Abstract

Bu çalışma, Akkaraman varyetesi Norduz ve Karakaş koçlarında eşeysel davranış özelliklerinin yaşa göre değişimini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Bu amaçla koçlar, yaşlarına göre iki gruba ayrılmış; birinci ve ikinci grubu sırasıyla 3≥ ve 2 yaşlı koçlar oluşturmuştur. Eşeysel davranışların belirlenmesi için birinci n=7 ve ikinci grup n=5 koçlar bireysel olarak 2 günde bir 15 dakika süreyle 3-5 kızgın koyunla test edilmiştir. Çalışmada incelenen davranış özelliklerinden flehmensiz genital organları koklama FSGOK , flehmenli genital organları koklama FGOK , kuyruk kaldırma KK , ses çıkarma SÇ , ejakulasyonsuz EJSBS ve ejakulasyonlu biniş sayısına EJBS ilişkin ortalama değerler sırasıyla; 4.65±0.53, 2.08±0.19, 8.58±0.97, 62.90±6.30, 38.73±3.04 ve 1.29±0.19 bulunmuştur. Biniş süresi BS , ejakulasyon süresi ES ve ejakulasyon etkinliğine EJET ilişkin en küçük kareler ortalamaları sırasıyla; 0.65±0.11 dk, 5.16±0.71 dk ve 0.05±0.006 olarak belirlenmiştir. Çalışmada 3≥ yaş grubu koçlar kuyruk kaldırma, ses çıkarma, ejakulasyonlu biniş sayısı, ejakulasyon süresi ve ejakulasyon etkinliği bakımından 2 yaş grubu koçlardan üstün bulunmuştur P

Abstract

This study was performed to determine the changes of sexual behaviour traits based on age in Norduz and Karakaş rams Akkaraman variety. For this purpose, the rams were divided into two groups according to age. First and second group consisted of 3≥ and 2 years old rams, respectively. To determine sexual behaviours, the rams of the first n=7 and second n=5 groups were tested individually with 3-5 estrous sheep for 15-min periods in each 2 days. The defined values for anogenital investigations without flehmen, anogenital investigations with flehmen, rising of tail, vocalization, mounts without ejaculation and ejaculations in rams were found as 4.65±0.53, 2.08±0.19, 8.58±0.97, 62.90±6.30, 38.73±3.04, 1.29±0.19, respectively. The least squares mean for mounting duration, ejaculation duration and ejaculation efficiency were found as 0.65±0.11 min., 5.16±0.71 min. and 0.05±0.006, respectively. Over the 4 test days, 3≥ years old rams were superior in terms of rising of tail, the vocalization, ejaculations, ejaculation duration and ejaculation efficiency than 2 years old rams P
