We have constructed a cDNA library from the whole body of the spider, Araneus ventricosus. Sequence analysis of randomly selected cDNA clones was performed to obtain genetic information on the spider A. ventricosus, of which genetic information is currently not available. We have partially sequenced randomly selected 385 clones of the cDNA library constructed from A. ventricosus. This expressed sequence tags (EST) analysis revealed 383 genes had high homologies to known genes in GenBank. In this report, 241 independent genes were analyzed in detail.

The present study was performed on farm animals to test the effectiveness of progesterone-releasing intravaginal device (Cue-Mate® 1.56 g) and injection of prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) for synchronization estrus in Hanwoo cattle. The cattle were at random stage of the estrus cycle. The cows were artificially inseminated at day 7 after Cue-Mate withdrawal, using commercial semen from Korean native bulls. There was a season effect on the estrus synchronization rate. It was higher in spring (94.3%) followed by winter (93.3%), autumn (90.4%) and summer (67.2%). In summary, The results of this study revealed that season has influences on estrus behavior of cattle with no significant effect on pregnancy rate. In summary, we suggest summer reproductive management to alleviate the effects of heat stress. It should be based on intensive cooling combined with hormonal treatment. Given that different subgroups of cows benefit differently from the treatments, selective hormonal administration should be considered.

In this study, we examined total number, motility and plasma membrane integrity of epididymal spermatozoa from cauda epididymis of bull after preservation at 4ºC. Totally, 23 testicles were castrated from 23 bulls (mean±standard error, age of days = 426.0±7.3, body weight (kg) = 379.7±8.4, scrotal circumference (cm) = 31.0±0.4) at Hanwoo Research Institute, NIAS, and transported to laboratory and preserved on 1, 4 and 6 days at 4 ºC. As control, epididymal spermatozoa recovery from 7 testicles was conducted after transportation to laboratory immediately. In experiment 1, we compared total number of spermatozoa among groups. Total number of spermatozoa from epididymis was not significantly on different preservation day of 0, 1, 4 and 6 which is 1778.0±304.7, 1824.8±343.9, 1228.4±91.7, 1201.8±178.6×106 cells/ml, respectively). In experiment 2, we examined spermatozoa motility and motility parameters (VCL (μm/s), VSL (μm/s), VAP (μm/s), LIN (%)) by computer assisted sperm analysis (SCA, MicroOptic) system. Percentage of motile on 0 and 1 day (88.9±5.2 and 85.8±6.1) was significantly higher than that on 4 and 6 days (32.6±6.5 and 34.3±8.25). Percentage of VCL (μm/s) on 0 and 1 day (93.5±7.6 and 83.0±14.9) was significantly higher than that on 4 and 6 days (36.6±5.1 and 39.5±5.5) (p<0.05). Percentage of VSL (μm/s) on 0 day (28.0±2.1) was significantly higher than that on 1, 4 and 6 days (20.2±3.0, 9.0±2.0 and 8.5±1.6, p<0.05). Percentage of VAP (μm/s) on 0 and 1 days (49.4±3.8 and 41.3±6.6) was significantly higher than that on 4 and 6 days (18.2±3.0 and 19.3±2.8, p<0.05). Percentage of LIN (%) on 0 day (30.7±2.6) was significantly higher than that on 4 and 6 days (23.4±2.7 and 21.1±1.0, p<0.05). Motility of spermatozoa was divided into 4 groups (fast progresive, slow progressive, non-progressive and immotile) based on WHO guideline. Percentage of fast progressive on day at 0 was significantly higher than that on 1, 4 and 6 days (0, 1, 4 and 6 days vs. 19.8±1.9, 10.2±1.1, 2.6±1.0 and 2.3±1.2%, respectively). In conclusion, cauda epididymal spermatozoa should be recovered within one day after preservation at 4 ºC to recover high quality of epididymal spermatozoa in Hanwoo bull

The recovery of epididymal sperm in animals is considered as one of the important tools to preserve high value or endangered species. However, there are no appropriate castrating indicators such as months of age in bull, sperm morphology, and motility, particularly in young Korean native bull (Hanwoo). Therefore, this study aimed to investigate sperm number, morphology, and motility of sperm in the epididymis tail of young Hanwoo bulls at 8 and 15 months of age. After castration, epididymal tails were collected and minced with blades to recover sperm. In experiments 1 and 2, sperm number, morphology, and motility were examined. Total number of sperm and percentage of normal sperm from bulls at 8 months of age was lower than that of bulls at 15 months of age after collection (P<0.05). Percentage of abnormal head, tail, proximal cytoplasmic droplet, dead and damaged acrosome of sperm from bulls at 8 months of age were higher than those of bulls at 15 months of age (P<0.05). In experiment 3, sperm motility from bulls at 8 and 15 months of age were examined before freezing and after thawing. Frozen-thawed sperm at 8 months of age showed low total motility and motile sperm with ≥ 25 μm/sec compared to those at 15 months of age and commercially-used sperm (P<0.05). In conclusion, sperm derived from the epididymal tail of bulls at 8 months of age showed high abnormal morphology and poor motility, which are not adequate for AI and IVF. On the other hand, sperm derived from the epididymal tail of bulls at 15 months of age showed high normal morphology and motility.

In this study, we examined number, motility and plasma membrane integrity of spermatozoa from six regions of epididymis in bull. Six testicles with epididymides were castrated from six bulls (mean±standard error, age of days = 441.3±9.6, body weight (kg) = 367±8.4, scrotal circumference (cm) = 30.7±0.4) at Hanwoo Research Institute, NIAS and transported to laboratory within 1 hour. Testicular weight, length, width and circumference were recorded. Epididymis in each bull was randomly used for recovery of spermatozoa. Epididymis was divided into six regions: efferent duct (ED), caput, corpus, proximal cauda (Pcauda), distal cauda (Dcauda) and vas deferens (VD). In experiment 1, we examined sperm number of each region of epididymis. Each region of epididymis contained different number of spermatozoa: ED (37.8±15.7 × 106cells/ml, 8.2%), caput (93.6±18.8 × 106cells/ml, 20.2%), corpus (33.0±8.5 × 106cells/ml, 7.1%), Pcauda (104.2±23.5 × 106cells/ml, 22.5%), Dcauda (180.5±32.5 × 106cells/ml, 39.0%) and VD (14.0±5.0 × 106cells/ml, 3.0%). In experiment 2, sperm motility of each epididymal region was examined by computer assisted sperm analysis (SCA, MicroOptic) system. Sperm motility was divided into 4 groups (fast progressive, slow progressive, non-progressive and immotile) based on WHO guideline. Percentages of fast progressive of Pcauda and Dcauda (11.0±2.3 and 15.4±3.6%) were significantly higher than that of ED, Caput, Corpus and VD which is 0.1±0.1, 1.5±0.6, 1.9±0.7 and 0.3±0.2%, respectively (p<0.05). In experiment 3, percentage of intact plasma membrane spermatozoa of each regions were examined by hypoosmotic swelling test. Percentages of intact plasma spermatozoa were not significantly different among six regions of epididymis: ED, caput, corpus, Pcauda, Dcauda and VD which is 68.0±8.6, 74.0±5.3, 68.5±6.2, 70.8±5.5, 71.0±5.8 and 64.6±10.8%, respectively. In conclusion, in the present study, we found out distribution, motility and plasma membrane integrity of spermatozoa from six regions of epididymis in Hanwoo bull. These results will be contributed to basic research about spermatozoa transportation and characters in epididymis of bull.

The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of different heights from liquid nitrogen (LN2) vapor on sperm motility and morphology after frozen-thawing. Two ejaculates were collected from 2 fertile Hanwoo bulls (A and B) by using artificial vagina at Hanwoo Research Institute. After collection, ejaculates were transferred to laboratory immediately and diluted with semen extender (Optixcell, France). Sperm dilutions were extended to a final concentration of 40 x 106 sperm/ml, and cooled at 4°C for 4 h and loaded to 0.5 ml straws. The straws were divided into 2 groups. Straws were placed in 3 or 9 cm of LN2 vapor for 14 min and then plunged into LN2 tank and cryopreserved until evaluation. Sperm motility and motility parameters (total motility, VSL with 25μm≥, VCL, VSL, VAP, LIN, STR, WOB, ALH and BCF) were evaluated by sperm class analysis (SCA, IVOS, Spain) after frozen-thawed. In bull A, 3cm group showed higher percentages of total motility, VSL with 25μm and VAP compared those with 9cm group (98.0 vs. 93.4%, 62.4 vs. 54.0% and 98.6 vs. 93.2%, 3 vs. 9 cm, irrespectively; p<0.001). In bull B, frozen-thawed sperm of 3cm group showed higher percentages of VSL with 25μm, VCL, VSL, VAP and BCF compared with those of 9cm group (43.5 vs. 26.0%, 123.8 vs. 111.6 μm, 62.9 vs. 57.3 μm and 81.5 vs. 72.5 μm; 3 vs. 9 cm, irrespectively; p<0.001). The viability and acrosomal integrity of spermatozoa were evaluated by Trypanblue/Giemsa staining method divided into 4 groups; live and intact acrosome (LIA), live and damaged acrosome (LDA), dead intact acrosome integrity (DIA), dead damaged acrosome (DDA). In bull A, frozen-thawed sperm of 3 and 9cm groups showed no significant difference in LIA, LDA, DIA and DDA. In bull B, 3 cm group showed higher LIA and lower DIA compared with those of 9 cm group (73.2 vs. 23.7% and 23.7 vs. 32.2%, 3 vs. 9 cm, irrespectively; p<0.001). We suspected that 3 cm vapor on LN2 vapor might be affected positively spermatozoa viability and acrosomal integrity compared with 9 cm group. In conclusion, semen freezing procedure in the present study will improve sperm quality after frozen thawing.
