Relationships Among Live Weight, Scrotal Circumference and Testis Size in Akkaraman Yearling Rams

Abstract

Live weight (LW), scrotal circumference (SC) and testis size (TS) were measured at necropsy of 44 Akkaraman yearling rams. The average values of LW, SC and TS were 39.67 kg, 26.26 cm and 197.15 cm³, respectively. The correlation coefficients of LW to SC and to TS were 0.324 (P < 0.05) and 0.406 (P < 0.01) respectively. The correlation coefficient between SC and TS was positive and significant ( r = 0.43 , P<0.01).
