子宫体输精技术对母猪繁殖性能的影响

为研究子宫体输精技术对母猪繁殖性能的影响,将355头长大二元杂后备母猪和931头长大二元杂经产母猪于配种时进行子宫体深部输精。结果显示,子宫体输精的后备母猪分娩率降低2.20个百分点(P>0.05),胎均总仔下降0.39头(P>0.05);子宫体输精的经产母猪胎均总仔极显著提高0.83头(P<0.01),胎均健仔显著提高0.52头(P<0.05),繁殖效率增加至1 223头,精子使用量减少了50%。结果表明,子宫体输精技术并未能提高后备母猪的整体繁殖性能,但能显著提高经产母猪的繁殖性能和大幅度减少精子使用量。     

深部输精对母猪繁殖性能的影响

 试验以78头经产大白母猪为试验材料,采用深部输精技术,以探明深部输精对母猪繁殖性能的影响。试验分三个处理组：第Ⅰ组采用常规输精方法,输精次数3次;第Ⅱ组采用深部输精方法,输精次数3次;第Ⅲ组采用深部输精方法,输精次数为2次。试验结果：常规输精组（第Ⅰ组）和深部输精组（第Ⅱ组）比较,窝均产仔数、窝均产活仔数和窝平均产健仔数分别为11.39头、11.84头、10.52头,和12.40头、11.07头、10.43头,窝均产仔数深度输精高于常规输精,经分析二者达到显著水平（P＜0.05）,而窝均产活仔数和窝均产健仔数差异不显著（P＞0.05）;健仔率比较,常规输精组为91.54%,深部输精组为84.84%,二者差异达到显著水平（P＜0.05）;深度输精三次（第Ⅱ组）和深度输精两次（第Ⅲ组）相比母猪繁殖性状指标间差异均不显著（P＞0.05）。试验结果表明：深部输精可以提高母猪的窝均产仔数,但不能提高窝均产活仔数和健仔数,同时深部输精降低健仔率。     

曲普瑞林对初产母猪定时输精效果的影响

为探讨曲普瑞林对初产母猪定时输精效果的影响,本实验选择健康、体况相近的产后21 d断奶的初产母猪81头,随机分为对照组、生理盐水组、戈那瑞林组和曲普瑞林组。对照组母猪断奶后进行发情鉴定并适时输精,其余3组母猪断奶后24 h注射孕马血清促性腺激素(PMSG),72 h后分别肌肉注射生理盐水2 mL、戈那瑞林100μg、曲普瑞林200μg,间隔24 h、40 h进行定时输精。统计各组母猪发情率、卵泡直径、激素浓度和繁殖性能。结果显示:曲普瑞林组母猪断奶后7 d内发情率(88.46%)最高(P>0.05),卵泡直径在第4天达到最大并高于其他各组(P<0.05);曲普瑞林组的参繁配种率高于对照组(P<0.05),批次妊娠率较对照组有提高趋势(P>0.05),窝产总仔数(11.88头)高于生理盐水组(P<0.05),窝产活仔数为10.13头,与生理盐水组差异不显著,曲普瑞林组的仔猪指数较生理盐水组提高144头(P>0.05)。综上,曲普瑞林应用于定时输精程序可提高初产母猪的繁殖性能及利用率。     

定时输精对经产母猪繁殖性能及生殖激素的影响

试验旨在建立高效的经产母猪定时输精（timed artificial insemination,TAI）技术,研究了定时输精对经产母猪繁殖性能、断奶-分娩间隔、不同胎次母猪产仔性能及断奶后7 d内血清生殖激素水平的影响。选取309头2~8胎次二元（长×大）经产母猪,随机分为对照组和试验组,对照组母猪进行常规人工授精（artificial insemination,AI）,试验组母猪进行断奶后24 h注射PMSG 1 000 IU,间隔72 h注射GnRH 100 μg,在注射GnRH后24和40 h各输精1次的定时输精技术。通过统计两组母猪的断奶1周内发情率、受胎率、分娩率、窝均产仔数等,判断定时输精对经产母猪繁殖性能的影响;通过对断奶时间和分娩时间的统计,检测定时输精对经产母猪断奶-分娩间隔的影响;用放射免疫（RIA）方法检测2~4胎次母猪断奶1周内血清E₂、LH、FSH和P₄的含量,研究定时输精对母猪生殖激素的影响。结果显示,试验组母猪发情率显著高于对照组（P<0.05）,但两组间受胎率、分娩率差异不显著（P>0.05）,窝均产仔数、窝均合格仔数和繁殖效率有增加的趋势,但差异不显著（P>0.05）;定时输精显著缩短了母猪的断奶-分娩间隔（P<0.05）。在胎次方面,3~4胎母猪使用定时输精的效果较好,其发情率、受胎率和分娩率均显著高于对照组（P<0.05）。在生殖激素方面,试验组E₂水平在注射PMSG后迅速上升,且在定时输精处理后66~96 h内持续高于对照组（P<0.05）,试验组P₄水平在断奶后至配种前显著低于对照组（P<0.05）,但配种后快速升高,并高于对照组;LH和FSH的含量在两组间无显著差异。综上,定时输精可有效提高经产母猪的断奶发情率,并减少其非生产天数,可显著提高3~4胎母猪的繁殖性能。     

日粮中使用NUTRI-PAL对夏季初产母猪繁殖性能的影响

试验以20头妊娠90d的初产母猪(长白×大白)为试验动物,研究日粮中使用5%Nutri-Pal对其繁殖性能的影响。试验分对照组及5%Nutri-Pal试验组。结果表明:与对照组相比,试验组母猪的采食量略有提高(P>0.05),窝产活仔数增加0.55头、初生窝重增加1.57kg、断奶后7d内发情率提高了22.3%,弱仔、死胎、木乃伊的比例均有不同程度的下降,但母猪窝总产仔数、断奶到发情的间隔无显著差异(P>0.05)。仔猪15日龄窝重、断奶窝重比对照组分别提高了3.53kg和5.56kg,死亡率下降了37.57%。结果显示,日粮中使用5%Nutri-Pal能促进夏季初产母猪的繁殖性能。     

有机微量元素对初产母猪生产性能及血液指标的影响

为研究有机微量元素对初产母猪生产性能及血清指标的影响,挑选体重相近、健康的初产怀孕80d的母猪40头,随机分为对照和试验组,每组5个重复,每个重复4头猪。对照组母猪在基础日粮中添加无机微量元素添加剂,试验组母猪从妊娠85d开始,在对照组日粮基础上再补充添加0.15%的有机微量元素添加剂,至泌乳期结束。结果表明:(1)母猪饲料中补充有机微量元素后,可显著提高活仔率、健仔数与健仔率(P0.05);有提高活仔数和断奶重的趋势(P0.05);对产程、总产仔数、初生重无影响。(2)补充有机微量元素显著提高了母猪血清中铁含量(P0.05),也显著提高了母猪和仔猪血清中IgA含量(P0.05)。这表明母猪日粮中添加有机微量元素有利于改善母猪繁殖性能。     

妊娠后期营养水平对初产母猪繁殖性能及血液生化指标的影响

为研究妊娠后期营养水平对初产母猪体况、繁殖性能及血液生化指标的影响,本试验选用背膘厚及体重相近的初产杂交母猪36头,按体况和配种时间随机分为3组（Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ组）,每组6个重复,每个重复2头母猪,饲喂营养水平依次为维持需要的1.5、2.0和2.5倍的日粮,母猪妊娠81 d时开始试验至母猪分娩结束,试验期33 d。结果显示,分娩时Ⅰ组母猪背膘厚显著低于Ⅲ组（P<0.05）,断奶时各组背膘厚度差异不显著（P>0.05）;Ⅰ组母猪泌乳期背膘损失显著低于Ⅲ组（P<0.05）;Ⅲ组母猪分娩后体重、分娩前体重均显著高于Ⅰ组（P<0.05）,各组母猪妊娠81 d体重及泌乳期失重等差异均不显著（P>0.05）。试验组间窝产仔数、窝产活仔数、断奶个体重及母猪断奶-发情间隔均无显著差异（P>0.05）;Ⅲ组仔猪初生均重、断奶窝重、泌乳期窝增重均显著高于Ⅰ组（P<0.05）。随营养水平升高,Ⅱ、Ⅲ组雌激素水平显著高于Ⅰ组（P<0.05）;各组催乳素和孕酮水平差异不显著（P>0.05）;Ⅰ组甘油三酯水平显著低于Ⅱ、Ⅲ组（P<0.05）;各组尿素氮和葡萄糖含量随营养水平的升高逐渐增大,且差异显著（P<0.05）;Ⅲ组胰岛素含量显著高于I组（P<0.05）;各组总蛋白含量无显著差异（P>0.05）。结果提示,母猪妊娠后期饲喂营养水平为2.0倍维持需要的日粮时可使后备母猪分娩时体况达到标准水平,而饲喂营养水平为2.5倍维持需要的日粮可使母猪产仔性能得到提高。     

Effects of Pre‐Weaning Energy Substitutions on Post‐Weaning Follicle Development,Steroid Hormones and Subsequent Litter Size in Primiparous Sows

The present study investigated the effects of pre‐weaning energy substitutions on follicular development, endocrine characteristics and subsequent litter size in primiparous sows. Sows were fed a standard lactation diet (14.1 DE MJ/kg) and then allocated to a Control (C, n = 24), Fat (F, n = 23), Sugar (S, n = 23) or post‐weaning Regumate (positive control; R, n = 22) treatment at 9 days before weaning of the C, F and S treatments. During the treatment period (8 days), 1 kg of the lactation diet was substituted with 1 kg of a fat‐rich (F, 23.85 DE MJ/kg) or sugar‐rich (S, 15.75 DE MJ/kg) substitution for F and S sows, respectively. For the R treatment, sows were weaned 8 days earlier than other treatments and fed a lactation diet at 3.5 kg with two doses of altrenogest as topdressing from 1 day before weaning until the day on which the other sows were weaned. The F treatment aimed to increase energy intake, and the S treatment aimed to elevate post‐prandial glucose and insulin concentrations. Weaning‐to‐ovulation interval tended to be reduced in the S treatment compared with C (p = 0.06) and F (p = 0.08) treatments. Body weight (BW) loss during the treatment period, post‐weaning follicle development, plasma oestradiol and pre‐weaning leptin did not differ among C, F and S sows, although BW loss was lower and leptin was higher in the R treatment. Post‐ovulatory progesterone concentration in the S treatment was higher (p < 0.05). Sows in the S and R treatments had a greater proportion of litters with larger litter sizes (p < 0.05). The outcome suggests that increasing circulating insulin and glucose concentrations during late lactation or a week of metabolic recovery positively improves subsequent litter size in primiparous sows.     

Gonadotropin‐induced Puberty Does Not Impair Reproductive Performance of Gilts over Three Parities

The aim of this study was to evaluate the reproductive performance of three parities of gilts treated or not treated with gonadotropin to induce puberty. Sixty gilts received 600 IU of equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG) followed by 2.5 mg of porcine luteinizing hormone (LH) 72 h later. Fifty‐nine other gilts were exposed only to a mature boar for 15 min twice daily. Artificial insemination (AI) was performed at 0, 12 and 24 h after the detection of oestrus, and gestation was confirmed by ultrasound after 35 days. Sows were inseminated at the first post‐weaning oestrus. The total numbers of piglets born, piglets born alive, stillborn, mummified foetuses, as well as pregnancy and farrowing rates were evaluated for each of the three parities. Culling rates, farrowing intervals and weaning‐to‐oestrous intervals (WEI) were also analysed. Mean age at puberty and oestrous manifestation were not significantly different between treatments (p = 0.0639; 179.20 ± 17.52 compared with 173.96 ± 16.94, 91.66% compared with 94.92%) across the experimental period. However, females that underwent puberty induction showed modest increases both in the number of total pigs born and in the number of piglets born alive. In conclusion, puberty induction through exogenous gonadotropin administration in field conditions did not induce a more concentrated first oestrous manifestation, but trended to a modest increase in the number of pigs born alive in the first parity and a reduced culling rate during the first gestation.     

日粮中添加天蚕素抗菌肽对母猪繁殖性能的影响

为探讨日粮中添加天蚕素抗菌肽对母猪生产性能的影响,试验选取32头二胎经产母猪,采用单因子完全随机设计,分为试验组和对照组,试验组从母猪分娩前30 d到产后21 d添加400 kg/mg天蚕素抗菌肽,对照组按猪场正常药物保健程序进行（母猪产前产后在饲料中添加阿莫西林400 kg/mg和支原净300 kg/mg）。结果表明,对照组的活仔率、健仔率均极显著低于试验组（P＜0.01）;试验组初生重、21 d体重、日增重和成活率均高于对照组,但差异不显著（P＞0.05）;试验组的腹泻率显著低于对照组（P＜0.05）。     

长大二元杂种母猪的胎龄变化与其繁殖性能的关系

以长大二元杂种母猪为研究对象,应用SPSS 19.0软件的单因素方差分析对79 679个胎次的产仔数据进行分析,以研究母猪胎龄变化与其繁殖性能的关系。结果显示,母猪群分娩率和胎均总仔数的高峰值主要集中在第3—6胎,在第7胎或第8胎后出现逐步下降。此外,母猪群在剔除连续第1—2胎的总仔数均小于10头的母猪个体后,其群体的平均分娩率提升至94.58%,极显著提高了2.30个百分点(P<0.01);胎均总仔数达到12.78头,极显著提高了0.50头(P<0.01)。结果表明,通过前2胎的成绩来优化种猪群体,能够极显著提升繁殖性能。     

The Effect of Post-Ovulatory Artificial Insemination on Sow Reproductive Performance

In order to increase reproductive performance, sows are usually inseminated several times during oestrus. In practice, this results in a significant number of sows receiving one or more post‐ovulatory inseminations. This study was carried out to determine the percentage of sows that receive one or more post‐ovulatory inseminations and the effect of such treatment on reproductive performance. The results were analysed from a total of 1298 sows on two farms. It was observed that more than 70% of the sows received at least one post‐ovulatory insemination and approximately 20% received two or more. There was no observed effect on the rate of return to oestrus, farrowing rate or litter size (p > 0.05).

Effects of Feeding Dry Glycerol to Primiparous Holstein Dairy Cows on Follicular Development,Reproductive Performance and Metabolic Parameters Related to Fertility during the Early Post‐partum Period

This study examined the effects of dry glycerol supplementation on follicular growth, post‐partum interval to first ovulation, concentration of serum metabolites and hormones related to fertility, body condition score (BCS) and body weight (BW) in primiparous Holstein dairy cows. Sixty primiparous Holstein dairy cows were randomly assigned to two groups (control: n = 30 and glycerol supplemented: n = 30). Dry glycerol (250 g/day/cow) was fed as a top dressing to the common lactating total mixed ration (TMR) from parturition to 21 days post‐partum. Ovaries were examined four times using ultrasonography on days 13, 19, 25 and 36 post‐partum to determine ovarian follicular growth. Concentration of serum metabolites and hormones was determined weekly. Body condition score was evaluated weekly from weeks 1 to 5 after parturition, and BWs were recorded three times on days 1, 11 and 21 during the experimental period. The cows fed dry glycerol had more large follicles (p < 0.0001) and corpora lutea (CL) (p = 0.02) compared with the control cows. Days to the first ovulation (p = 0.06), days to first oestrus (p = 0.05), services per conception (p = 0.06) and days open (p = 0.004) were positively affected by dry glycerol supplementation. Serum concentration of glucose and insulin was higher in dry glycerol‐supplemented cows (p = 0.1; p = 0.06, respectively). Feeding glycerol had no effect on mean serum concentrations of β‐hydroxybutyrate, non‐esterified fatty acids and IGF‐1 during the experimental period. However, significant differences were observed at concentration of BHBA and IGF‐1 (p = 0.02 and p = 0.04, respectively) between two groups on day 21 after calving. The cows in the glycerol‐fed group had higher serum progesterone concentrations on days 33 (p = 0.007) and 36 (p = 0.004) after calving. Supplemented cows had lower body condition loss during weeks 1–5 after calving compared with the control cows (0.34 vs 0.41 BCS). In week 13 post‐partum, the proportion of cycling cows was 83.3 and 69.9% for those which received supplemented or non‐supplemented diet, respectively. These results demonstrated that feeding dry glycerol as a glucogenic supply may be useful to improve negative energy balance and reproductive efficiency in young cows which calve with high requirement of energy.     

大长二元初产母猪乳常规成分及泌乳性能的研究

为探讨目前商品肉猪的主要母本大长二元初产母猪的乳成分变化规律及在实行分胎次饲喂情况下的泌乳性能,分别对20头大长二元初产母猪产后1d、7d、14d、21d、28d乳常规成分、泌乳次数和泌乳量进行了测定。结果表明,大长二元初产母猪产后1d与7d、14d、21d、28d的乳成分相比变化幅度均较大,乳糖、乳脂、乳蛋白和总固形物都达到了极显著水平(P0.01);乳糖和乳脂在28d泌乳期内总体来看逐渐升高,但乳脂在28d时有所回落;乳蛋白和总固形物逐渐降低,1d最高,28d最低;大长二元初产母猪平均每昼夜泌乳次数为24.63次,单次泌乳量为0.28kg,日平均泌乳量为6.74kg,泌乳高峰出现在第14~21d。结合乳成分和泌乳量的变化特点,提示仔猪21~28d断奶更为科学。     

Effects of Inulin Supplementation in Low‐ or High‐Fat Diets on Reproductive Performance of Sows and Antioxidant Defence Capacity in Sows and Offspring

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of inulin supplementation in low‐ or high‐fat diets on both the reproductive performance of sow and the antioxidant defence capacity in sows and offspring. Sixty Landrace × Yorkshire sows were randomly allocated to four treatments with low‐fat diet (L), low‐fat diet containing 1.5% inulin (LI), high‐fat diet (H) and high‐fat diet containing 1.5% inulin (HI). Inulin‐rich diets lowered the within‐litter birth weight coefficient of variation (CV, p = 0.05) of piglets, increased the proportion of piglets weighing 1.0–1.5 kg at farrowing (p < 0.01), reduced the loss of body weight (BW) and backfat thickness (BF) during lactation (p < 0.05) and decreased the duration of farrowing as well as improved sow constipation (p < 0.05). Sows fed fat‐rich diets gained more BW during gestation (p < 0.01), farrowed a greater number of total (+1.65 pigs, p < 0.05) and alive (+1.52 pigs p < 0.05) piglets and had a heavier (+2.06 kg, p < 0.05) litter weight at birth as well as a decreased weaning‐to‐oestrous interval (WEI, p < 0.01) compared with sows fed low‐fat diets. However, it is worth noting that the H diet significantly decreased the serum activities of superoxide dismutase (T‐SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GSH‐Px) and increased the serum malondialdehyde (MDA) levels in sows and piglets (p < 0.05). In contrast, HI diet enhanced the activities of T‐SOD and GSH‐Px and decreased the serum MDA concentrations (p < 0.05) in sows and piglets. In summary, the fat‐rich diets fed to sows during gestation had beneficial effects on reproductive performance, but aggravated the oxidative stress in sow and piglets. Inulin‐rich diets fed to sow during gestation had beneficial effects on within‐litter uniformity of piglet birthweight and enhanced the antioxidant defence capacity of sows and piglets.     

L-肉碱对母猪繁殖性能的影响及其作用机理

L-肉碱的基本生物学功能在于参与长链脂肪酸在线粒体的转运过程,对于畜禽生长发育及肉质改善具有良好的作用。近年来,发现在妊娠和泌乳母猪日粮中添加L-肉碱还能改善母猪繁殖性能,主要表现为改善母猪自身体况及繁殖能力,促进胎儿的生长发育,增加仔猪的初生重及断奶重。母猪体况的改善可能与L-肉碱改变脂肪、蛋白质代谢有关;仔猪初生重的增加可能与肉碱影响胰岛素样生长因子系统(IGFs)促进胎盘生长,促进胎儿葡萄糖的氧化利用有关;而新生仔猪断奶重的提高则可能与仔猪吮乳习惯的改变和母猪泌乳量的增加有关。     

影响母猪繁殖性能的营养因素及调控措施

近年来随着中国养猪业不断规模化、集约化的发展,如何提高母猪的繁殖性能已成为养猪行业的热点。母猪的繁殖性能受遗传、营养、环境、健康状况等因素综合影响,其中营养因素是十分重要的因素之一。在母猪饲养管理的不同阶段采取一些简单可行的营养学方法,会显著提高母猪繁殖性能。作者在分析影响母猪繁殖性能的营养因素的基础上,提出了在母猪不同饲养阶段所采取的营养调控措施。     

妊娠母猪膘情对繁殖性能的影响

为研究妊娠母猪膘情与繁殖性能的关系,试验随机选用32头妊娠母猪,用B超活体测定其产前3 d倒数3、4肋骨间、胸腰椎结合处、腰荐椎结合处偏离背中线5~8 cm处背膘厚,并与其窝产仔数、产活仔数、死胎数、、仔猪初生重、初生窝重、18日龄断奶重、断奶窝重及断奶后发情天数等指标进行比较。结果显示,背膘厚度较薄组各项繁殖指标普遍优于背膘厚组,说明保持适当膘情对妊娠母猪繁殖性能的提高具有促进作用。
