = Polled & p = horned
• Six possible crosses:
PP x PP, PP x Pp, PP x pp, Pp x Pp, Pp x pp,
pp x pp
